Energy Peptides
Peptides studied for cellular energy production and metabolic vitality.
5-Amino-1MQ
Low EvidenceA small molecule NNMT inhibitor studied for metabolic enhancement and fat cell reduction.
Apelin
Medium EvidenceAn endogenous cardiovascular peptide that signals through the APJ receptor, studied for heart failure, cardiac repair, and cardioprotection with multiple synthetic analogs in clinical development.
GDF-15 Receptor Agonists
Medium EvidenceA new class of peptide-based weight loss therapeutics that act through the GFRAL/RET receptor in the brainstem, representing a non-GLP-1 mechanism for appetite suppression and energy expenditure regulation.
LIPO-C
Low EvidenceA lipotropic injection blend containing methionine, inositol, choline, and other compounds to support fat metabolism.
MOTS-c
Low EvidenceA mitochondrial-derived peptide studied for metabolic regulation, exercise mimetic effects, and longevity.
NAD+
Medium EvidenceA coenzyme essential for cellular energy production, studied for anti-aging and metabolic support.
SLU-PP-332
Low EvidenceA synthetic ERRα/β/γ pan-agonist studied as an 'exercise mimetic' for endurance, fat oxidation, and metabolic health.
Sotatercept
High EvidenceSotatercept (Winrevair, sotatercept-csrk) is Merck's first-in-class activin signaling inhibitor - a recombinant ActRIIA-Fc fusion protein that acts as a ligand trap for activin A, activin B, GDF-8 (myostatin) and GDF-11. It is FDA-approved for adults with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), where it improved 6-minute walk distance by 40.8 meters in the Phase 3 STELLAR trial and, in the Phase 3 ZENITH trial in high-risk patients, cut the composite risk of death, lung transplantation and PAH hospitalization by 76%. An expanded U.S. label reflecting ZENITH was approved on October 27, 2025.
