Product details
Cardiogen is a synthetic tetrapeptide bioregulator investigated for its interactions with cardiac tissue cellular regulation and proliferative signaling in preclinical models.
Molecular Composition and Mechanistic Profile
Peptide identity: Cardiogen is a four amino acid peptide with the sequence Ala Glu Asp Arg (AEDR).
Origin: Synthetic short regulatory peptide developed from sequences associated with cardiac tissue polypeptides in the bioregulator class.
Mechanistically, Cardiogen has been associated with:
Stimulation of cell proliferation markers in cardiac tissue preparations from experimental systems.
Modulation of fibroblast activity and extracellular matrix related processes in laboratory models.
Influence on protein synthesis and cellular regulatory pathways relevant to cardiomyocyte and connective tissue dynamics.
These properties position Cardiogen as a tool for studying tissue specific bioregulatory signaling in cardiac models.
Integrated Research Applications
Cardiogen is examined in systems focused on cardiac and fibroblast regulation. Representative domains include:
Cardiomyocyte and cardiac tissue models: Investigation of proliferative responses and metabolic markers in cultured cells and animal tissue preparations.
Fibroblast and matrix studies: Evaluation of effects on collagen elastin related synthesis and tissue remodeling signals in experimental systems.
Aging related cardiac models: Assessment of cellular activity differences between young and aged tissue preparations.
Comparative bioregulator research: Use alongside related short peptides to explore organ specific regulatory mechanisms in controlled laboratory settings.
Overall, Cardiogen serves as a research tool for exploring short peptide modulation of cardiac tissue homeostasis and cellular renewal networks.

Common research questions
What is Cardiogen?
Cardiogen is a synthetic peptide made of four amino acids, with the most consistently cited sequence being alanine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, and arginine (Ala-Glu-Asp-Arg, or AEDR). It's part of the Khavinson family of Russian research peptides, and it's specifically assigned to heart tissue.
What does Cardiogen do?
Cardiogen is proposed to work the same way other peptides in this family do, by getting into cells and directly interacting with genetic material rather than acting through a receptor. It's been shown to bind to several histone proteins at specific binding sites, which is thought to open up access to cardiac-specific genes and make them easier for the cell to actually use.
What is a similar peptide to Cardiogen?
The closest comparison is Chelohart, since Chelohart is a broader natural extract taken from animal heart tissue, while Cardiogen is the single, defined synthetic peptide meant to represent one specific active piece of that same tissue, mirroring the extract-versus-purified-fragment relationship seen elsewhere in this peptide family. Vesugen is another frequently paired peptide, since Cardiogen targets the heart muscle itself while Vesugen targets the blood vessels, and the two are often used together for broader cardiovascular coverage.
