GroupPeptidesWhy they’re associated
GLP-1 / incretin / weight-management peptidesSemaglutide, Tirzepatide, RetatrutideClosely related metabolic drugs. Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist; tirzepatide targets GIP + GLP-1; retatrutide targets GIP + GLP-1 + glucagon. (FDA Access Data)
Fat metabolism / metabolic-energy peptidesAOD-9604, MOTS-c, NAD+AOD-9604 is a human growth-hormone fragment associated with lipolysis research; MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide linked to glucose/metabolic regulation; NAD+ is not a peptide, but is often grouped with metabolic/mitochondrial protocols. (PubMed)
Growth hormone secretagogues / GH–IGF axisCJC-1295 with DAC, Sermorelin, Tesamorelin, Ipamorelin, GHRP-6, HexarelinThese are associated because they stimulate or mimic upstream signals for growth hormone release. Sermorelin/CJC-1295/Tesamorelin are GHRH/GHRF-type; Ipamorelin, GHRP-6 and Hexarelin are GHRP/ghrelin-receptor-type secretagogues. (PMC)
IGF / muscle-repair / anabolic signallingIGF-1 LR3, PEG-MGF, Follistatin-344These are often grouped around muscle growth, repair, hypertrophy or anabolic signalling. IGF-1 LR3 and PEG-MGF relate to the IGF/mechano-growth-factor family; Follistatin-344 is usually associated with myostatin/activin inhibition rather than GH release.
Tissue repair / wound healing / collagen / injury-recovery clusterBPC-157, TB-500 / Thymosin Beta-4, GHK-Cu, KPV, LL-37Commonly grouped around tissue repair, wound healing, angiogenesis, inflammation control, collagen or antimicrobial defence. Thymosin beta-4 has wound-healing literature; reviews also discuss BPC-157, TB-500 and GHK-Cu together in tissue-repair contexts. (PubMed)
Immune / antimicrobial / anti-inflammatory peptidesThymosin Alpha-1, LL-37, KPV, TB-500 / Thymosin Beta-4, BPC-157These are associated with immune modulation, inflammation or host-defence pathways. LL-37 is especially antimicrobial/host-defence; KPV is usually discussed as anti-inflammatory; Thymosin Alpha-1 is usually grouped as immune-modulating.
Neuro / mood / cognition / sleep peptidesSelank, Semax, DSIP, EpitalonThese are often grouped as neuropeptides or CNS-associated peptides. Selank and Semax are commonly paired; DSIP is sleep-associated; Epitalon is usually placed in longevity/circadian/telomere-adjacent discussions rather than classic cognition. Selank has literature showing effects on neurotransmission-related gene expression. (PubMed)
Sexual function / melanocortin pathwayPT-141 / Bremelanotide, Melanotan IIStrongly associated through the melanocortin receptor family. Bremelanotide/PT-141 is a melanocortin receptor agonist; Melanotan II is also melanocortin-related and commonly associated with tanning/sexual-function discussions. (FDA Access Data)
Reproductive hormone axisKisspeptin-10Best grouped separately. Kisspeptin acts upstream of GnRH and stimulates gonadotropin/LH release, so it belongs to the reproductive endocrine axis rather than GH or GLP-1 families. (PMC)
