Also known as: Vilon
Vilon is a synthetic dipeptide bioregulator from the Khavinson family studied for immune modulation and anti-aging effects. It is associated with restoring physiological function in thymus and other tissues.
Sign in to rate this peptide.
Vilon (Lys-Glu) is a short peptide bioregulator proposed to bind DNA and influence tissue-specific gene expression. It is associated with normalizing immune cell function, supporting thymic activity, and modulating cytokine and proliferation pathways. In aging models it is suggested to restore protein synthesis toward a more youthful pattern and exert geroprotective effects. Its mechanism reflects the broader Cytomax hypothesis that short peptides regulate cellular homeostasis in their target tissue.
