PE-22-28 vs Bronchogen

Side-by-side comparison of key properties, dosing, and research.

Cognitive Enhancement
PE-22-28
Anti-Aging & Longevity
Bronchogen
Summary
PE-22-28 is a synthetic analog of spadin derived from sortilin, designed to block TREK-1 potassium channels with rapid-onset antidepressant and neurogenic effects. It shows fast-acting depression relief (within 24 hours) and promotes hippocampal neurogenesis.
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
Relatively short; CNS effects may persist due to neurogenic mechanisms
Short (minutes to hours); bioregulator effects are gene-mediated and longer lasting

Key Benefits
  • Rapid-onset antidepressant effects (within 24 hours)
  • Promotes hippocampal neurogenesis
  • Improves cognitive performance and memory
  • Reduces anxiety and depressive behavior
  • Novel mechanism — does not act on serotonin/dopamine/GABA receptors directly
  • May help treatment-resistant depression
  • Neuroprotective effects
  • 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
Side Effects
  • Generally well tolerated in animal models
  • Limited human data available
  • Possible mild headache or transient mood changes at initiation
  • Injection site reactions (SC)
  • Generally well tolerated in research studies
  • Mild local reactions at injection site (if injected)
  • No significant systemic side effects reported at standard doses
