    Buy the 10-pack - save 50%/mg. Single vials welcome — checkout needs 5+ vials or any 10-vial pack - build a custom vial pack

    Lab-direct quality — full packs or single-vial samples

    Every batch ships straight from the lab that synthesises it — sealed, tamper-evident. Buying direct means you pay the lab-direct rate on every vial, with nothing stacked on top.

    Order a sealed 10-vial research pack , or add a single-vial laboratory sample alongside your pack to evaluate a compound at smaller scale first. Same source — scaled to whatever your research needs.

    Scientific Research Context

    What the published literature on Ovagen examines. These are findings about the compound in the studies cited, not claims about the supplied material.

    Rat kidney-injury models

    In gentamicin-induced and ischemia-reperfusion kidney injury in rats, EDL was reported to prevent oliguria and retention azotemia, reduce proteinuria and sodium excretion, preserve antioxidant-enzyme activity, suppress lipid peroxidation and normalise renal energy supply. [animal, rat]

    Cisplatin model and aged kidney

    In rats with cisplatin-induced acute kidney failure, EDL with Epitalon and a kidney complex normalised diuresis, urinary creatinine, glomerular filtration rate and sodium handling. In old rats, diuresis rose about 1.2-1.4 fold and renal antioxidant-enzyme activity rose, with no nephrotoxicity in the tissue. [animal, rat]

    Kidney cell cultures

    In aging renal cell culture, AED and EDL were reported to raise proliferation, lower p16, p21 and p53 and raise SIRT-6; MMP-14 was reported as the target of T-35 in primary kidney cell cultures. [in vitro]

    Kidney explants

    In organotypic kidney explants from young and old rats, T-35 was reported to stimulate proliferation and reduce apoptosis, less than the polypeptide complex did. [ex vivo, rat tissue]

    Overview

    In short: Ovagen (Glu-Asp-Leu, "EDL") is a three-residue synthetic peptide from the Khavinson bioregulator family; the peer-reviewed experiments on it are all in kidney tissue and kidney cell cultures.

    Key research facts

  • Synthetic Glu-Asp-Leu (EDL) tripeptide from the Khavinson short-peptide lineage, lab code T-35
  • Studied in rat kidney-injury models for diuresis, creatinine and antioxidant-enzyme markers
  • Examined in kidney cell cultures for MMP-14, p16, p21, p53 and SIRT-6
  • Tested side by side with Cartalax (Ala-Glu-Asp) in kidney cultures and aged-rat kidney
  • Shares its Glu-Asp pair with Pinealon, Epitalon and Chonluten
  • These points summarise lab themes, not human outcomes.

    EDL is Bronchogen (Ala-Glu-Asp-Leu) without its first residue. The Khavinson reviews list it as "Ovagen (EDL)", with a kidney role and a liver role. The papers themselves call it "EDL peptide" or "T-35" and never use the word Ovagen, and the patent behind it, which concerns liver regeneration, does not either. The name collides with an unrelated veterinary hormone product, so it should be searched by sequence.

    The kidney work is the substance of the peer-reviewed record on EDL. In rat models of drug-induced and ischemia-related kidney injury, EDL was reported to normalise diuresis and creatinine markers and to preserve antioxidant-enzyme activity. In aged rats it was reported to raise diuresis and sodium excretion with no sign of nephrotoxicity in the tissue. In kidney cell cultures it was reported to raise proliferation, lower p16, p21 and p53 and raise SIRT-6, and to act on MMP-14 as a target.

    It is supplied here as a lyophilised research powder for in-vitro and preclinical use. No analytical report for the supplied material has been published yet, so this page quotes no purity figure.

  • Research class: Synthetic short-peptide bioregulator (Khavinson family)
  • Sequence: Glu-Asp-Leu (EDL)
  • Research focus: Kidney tissue, kidney explants and kidney cell cultures
  • Evidence base: Rat and cell-culture studies, every one co-authored by the originating group; no human data
  • Proposed Mechanism

    Ovagen is studied as a kidney-matched short peptide. The cell-culture data point to senescence markers (p16, p21, p53, SIRT-6) and an MMP-14 target; the animal data are functional kidney readouts.

    Pathway Effect Why it matters Kidney function markers Diuresis, creatinine, GFR and sodium handling normalised in rat injury models Functional readouts in animals; one research group Antioxidant balance Antioxidant-enzyme activity preserved and lipid peroxidation suppressed in injured kidney A biochemical explanation the authors offer for the functional effects Senescence markers p16, p21 and p53 lowered and SIRT-6 raised in aging renal cell cultures Used as an ageing-model readout; DNA-docking models accompany it MMP-14 target MMP-14 identified as the target of T-35 in primary kidney cell cultures Species not stated in the abstract Deeper dive for scientific readers

    The Khavinson hypothesis is that ultrashort peptides regulate tissue-specific gene expression, with a DNA-binding step. For EDL the supporting data are animal kidney function, culture-level senescence markers and docking that places EDL and Bronchogen at the same DNA site (ctcc). The liver link in the group's review tables is sourced to the patent, not to a journal paper, and there is no peer-reviewed liver study of EDL; the gut link in retail copy has no support in the literature found. All papers share the originating group's authors and no independent replication was found.

    Common Questions People Are Asking

    What is Ovagen?

    Ovagen is the trade-style name used in the Khavinson group's reviews for the synthetic tripeptide Glu-Asp-Leu (EDL), lab code T-35. It is supplied here as a laboratory research powder only.

    Is Ovagen an ovarian peptide?

    No evidence in the cited literature says so. The name is a label, and every peer-reviewed experiment on EDL is in kidney tissue or kidney cells.

    Is it a liver peptide?

    The liver pairing comes from a patent on liver regeneration and from the group's review tables, not from a journal paper; no peer-reviewed liver study of EDL was found. No gut link appears in the literature found.

    Is there a Certificate of Analysis for Ovagen?

    Not yet. No independent analytical report has been published for this material, so no purity figure is quoted.

    Is there human data on Ovagen?

    No human study was found. Ovagen is sold strictly for in-vitro and preclinical research, not for human or veterinary use.

    Pharmacokinetics

    Stability Lyophilised powder: store in freezer (−20 °C). Reconstituted: refrigerate 1–6 °C, away from sunlight. Notes Laboratory research material. No human dosing exists for this compound and none is published or recommended here.

    Evidence Tier

    Overall: Tier 3: Limited / anecdotal

    Ovagen has a substantial animal record for a short peptide, but all of it is in kidney and all of it comes from one network. The liver pairing rests on a patent, the gut pairing on retail copy, and the name itself appears in no primary paper. There are no human data and no independent replication. It is supplied as unapproved laboratory material.

    About Ovagen (EDL): Short-Peptide Bioregulator Research Guide

    Ovagen is a name for a peptide, not a description of an organ. The patent behind EDL (WO 2007/139430, with a Russian counterpart) has a Russian priority date of May 2006, concerns liver regeneration, and describes tests in rat liver explants, partial hepatectomy and a toxic-injury model. The kidney papers that make up the peer-reviewed record start in 2014.

    Listed CAS numbers differ between sources, so none is published here. The formula C15H25N3O8 and average mass of 375.38 Da are computed from Glu-Asp-Leu and match the compound records in PubChem and ChEBI.

    New-U Research Compounds supplies Ovagen as a lyophilised research powder in sealed 10-vial packs of 20 mg vials. No analytical report for the supplied material has been published yet, and this page makes no purity or certificate claim. It is for in-vitro and preclinical research only and nothing here is medical advice.
