Vesugen 20mg
A synthetic vascular bioregulator tripeptide (Lys-Glu-Asp) investigated for endothelial health, gene expression, and vascular aging.
Mechanism
Vesugen is hypothesized to act epigenetically within vascular endothelial cells, altering the expression of regulatory genes including Ki-67, endothelin-1, connexin, and SIRT1.
Dosing
Initial research protocols document an introductory dose of 500 mcg administered once daily.
Reconstitution
Adding 3.0 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 20 mg vial produces a reconstituted solution with an approximate concentration of 6.67 mg/mL.
Storage
Keep lyophilized vials frozen at -20 °C, and once reconstituted, maintain the liquid solution between 2 and 8 °C protected from light without refreezing.

Dosing Chart
| Phase / Day(s) | Dose & Frequency | Volume (U-100 units / mL) |
|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | 500 mcg (1× daily) | ~7.5 units (~0.075 mL) |
| Week 2 | 1,000 mcg (1× daily) | 15 units (0.15 mL) |
| Week 3 | 1,500 mcg (1× daily) | ~22.5 units (~0.225 mL) |
| Weeks 4–8+ | 1,500–2,000 mcg (1× daily) | ~22.5–30 units (~0.225–0.30 mL) |
Reconstitution Steps
- 1
Clean the rubber stopper of the 20 mg Vesugen vial with an alcohol wipe and allow it to dry.
- 2
Draw 3.0 mL of bacteriostatic water into a sterile mixing syringe.
- 3
Introduce the bacteriostatic water into the vial slowly, aiming the stream along the inner glass wall to avoid turbulence.
- 4
Gently rotate or roll the vial until the lyophilized powder is completely dissolved; avoid shaking.
- 5
Affix a label noting the reconstitution date and resulting 6.67 mg/mL concentration, then refrigerate immediately at 2–8 °C.
Supplies Needed

Overview
Vesugen is a short synthetic tripeptide consisting of lysine, glutamic acid, and aspartic acid (KED). Identified initially within the framework of Khavinson peptide bioregulation studies, it was modeled after the active biological components found in crude vascular tissue extracts such as Ventfort. As a targeted cytogen, it is investigated primarily for its structural influence on vascular endothelial integrity. Preclinical research focuses on how this short amino acid chain interacts with vascular cellular structures, particularly evaluating its role in gene expression markers relevant to endothelial health, cellular replication, and arterial function. It is predominantly handled as an experimental model for vascular aging, tone, and cellular longevity. All documented handling metrics reflect early laboratory paradigms rather than validated human clinical interventions. Vesugen remains an unapproved research compound intended strictly for controlled laboratory experiments and scientific evaluation.
