Ovagen 20mg

Supplier verification pending: The trade name "Ovagen" is a house identifier used in the Khavinson short-peptide family. The primary-literature parent compound (KEDA tetrapeptide, trade name Livagen) is a related but structurally distinct research peptide. Confirm actual sequence with supplier before publication.

Ovagen

A synthetic short peptide (Glu-Asp-Leu, EDL) from the Khavinson short-peptide bioregulator family, positioned in the liver-lineage catalog of tissue-specific short peptides developed at the Saint Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology.

About This Compound

Ovagen (Glu-Asp-Leu, EDL) is a three-residue synthetic peptide belonging to the Khavinson short-peptide family — a research catalog of ultrashort tissue-specific peptides identified through fragment analysis of animal-tissue polypeptide extracts. Within that catalog, Ovagen is grouped with the liver-tissue short peptides alongside the more extensively characterized tetrapeptide Livagen (KEDA). The way small peptides can penetrate cell and nuclear membranes and interact with regulatory DNA elements is the central hypothesis of the Khavinson research program. Sold as lyophilized powder, research-grade purity.

Research Context

Kuznik et al. (2020) reviewed the Khavinson liver-peptide research, characterizing the sister tetrapeptide Livagen (KEDA) alongside a bovine-liver polypeptide complex across in vitro and in vivo hepatology models, including markers of immune status and antioxidant status in rodent models of experimental liver pathology. Khavinson (2002) presented the broader Saint Petersburg Institute peptide framework, including the design principles behind tissue-specific short peptides derived from tetrapeptide analysis of liver, cortex, heart, and pineal-gland preparations. Khavinson et al. (2020, Stem Cell Reviews) reviewed how Khavinson short peptides interact with epigenetic regulators of cell differentiation, providing scaffold-family context for Ovagen research.
