Retatrutide
Summary
Bronchogen is a tetrapeptide bioregulator (Ala-Glu-Asp-Leu) developed by Professor Vladimir Khavinson at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology. It is a tissue-specific bioregulator designed for the bronchi and lungs, promoting normalization of bronchial epithelial cell function. Research suggests benefits for respiratory health, protection against pulmonary aging, and support for bronchopulmonary conditions.
Retatrutide is an investigational triple receptor agonist targeting GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors simultaneously. Phase 2 trials showed an unprecedented average 24% body weight reduction at 48 weeks — exceeding any approved medication to date. It is in Phase 3 trials as of 2024.

Key Benefits
  • Tissue-specific support for bronchial and lung health
  • Promotes normalization of bronchial epithelial cell function
  • Potential benefits in chronic bronchitis and COPD support
  • Anti-aging effects on pulmonary tissue
  • May reduce frequency of respiratory infections
  • Supports lung function preservation with aging
  • Compatible with other Khavinson bioregulator peptides
  • ~24% body weight reduction at 48 weeks in Phase 2 (highest dose)
  • Superior to both semaglutide and tirzepatide in early trial comparisons
  • Triple receptor mechanism addresses multiple obesity pathways
  • Significant reduction in liver fat (MASH/NAFLD indication being studied)
  • Improved cardiovascular and metabolic markers
  • Once-weekly dosing
  • Potential for greatest weight loss of any currently investigated compound
Side Effects
  • Generally well tolerated in research studies
  • Mild local reactions at injection site (if injected)
  • No significant systemic side effects reported at standard doses
  • Nausea and vomiting (common during titration, similar to semaglutide/tirzepatide)
  • Diarrhea
  • Constipation
  • Heart rate increase (from glucagon receptor agonism)
