Peptide Intelligence · public knowledge desk

Signal over sales noise.

What a compound is. What it has actually been studied for. What is licensed, investigational or still preclinical — with the uncomfortable unknowns left in.

Education only. No diagnosis, dosing, reconstitution, injection or purchasing guidance.
01Licensed use

A regulator has authorised a specific product for a specific indication.

02Human trials

People have been studied, but approval and general use do not follow automatically.

03Early evidence

Small or route-specific evidence that needs careful interpretation.

04Preclinical

Laboratory and animal signals — useful for hypotheses, not treatment promises.

Current signal wire

Today in the evidence.

Registry titles are pulled from the official ClinicalTrials.gov feed. We show the source record rather than turning every update into a claim.

Compound library

Know the status before the story.

Every profile separates regulated uses from research interest, gaps, safety signals and sport status.

01US-authorised medicine · narrow indication
Growth hormone-releasing factor analogue

Tesamorelin

A synthetic analogue of growth hormone-releasing factor that increases endogenous growth hormone signalling and IGF-1.

Regulatory approval for one defined use
02Investigational · human trials
Ghrelin-receptor agonist / growth hormone secretagogue

Ipamorelin

A growth hormone secretagogue studied as a ghrelin-receptor agonist, including trials in post-operative gastrointestinal recovery.

Phase 2 research, no routine therapeutic approval
03Unapproved · mainly preclinical
Experimental 15-amino-acid peptide

BPC-157

An experimental peptide widely promoted online for tissue and gastrointestinal recovery, despite the gap between preclinical research and proven human treatment.

Animal and laboratory evidence dominates
04Unapproved · preclinical
Experimental peptide fragment

TB-500

Thymosin beta-4 fragment (LKKTETQ)

A short synthetic fragment associated with thymosin beta-4 marketing. Evidence for full thymosin beta-4 should not be treated as evidence for TB-500.

No established human exposure data for the fragment
05Early evidence · route matters
Copper-binding tripeptide

GHK-Cu

Copper tripeptide-1

A naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide studied in skin biology, extracellular-matrix signalling and cosmetic formulations.

Laboratory, animal and limited cosmetic research
06Phase 3 · investigational
GIP / GLP-1 / glucagon receptor agonist

Retatrutide

LY3437943

An investigational triple receptor agonist being studied in phase 3 programmes for obesity and related metabolic conditions.

Substantial human trials, no marketing authorisation
07US-authorised medicine · narrow indication
Melanocortin-receptor agonist

PT-141 / Bremelanotide

Bremelanotide is a synthetic cyclic peptide and melanocortin-receptor agonist. 'PT-141' material sold online should not be assumed equivalent to a regulated medicine.

Regulatory approval for one defined use
08Unapproved · limited human evidence
Synthetic regulatory heptapeptide

Selank

A synthetic peptide related to tuftsin, promoted online for anxiety, stress and cognitive effects despite a limited and hard-to-generalise evidence base.

Small and region-specific studies
09Unapproved · preclinical
Alpha-MSH-derived tripeptide fragment

KPV

Lys-Pro-Val

A three-amino-acid fragment associated with alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone research and promoted for inflammatory and wound-healing uses.

Laboratory and animal research
10Licensed medicine exists · products are not equivalent
Alpha-MSH analogue

Melanotan I / Afamelanotide

Afamelanotide is a synthetic alpha-MSH analogue. The regulated Scenesse implant must not be confused with unlicensed 'Melanotan I' tanning products.

Regulatory approval for a rare-disease indication
11Unapproved · significant safety uncertainty
Synthetic melanocortin analogue

Melanotan II

An unapproved melanocortin analogue promoted online for tanning and sexual effects, often through products with uncertain identity and purity.

No authorised therapeutic or tanning use

Keep the categories straight

NAD+ is not a peptide. TRT is not research supply.

NAD+

A coenzyme and metabolic molecule. It belongs in a separate longevity evidence track, not inside the peptide library.

TRT

Prescription-only hormone therapy requiring symptoms, appropriately timed blood tests, clinical review and ongoing monitoring.
