Vilon peptide: Metabolic / Longevity research guide
In short: Vilon (Lys-Glu / KE) is the shortest peptide in the Khavinson bioregulator family: a synthetic dipeptide examined in mouse and rat studies, lymphocyte culture and gene-expression work. It is studied in preclinical (cell and animal) research and is supplied strictly for laboratory use, not for human or clinical use.
Not medical advice. Vilon is a research compound. This guide does not provide dosing, diagnosis, therapy recommendations, or claims about effects in humans.
Vilon at a glance
What to know first
Details and limits sit in the sections below. Research use only. No unsupported scientific claims are added here.
What Vilon is
Vilon (Lys-Glu, "KE") is a two-residue synthetic peptide from the Khavinson bioregulator family, examined in rodent studies, lymphocyte culture, microarray work and human stem-cell culture.
One-paragraph overview from our research datasheet. Still scientific, but faster to read than the full mechanism list below.

Research contexts
Peer-reviewed papers discuss Vilon in specific lab settings. The points below reflect research questions, not health claims.
Research vs. personal use: Literature describes experiments in cells and animals. That is distinct from real-world use. Our products are for laboratory research only.
Typical study contexts
Why Metabolic / Longevity research matters
Researchers study these compounds for mitochondrial function and cellular energy stress. Ageing and metabolic disease models are common.
Mechanisms (technical review)
Our datasheet lists mechanistic themes from preclinical work. These are research endpoints, not health claims.

Common Questions People Are Asking
What is Vilon?
Vilon is the name used for the synthetic dipeptide Lys-Glu (KE) in publications from the Khavinson group. It is a research peptide with a preclinical record, supplied here as a lyophilised powder for laboratory use only.
Why is a two-residue peptide in the same family as the tetrapeptides?
The Khavinson programme grouped ultrashort peptides by their proposed ability to act on gene expression. Lys-Glu is the shortest of them and is the first two residues of both Lys-Glu-Asp (Vesugen) and Lys-Glu-Asp-Gly (Testagen).
What did the cited studies measure?
Mouse tumour occurrence and survival, rat bladder-tumour incidence and digestive-enzyme activity, interleukin-2 expression in lymphocyte culture, a mouse heart microarray, and SIRT1, PARP1 and PARP2 expression in human stem-cell culture. Each is described on this page as reported by its authors, and all of it is preclinical.
Is there a Certificate of Analysis for Vilon?
Not yet. No analytical report has been published for this material, so no purity figure is quoted.
Is there human data on Vilon?
The only human material in the cited literature is cultured mesenchymal stem cells; no study in people is cited. Vilon is sold strictly for in-vitro and preclinical research, not for human or veterinary use.
Is this page medical advice? Can I use Vilon for my health?
No, and no. This article is educational only. We do not provide dosing, medical recommendations, or health claims. Our products are sold strictly for laboratory research, not for personal use of any kind.
Where do I find Vilon specs, purity certificates and pricing?
