DSIP

Cognitive & Sleep · 5 mg fill · Research Peptide

An endogenous nonapeptide first isolated in 1974; its receptor is still unidentified.

Overview

DSIP (delta sleep-inducing peptide) is a nonapeptide with the sequence Trp-Ala-Gly-Gly-Asp-Ala-Ser-Gly-Glu, first isolated in 1974 from the cerebral venous blood of rabbits. It is unusual among studied neuropeptides in that no receptor, gene or precursor protein has been identified for it, so its mechanism remains open. That open question is precisely what makes it a research compound. Supplied lyophilized for laboratory research.
