Foundational Scientific Overview
Humanin (10mg) is a paramount subject within the field of mitochondrial bioenergetics and neuroprotection. As a 24-amino acid mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP), it has become a staple for researchers examining the profound inhibition of apoptotic cascades, cellular survival under oxidative stress, and the mitigation of amyloid-beta toxicity in neurodegenerative models.
At 4 Amino Labs, we provide this delicate sequence in a highly purified format to ensure experimental reproducibility in sensitive neurological assays.
Scientific Literature Reference: The biochemical discovery of Humanin as a neuroprotective factor capable of abolishing neuronal cell death induced by multiple Alzheimer’s disease genes is a landmark in neurobiology. See: Hashimoto, Y., et al. (2001). “A rescue factor abolishing neuronal cell death by a wide spectrum of familial Alzheimer’s disease genes and Abeta.” Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 98(11), 6336-6341.
Analytical Composition & Purity Standards
- Chemical Formula: C119H204N34O32S2
- Physical State: White Lyophilized Solid
Our Humanin undergoes a multifaceted verification process via independent High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Mass Spectrometry (MS) to ensure a purity threshold of ≧ 99%.
Investigational Pathways
Researchers utilizing Humanin typically focus on the following biochemical mechanisms:
- BAX Inhibition: Evaluating the compound’s binding to the pro-apoptotic BAX protein, preventing its translocation to the mitochondria, and halting cell death.
- Amyloid-Beta Resistance: Observing the maintenance of cellular viability in hippocampal neuron cultures exposed to neurotoxic amyloid-beta plaques.
- Metabolic Cytoprotection: Mapping the preservation of ATP synthesis and mitochondrial membrane potential under severe oxidative or ischemic stress.
Laboratory Handling & Stability Protocol
To maintain the molecular integrity of Humanin, the following storage parameters are recommended:
- Thermal Regulation: Store in a strictly controlled, refrigerated, and desiccated environment. Unmixed powder is best preserved at -20°C.
- Photostability: Protect from direct UV exposure; storage in an opaque container is strictly advised.
- Contamination Control: Utilize sterilized instruments and work within a laminar flow hood where possible.
