About Vilon

Vilon is the dipeptide L-lysyl-L-glutamic acid (Lys-Glu; PubChem lists the structure as lysylglutamic acid, CID 7010502, C11H21N3O5, ~275.3 g/mol). It is one of the shortest members of the "peptide bioregulator" family developed by V. Kh. Khavinson and colleagues at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology.

In preclinical work, a DNA-microarray study of mouse heart tissue reported that Vilon altered expression of a small number of gene clones, and an in vitro study of lymphocytes from elderly donors reported decondensation of heterochromatin and reactivation of ribosomal-gene regions. Several rodent studies have examined Vilon in tumor and lifespan models. This evidence base consists almost entirely of Russian preclinical (animal and cell-culture) studies; there are no registered Western randomized human trials, and Vilon is not an approved drug.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Vilon?

Vilon is a synthetic dipeptide with the sequence Lys-Glu (KE), one of the Khavinson-class short peptide bioregulators studied in Russian gerontology and immunology research. It is supplied for laboratory research use only.

What is Vilon peptide?

It is a two-amino-acid peptide (lysine and glutamic acid) developed by Khavinson’s group. It has been used as a reagent in preclinical studies of gene expression, chromatin structure, and tumor models in animals and cell cultures.

What is the sequence of Vilon?

Vilon is the dipeptide Lys-Glu (lysine–glutamic acid), abbreviated KE. Its molecular formula is C11H21N3O5 (~275.3 g/mol; PubChem CID 7010502).

What research has been done on Vilon?

Peer-reviewed studies, primarily from Russian groups, have examined Vilon’s effects on gene expression in mouse heart tissue, chromatin in cultured lymphocytes from elderly donors, and tumor incidence and lifespan in rodent models. These are laboratory and preclinical findings only.

Is Vilon approved for human use?

No. Vilon is not an approved drug and has not been evaluated in registered Western randomized human trials. It is sold for laboratory research only and is not for human or veterinary use.
