Vilon Peptide
Vilon is a dipeptide composed of amino acids lysine and glutamic acid. It also goes by the name ‘Lysylglutamic Acid or Lysylglutamate.'(1) It is the shortest peptide suggested to possess potential action in the immune system, possibly mitigate cancer cell proliferation, and potentially induce anti-aging action within cells, possibly working on tissues within the liver, heart, and kidney. Vilon appears to exert its potential by possible interaction with the chromatin structure.
Vilon peptide research has also led to the postulating of several research hypotheses, including that the peptide may act to unroll chromatin structures, that it may activate ribosomal genes stimulating the synthetic process, that it may release inactive genes, and that it may not decondense the chromatin situated on each side of the centromere of the chromosome. Through its potential action on the chromatin, Vilon may possibly alter DNA structure to reactivate the genes and cells that have gone ‘silent.’
