Inflammatory & Immune Modulators
Peptides in this domain influence signaling pathways that regulate immune activity and inflammatory response. Rather than acting as direct treatments for disease, these compounds are studied for their potential to modulate cytokine signaling, immune cell communication, and inflammatory cascade dynamics. Discussions in this category often explore systemic inflammation, gut-immune interactions, immune resilience, and the balance between necessary inflammatory signaling and chronic dysregulation.

LL-37
Controlled human trialsLL-37 is the only cathelicidin the human body makes. It has real randomised human trials, all of them topical on chronic ulcers, and the largest one did not beat placebo.

Thymulin
Early human dataThymulin is a thymic hormone that only works with a zinc ion attached. The human evidence is about zinc status, and every human trial people cite for it belongs to a different thymic preparation.
