Longevity Research Peptides
Longevity research peptides are studied in models of cellular ageing, mitochondrial function and telomere biology. This category includes epithalon, MOTS-c, SS-31, GHK-Cu formats and NAD in vial and pen form. Most of the literature is mechanistic and preclinical, with cell culture and animal work far outweighing human data. Several items are supplied at higher vial masses, which changes the reconstitution volume, so check the stated size on each product page before you calculate a concentration. Every product ships from EU stock within 24 hours on working days. For research purposes only, not for human consumption.

Questions about this research topic
- What does the Longevity Research Peptides category cover?
- Longevity research groups compounds studied in cellular ageing, mitochondrial function and telomere biology models, including epithalon, MOTS-c, SS-31 and NAD formats. The literature here is largely mechanistic and preclinical.
- Are these products for human use?
- No. All compounds sold by Vitality Peps are strictly for laboratory research purposes and are not intended for human or veterinary consumption.
- Where do you ship to, and what does it cost?
- We ship only to the 27 EU countries and Monaco. Orders dispatch from Spain or the Netherlands within 24 hours on working days and arrive in 1 to 4 working days. Shipping from €10. Tracked and express delivery are available at checkout. Free standard shipping from €200 after discount.
- How should I store the vials?
- Lyophilised vials should be stored at -20°C, away from light. Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, store at 2-8°C and use within the recommended window for that compound.
Guides for this topic
- GHK-Cu vs AHK-Cu: Two Copper Peptides ComparedGHK-Cu is the copper complex of the tripeptide glycyl histidyl lysine, a naturally occurring human plasma peptide with a large preclinical literature in skin and connective tissue models. AHK-Cu is the copper complex of alanyl histidyl lysine, a related but far less studied tripeptide that appears mostly in hair follicle and dermal cell work.
- What is GHK-Cu? A Plain Explanation of the Copper PeptideGHK-Cu is the copper complex of the tripeptide glycyl histidyl lysine, a sequence found naturally in human plasma. It is studied in dermal fibroblast, collagen synthesis and matrix remodelling models, where the bound copper ion is treated as part of the active species. It is supplied at high vial mass, so concentration must be recalculated rather than copied from a 10mg peptide.
- What is MOTS-c? The mitochondrial-encoded peptide in published researchMOTS-c is a 16 amino acid peptide encoded by a short open reading frame in the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene, first described in 2015. In mice it was linked to skeletal muscle, where it inhibited the folate cycle and activated AMPK, and under metabolic stress it moved into the nucleus and influenced gene expression. Mouse studies observed changes in insulin sensitivity, diet-induced weight gain, physical performance in old animals and muscle loss after immobilisation. In humans, MOTS-c has been measured in plasma and rose with exercise, but no controlled human trials of the peptide have been published. Vitality Peps supplies MOTS-c for in vitro laboratory research only.
