Czym jest
Humanin is encoded by the 16S rRNA region of mitochondrial DNA and is secreted as a circulating peptide that interacts with the FPRL1 and CNTFR/WSX-1/gp130 receptor complex. Preclinical data show protection against Alzheimer's-like neurodegeneration and improved insulin sensitivity. For research use only. Not for human use.
