Elabela vs Vasostatin

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

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...

Vasostatin
Cardiovascular Peptide

Vasostatin refers to the N-terminal fragments of chromogranin A (CgA), particularly CgA1-76 (Vasostatin-1) and CgA1-113 (Vasostatin-2), generated by proteolytic processing of the chromogranin A precursor. While catestatin (CgA352-372) is the C-terminal CgA fragment with anti-cate...
