AnecdotalHepatocyte growth factor agonist for neurogenesis

Dihexa

Potent neurogenic peptide for cognitive repair.

Overview

Crosses blood-brain barrier and activates c-Met receptors on neurons.

Proposed mechanism

Angiotensin IV analog acting as HGF agonist, activating c-Met receptors to promote synaptogenesis.

What the evidence supports

Evidence rests primarily on self-reported experience. Controlled studies are lacking.

Graded Anecdotal

Case reports, clinician notes, and user-reported outcomes. Recorded for completeness and labelled plainly so it is never mistaken for data.

Anecdotal

Nootropic peptide blend for cognition and mood

Adamax is a research peptide blend reported to combine nootropic and neuroprotective peptide components aimed at enhancing cognitive function, mood stability, and neural recovery. It is marketed primarily for its potential effects on dopaminergic and serotonergic signaling pathways. Evidence is largely limited to preclinical and anecdotal sources, with no published human clinical trials specific to the Adamax formulation.

Pineal-derived peptide for brain and immunity

Cortagen is a synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Pro) derived from the pineal gland and developed within the Russian peptide bioregulator program. It is primarily studied for its neuroprotective and immunomodulatory properties, with research suggesting it may support cortical function, slow age-related neurological decline, and modulate immune responses. Most of its evidence base comes from Russian preclinical and limited clinical studies conducted in the 1980s–2000s.
