Description

  • About Cardiogen

    Cardiogen — a synthetic Ala-Glu-Asp-Arg tetrapeptide (CAS 135537-11-0) from the Khavinson peptide bioregulator series — is a tissue-specific peptide studied as a model cardiac cytoprotective signal in cardiovascular and myocardial research. It is supplied as a laboratory-grade lyophilized powder intended strictly for analytical and non-clinical research applications.

    As a member of the short peptide bioregulator family, Cardiogen is investigated for its selectivity toward cardiomyocyte and cardiac tissue signalling models. Researchers use Cardiogen in H9c2 cardiomyoblast, neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocyte (NRVM), and HL-1 cardiac cell models to examine effects on cell survival pathway activation (Bcl-2/Bax ratio, caspase-3 activity), mitochondrial membrane potential maintenance under stress conditions, and cardiomyocyte-specific gene expression markers under standardised in vitro conditions.

    COMMON RESEARCH APPLICATIONS

    Cardiomyocyte Cell Survival & Apoptosis Research
    Cardiogen is examined in H9c2 and NRVM models under hypoxia/reoxygenation or doxorubicin challenge to study Bcl-2/Bax ratio modulation, caspase-3/7 activity, and mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) as cytoprotective endpoint markers.

    Cardiac Inflammation Pathway Screening
    Used in cytokine-challenged cardiomyocyte models (IL-1β, TNF-α) to study NF-κB pathway activation, ICAM-1 expression, and anti-inflammatory signalling relative to vehicle and reference cytoprotective compound controls.

    Mitochondrial Function & Energy Metabolism
    Examined in Seahorse XF mitochondrial stress tests using cardiac cell lines to assess oxygen consumption rate (OCR), ATP production rate, and mitochondrial reserve capacity under Cardiogen treatment conditions.

    Comparative Khavinson Cardiac Bioregulator Studies
    Benchmarked alongside related Khavinson tetrapeptides (Bronchogen, Testagen, Thymalin) to characterise tissue selectivity profiles and shared vs. distinct signalling features within the short peptide bioregulator class.
