What is Cortagen?
Cortagen is a neuro-regulatory peptide complex derived from sequences naturally occurring in cerebral cortex tissue.
It belongs to the family of cytogenetic bioregulators, which are short amino-acid chains that communicate with specific cells and regulate gene expression at the cellular level.
In research, Cortagen is studied for its potential to:
-
🧠 Support neurogenesis and neuronal communication
-
⚡ Improve synaptic signaling and memory pathways
-
🧬 Enhance protein synthesis in neural tissue
-
💡 Reduce oxidative and metabolic stress in brain cells
Key Features
-
