Peptide Research Guide

Peptide Research Guide is an educational reference designed to support scientific understanding of peptide biology and ongoing biomedical research. This guide explores the structure, classification, and biological signaling roles of peptides, along with their applications in molecular biology, pharmacology, and biotechnology.

Readers are introduced to both FDA-approved peptide-based pharmaceuticals and investigational research-only peptides, with clear distinctions made between regulated medical use and experimental scientific study. Each peptide discussed is presented through a research-focused lens, outlining known biological mechanisms, areas of active investigation, and the current quality and limitations of available evidence.

Written for academic, educational, and informational purposes only, this guide does not provide medical advice or treatment recommendations. Instead, it serves as a structured resource for students, researchers, and scientifically curious readers seeking a clear overview of peptide science, regulatory context, and emerging directions in peptide research.
