Reference

Peptide Science Glossary

Key terms defined clearly — so you can engage with the science on your own terms.

Peptide

A short chain of amino acids (typically 2–50) that acts as a biological signalling molecule, directing cellular processes throughout the body.

Autophagy

The cellular "self-cleaning" process by which the body breaks down and recycles damaged or dysfunctional components — a key mechanism in longevity and disease prevention.

Growth Hormone Secretagogue

A class of peptides that stimulate the pituitary gland to produce and release growth hormone, supporting recovery, body composition, and metabolic health.

BPC-157

Body Protection Compound 157 — a synthetic peptide derived from a protein found in gastric juice, studied extensively for its tissue repair and anti-inflammatory properties.

Collagen Synthesis

The biological process by which the body produces collagen — the structural protein responsible for skin elasticity, joint integrity, and connective tissue strength.

Senescence

The state in which cells stop dividing but remain metabolically active, secreting inflammatory signals. Accumulation of senescent cells is a key driver of biological aging.
