Dihexa Research Peptide — 5mg Lyophilized
Dihexa (N-hexanoic-Tyr-Ile-(6) aminohexanoic amide) is a small, blood-brain-barrier-permeable peptide derived from angiotensin IV. With a molecular weight of 474.66 Da, Dihexa was developed at Washington State University and has been extensively studied in animal models for its effects on HGF/Met signaling, synaptogenesis, and cognitive function in neurodegenerative disease models.
Published research has demonstrated Dihexa’s ability to form superpotent HGF-like dimers in cell culture and hippocampal slice preparations. It is used as a research tool in neuroplasticity, memory research, and Alzheimer’s disease model studies.
