Humanin Peptide Research

Humanin is a 21-amino-acid peptide encoded within the 16S ribosomal RNA gene of the mitochondrial genome, making it one of a class of mitochondria-derived peptides (MDPs) with systemic signaling roles. Research has documented its cytoprotective, anti-apoptotic, and neuroprotective properties, with studies exploring its potential in Alzheimer’s disease, where it appears to protect neurons from amyloid-beta toxicity, as well as in cardiovascular protection, metabolic regulation, and cellular aging. Humanin levels decline with age, and research suggests this may contribute to age-related disease vulnerability. This section covers scientific studies on Humanin and its mitochondrial, neuroprotective, and anti-aging research applications.
