How it works

Cardiogen is a synthetic bioregulator peptide primarily researched in Russia for its potential to support heart tissue repair and reduce fibrosis. Current evidence is limited to animal models and small-scale clinical observations, with no large-scale human trials available.

A synthetic tetrapeptide that modulates gene expression in heart tissue, specifically targeting fibroblasts and cardiomyocytes to support repair and reduce apoptosis.

Safety

  • Lacks comprehensive long-term human safety data.
  • Potential for cellular proliferation; use caution if there is a history of malignancy.
  • Consult a physician before use as it is an experimental research compound.
