Pinealon Peptide
Pinealon is a short synthetic peptide composed of three amino acids Glu-Asp-Arg, also known as the EDR peptide.(1)(2) Pinealon is suggested to impact the central nervous system, which may lead to behavior modification while also possibly protecting neurons and various cell types from oxidative stress. The primary research focus on this peptide is evaluating its potential to penetrate the blood-brain barrier, cellular membrane, and nuclear membrane. However, researchers have also suggested that it may also interact directly with DNA molecules.
Pinealon tripeptide is isolated from another chemical compound, Cortexin.(2) Cortexin is a polypeptide with a particularly low molecular weight. Due to this low weigh, Cortexin has been suggested by researchers to cross the blood-brain barrier to produce potential stimulatory action on the neurotransmitters in the brain.(3)
