Angiotensin 1-9 vs Elabela

Angiotensin 1-9 vs Elabela — mechanism, half-life, dosing, and research status compared. Which is right for your protocol?

Angiotensin 1-9
Cardiovascular Peptide

Angiotensin 1-9 (Ang 1-9) is a 9-amino acid peptide formed when ACE2 cleaves the C-terminal leucine from angiotensin I (Ang I, 10 AA). Discovered as part of the counter-regulatory renin-angiotensin system (RAS), Ang 1-9 opposes the hypertensive and tissue-damaging actions of angi...

Elabela
Cardiovascular Peptide

Elabela (also called Apela or Toddler) is the second endogenous peptide ligand for the APJ receptor, discovered in 2013 independently through two approaches: as an essential zebrafish cardiac development factor (Toddler) and as a novel human APJ ligand (Elabela). Unlike apelin pe...
