What is anastrozole?
Anastrozole explained: an aromatase inhibitor that blocks testosterone-to-estrogen conversion, its ~50-hour half-life from the FDA label, and its TRT-adjacent research context. Education only.
Approved medicineCompound overviews3 minWhat is testosterone cypionate?
Testosterone cypionate explained: plain testosterone plus an ester that controls its release, why that stretches the half-life to about 8 days, and how it compares to enanthate.
Approved medicineCompound overviews3 minWhat are research peptides?
A plain-language primer on research peptides: what a peptide actually is, what "research compound" honestly means, the main families, and how to read the wildly different evidence behind each.
Concept / methodCompound overviews6 minWhat is retatrutide?
Retatrutide explained plainly: the investigational "triple G" agonist that hits three hormone receptors — GIP, GLP-1, and glucagon — and what its phase-2 trials showed (~24% weight loss).
Human clinical dataCompound overviews5 minWhat is GHK-Cu (copper peptide)?
GHK-Cu explained with the literature: the copper tripeptide Pickart discovered in 1973, what cell and topical-skin studies show for collagen and wound healing, and why injectable evidence is thin.
PreclinicalCompound overviews5 minWhat is ARA-290 (cibinetide)?
ARA-290 (cibinetide) explained: a non-hematopoietic EPO-derived peptide that targets the innate repair receptor — with the real human trials in small-fibre neuropathy.
Human clinical dataCompound overviews4 minWhat is Adipotide?
Adipotide (FTPP) explained honestly: a peptide that kills the blood supply of white fat, the dramatic obese-monkey results, the kidney catch, and why it never reached people.
PreclinicalCompound overviews4 minWhat is AHK-Cu?
AHK-Cu explained: the copper tripeptide studied for hair — how it stimulates dermal papilla cells, how it differs from GHK-Cu, and the honest evidence limits.
PreclinicalCompound overviews4 minWhat is MGF (mechano growth factor)?
MGF (mechano growth factor) explained honestly: the IGF-1 splice variant your muscles make after training, what the injectable peptide is, and why it has no human trials.
PreclinicalCompound overviews3 minWhat is PEG-MGF?
PEG-MGF explained: the pegylated, longer-lasting version of mechano growth factor (MGF), why pegylation was added, how it differs from MGF, and the honest evidence limits.
PreclinicalCompound overviews5 minWhat are Khavinson peptide bioregulators?
Khavinson peptide bioregulators explained honestly: the Russian "tissue-specific" short peptides (cartalax, testagen, prostamax, epitalon), the theory, and the big evidence gap.
PreclinicalCompound overviews4 minWhat is ACE-031?
ACE-031 explained honestly: a soluble ActRIIB decoy receptor that blocks myostatin, its real human trial results, and the exact side effect that stopped its Duchenne trial.
