Immune & Inflammation
Thymic and immune-modulating peptides studied for immunity and inflammatory conditions.
VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide): Strong Biology, Weak Human Proof
VIP has compelling anti-inflammatory mechanisms in animals, but rigorous human trials have largely failed. Here's the honest evidence picture.
Thymosin Alpha-1: The Immune Modulator With a Real Clinical Track Record
Thymosin alpha-1 has decades of human use and 30+ trials behind it. We unpack where the evidence is genuinely strong, where it is thin, and what it actually does.
Thymalin: A Soviet-Era Thymus Peptide for Immune Rejuvenation, Examined
Thymalin is a Russian thymus-peptide immunomodulator with intriguing COVID and ageing data — but the evidence comes almost entirely from one research group.
PNC-27: The Cancer-Killing Peptide That Hasn't Met a Human Trial
A plain-English, evidence-first look at PNC-27: a clever pore-forming anti-cancer peptide with two decades of lab work but zero registered human trials.
