Lab Research Peptides is an independent educational resource focused on summarizing published scientific literature about compounds commonly studied in peptide and molecular biology research. Our goal is to make the existing preclinical and academic research on these compounds more accessible to students, researchers, and anyone curious about the science — presented in neutral, plainly-written language grounded in what has actually been published, rather than promotional claims.

What You’ll Find Here

Each page on this site covers a single compound and follows the same structure:

• What the compound is — its origin, structure, and proposed mechanism of action.
• A summary of the published preclinical and academic research literature, with attribution to research groups and studies where possible.
• The current research questions and applications that remain active areas of scientific investigation.

We do not sell any products, and this site contains no purchasing links, pricing, or commercial offers of any kind. It exists purely to summarize and contextualize published research.

Compounds Covered

• NAD+ — a cellular coenzyme central to energy metabolism and a major focus of aging research.
• Glutathione — the body’s primary intracellular antioxidant, studied extensively in oxidative stress and detoxification research.
• DSIP — one of the earliest-identified “sleep peptides,” with a research history dating to the 1970s.
• GLP-1 — an incretin hormone central to modern metabolic and endocrinology research.

Our Approach

We aim to accurately represent the state of the published literature for each compound, including its limitations. Where research is preclinical (conducted in animal models or cell culture) rather than in confirmed human clinical trials, we say so directly. Where the literature is sparse, inconsistent, or dated, we say that too. We do not make claims about human safety, efficacy, or outcomes that the published research does not support.
