Research Summary

Preclinical

Research by the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology has shown that Vilon can modulate expression of genes involved in immune regulation, cell differentiation, and apoptosis. Studies in aged animals demonstrated restored thymic structure and function. The dipeptide's ability to exert biological effects despite its tiny size challenges conventional pharmacological assumptions and has implications for oral peptide drug development. Published data spans over two decades of Russian bioregulatory research.
