This is Livagen, a 20mg vial of the pure tetrapeptide Lys-Glu-Asp-Ala (KEDA). Think of it as a focused tool from the Khavinson peptide library, built to interact with cellular chromatin structure. If you’re researching cellular aging, immune function, or gene expression patterns, this is a precise compound for your work.
The core idea is chromatin decondensation. In simple terms, DNA is packed tightly inside a cell. Livagen appears to help unpack it. This unpacking can potentially activate genes that have been silenced, particularly in lymphocytes (key immune cells) and gastrointestinal tract tissues. The research suggests it may help shift gene expression profiles in aged cells to patterns resembling younger states. That’s the primary mechanism we’re looking at.
Key Research Points for Livagen (20mg):
- Target: Chromatin structure in lymphocytes, liver, GI tract.
- Proposed Action: May promote decondensation of heterochromatin, potentially activating silenced genes.
- Immune System Focus: Studies note altered NOR activity and acrocentric chromosome association in lymphocytes, which may influence ribosomal RNA synthesis and overall cell function.
- Systemic Effects: Through immune modulation, research indicates potential secondary impacts on cardiac tissue models, GI mucosal protection, and hepatic antioxidant systems.
- Enkephalin Research: Shows potential to inhibit degradation of enkephalin, an endogenous pain-signaling peptide, in in vitro studies.
Specifications:
- Sequence: Lys-Glu-Asp-Ala (KEDA)
- Molecular Formula: C18H31N5O9
- Molecular Weight: 461.5 g/mol
- Purity: >99% (See CoA for batch-specific data)
- Format: 20mg lyophilized powder in sterile vial.
Important Research Context: The findings referenced, including work by Khavinson and Lezhava, point to Livagen’s potential in models of age-related chromatin condensation. Its value lies in its targeted approach as a short-chain peptide bioregulator for controlled laboratory study.
