Vesugen 20mg (10 Vials / Kit)

Vesugen at a glance

Vesugen is a three-residue peptide, H-Lys-Glu-Asp-OH, abbreviated KED from its one-letter codes. It belongs to the family of short bioregulators developed at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology under Vladimir Khavinson, where each peptide is paired with a tissue; Vesugen's assigned tissue is the vascular wall. With one basic and two acidic residues, it is small, highly polar and water-soluble, and it is supplied as a lyophilized powder.

Price and availability

This is Uther Peptide‘s kit of 10 vials at 20mg each (200 mg in total), dispatched from China. $150.00 buys the whole kit, which is $0.75/mg. 3 brands currently sell Vesugen here, so compare their listings before ordering. As with every order here, the brand is paid only after you confirm delivery.

What it is studied for

The proposed mechanism follows the family model. Rather than binding a surface receptor, KED is thought to enter cells and interact with DNA or histone proteins, changing the accessibility of particular promoter regions. Papers from the originating group report altered expression of markers associated with endothelial function, cell proliferation and cellular senescence in cultured vascular cells, with some work extending to neuronal cultures. These effects are described in terms of gene-expression shifts measured by PCR or immunostaining, and the direct molecular binding partners have not been confirmed by independent groups.

Research and regulatory status

The research record is small and almost entirely preclinical: cell cultures from young and aged donors, some animal work, and review articles by the developing institute. Controlled human trials are absent, and the compound has no regulatory approval. Supplement-style products bearing bioregulator names are sold in Russia, but that commercial status does not amount to drug evaluation. Vesugen should be treated as an exploratory research compound with a narrow evidence base.

Checking the lab data

For a tripeptide, mass spectrometry is the decisive identity test: the observed mass must match Lys-Glu-Asp. Because reordered isomers such as Lys-Asp-Glu share the same mass, an MS/MS fragmentation pattern or comparison with a reference standard adds confidence. HPLC purity should be reported with a batch number and test date. Expect a small white lyophilized cake that may look sparse in the vial.

Storage and preparation

Freeze-dried peptide keeps best sealed, cold and dark. Once it has been dissolved, refrigerate it, avoid repeated warming and follow the stability limits in your study protocol.

Concentration arithmetic: one 20 mg vial dissolved in 2 mL gives 10 mg/mL, or 20 mg/mL in 1 mL. The Research Lab calculator in your dashboard handles any other volume.
