Bronchogen- Summary
- DSIP is an endogenous neuropeptide originally isolated from rabbit cerebrospinal fluid that induces delta-wave (deep) sleep. It also modulates stress response, cortisol regulation, and LH secretion, making it valuable for sleep optimization and stress management.
- 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.
- Half-Life
- ~30–60 minutes; however downstream sleep effects last 4–6 hours
- Short (minutes to hours); bioregulator effects are gene-mediated and longer lasting
- Admin Route
- SubQ, IV, Intranasal
