Pancragen is a bioregulator peptide composed of the amino acids Lys-Glu-Asp-Trp, designed to support pancreatic function and blood sugar regulation. Part of the Khavinson peptide family of short synthetic bioregulators.
Lys-Glu-Asp-Trp

Short (minutes); effects are epigenetic and cumulative
Pancragen is a synthetic tetrapeptide bioregulator (Lys-Glu-Asp-Trp) developed by Professor Vladimir Khavinson at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology. It is specifically designed to normalize pancreatic function at the cellular level, targeting both the exocrine and endocrine functions of the pancreas. As a bioregulator peptide, it works through epigenetic mechanisms to restore healthy gene expression patterns in pancreatic tissue.
Pancragen interacts with DNA sequences in pancreatic cells, including beta cells of the islets of Langerhans, to modulate gene expression related to insulin production, glucose metabolism, and cellular repair. The peptide helps restore optimal pancreatic function by influencing transcription factors involved in beta cell maintenance and regeneration. It may also support the exocrine pancreas by normalizing digestive enzyme production.
Pancragen has been studied primarily in Russian bioregulation research. Animal studies have demonstrated its ability to improve glucose tolerance and normalize insulin levels in models of metabolic dysfunction. Clinical observations suggest improvements in blood sugar control and pancreatic enzyme levels in patients receiving Pancragen as part of bioregulatory protocols. The peptide has shown a favorable safety profile in published studies.
Pancragen is reconstituted with 3ml of bacteriostatic water. Using an insulin syringe marked 1-100 units, draw 10 units for a daily dose. One 20mg vial provides 30 days of dosing. Protocol: 3 months on, 9 months off. Administered subcutaneously.
