ARA-290 (Cibinetide)
Limited human dataAn 11-amino-acid peptide engineered from a non-erythropoietic region of erythropoietin, designed to activate tissue-repair signaling without stimulating red blood cell production. Studied in phase 2 human trials for small-fiber neuropathy—one of the more clinically tested "tissue protective" peptides.

Epitalon
EmergingA synthetic tetrapeptide associated with pineal peptide research and aging biology conversations. Evidence is largely historical/preclinical with limited modern RCT coverage.

Evidence labels
- EmergingMostly preclinical or early signals; human athletic data is thin.
- Limited human dataSome human pharmacology or small studies; outcomes for fitness use remain limited.
- Stronger clinical signalSupported by larger clinical trials in defined medical populations.
