Vesugen, aka KED, is a bioregulator peptide and identified within the group of peptides isolated and synthesized by Russian scientist, Vladimir Khavinson. It is a tripeptide derived from a sequence of amino acids related to vascular wall proteins, encapsulating the amino acids lysine, glutamic acid, and aspartic acid. Vesugen is primarily known for its potential influence on vascular endothelial cells. Further, its potential extends to a wide array of biological processes, making it a viable research compound within the context of anti-aging and neuroprotection research. Primarily, Vesugen is recognized for its potential vasoprotective impacts, with a particular emphasis on its role in the maintenance and repair of vascular endothelial cells. These cells form the lining of blood vessels. In addition to its vascular implications, Vesugen has also been explored for its neuroprotective and geroprotective consequences. Studies have examined its effects on neuron survival and morphology, suggesting its possible role in combating neurodegenerative diseases and enhancing neuroplasticity.
