Decision summary

Key benefits

Defensible research value includes TREK-1 channel assays, selectivity panels, rapid-onset behavioural models, neurogenesis-marker studies and parent-versus-fragment comparisons
Rodent forced-swim, feeding or BrdU results do not establish human antidepressant, anxiolytic, cognitive or neuroprotective efficacy.

Qualification matrix

Identity, purity and content are separate release questions.

Identity

Confirm the stated molecule and supplied form. Start with the matching batch COA; request sequence-level evidence only when the buyer's written procedure requires it and availability or a separate scope has been agreed.

Purity

Review RP-HPLC method conditions, wavelength, integration and related-peak handling. A percentage without the method is not enough.

Content

Net peptide content is not the same as gross lyophilized powder weight. Ask which assay supports the stated amount and whether water/counter-ion is addressed.

Stability

Follow the storage condition stated on the batch COA or label from receipt onward.

Research context

What researchers study about PE-22-28

PE-22-28, also called mini-spadin, is the seven-residue GVSWGLR fragment derived from the sortilin-propeptide/spadin research system. Cell and rodent studies report potent TREK-1 inhibition and antidepressant-like or neurogenesis-associated readouts, but no qualifying human trial exists. Parent-spadin and TREK-1-class findings must be distinguished from measurements made directly with PE-22-28.

Appropriate laboratory contexts include TREK-1 potency and selectivity, parent-fragment comparison, rodent behavioural replication, neurogenesis-marker methods and analytical identity qualification
No approved clinical indication applies.

Mechanism context

The question the literature is testing

PE-22-28 inhibits TREK-1 in preclinical assays. Downstream serotonergic, CREB and BDNF explanations are partly extrapolated from parent spadin and class literature and must be labelled accordingly. Selectivity results at specific concentrations cannot establish human cardiac or neurological safety.

Routes reported in sources

Dose / exposure contextProtocol-specific; verify the cited primary source

Routes and exposure contexts summarize cited studies or approved finished-product labels. They are not instructions for administering this RUO material; no customer dose is provided.

Evidence boundaries

Compatibility, limitations and decision context

Not for human or veterinary administration
Absence of hERG inhibition in one preclinical assay does not establish clinical safety, and no human safety data exist
Identity, content, impurities, contamination and unsupported route claims remain material risks.

Interactions reported in the literature

No human combination guidance applies
SSRI, MAOI, Semax, Selank, Dihexa, Cerebrolysin and BPC-157 recommendations were removed because no controlled interaction study supports them.

Literature context is not a supplier release result or human-use instruction. Follow your institution's approved laboratory risk assessment.

Buyer FAQ

Terms to settle before the purchase order

Can a buyer arrange third-party testing?+

Yes. You can send any vial from your order to an independent laboratory of your choice. If you want the laboratory, specification, sampling, method and acceptance rule agreed with us before testing, sales confirms them in writing. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the buyer pays the cost of this optional testing.

What if my own lab test shows the product is out of specification?+

Send any vial from your order to an independent laboratory of your choice. If the report shows the product does not meet the specification on its COA — purity below the stated minimum, or an identity that does not match — share the report with our sales team and we refund that product in full.

Does HPLC purity prove peptide content?+

No. Chromatographic purity describes the relative peak profile under a stated method. Identity, water, counter-ion, residual solvents and assay/content may require separate methods.

How should material be stored after delivery?+

Move it into the storage condition stated on the batch COA or label as soon as it arrives, and record the package condition on receipt.

How are payment terms handled?+

Available methods and milestones depend on order value, destination and project type. The pro forma invoice should state currency, bank details, fees, payment milestones and the release condition.

Why must the testing laboratory understand peptide chemistry?+

Free-base and salt forms, hydrophilic and hydrophobic sequences, aggregation and adsorption can change sample preparation and method suitability. Use a laboratory experienced with the molecule class.

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2017 (PMC5601071 / PubMed 28955242) — the primary study reports an IC50 of 0.12 nM for PE-22-28 versus 40 nM for spadin, no effect on TREK-2, TRAAK, TASK-1, TRESK or hERG in the reported assays, rodent behavioural readouts and BrdU-positive-cell counts of 1,736±126 versus 899±109 in controls. The 14-23-hour half-effect durations were reported for modified G/A and biotinylated G/A analogues, not as a pharmacokinetic half-life for unmodified PE-22-28 or humans.

PLOS Biology, 2010 (PMC2854129) — the original parent-spadin study linking TREK-1 blockade with dorsal-raphe serotonergic transmission, CREB phosphorylation and neurogenesis; these pathway findings are mechanistic context, not direct human evidence for PE-22-28.

Product FAQ

Questions buyers ask about PE-22-28

What identity should a PE-22-28 quotation and COA define?+

Require the sequence Gly-Val-Ser-Trp-Gly-Leu-Arg (GVSWGLR), terminal states, CAS 1801959-12-5 and PubChem CID 165437303 where used, molecular formula C₃₅H₅₅N₁₁O₉, theoretical mass 773.89 Da and the supplied salt or counterion basis. 'Mini-Spadin' is an alias, not an adequate analytical identity. Confirm the released lot by intact mass and a sequence-capable orthogonal method.

How strong is the evidence for PE-22-28?+

The key potency, selectivity, duration and behavioural findings come from cell and rodent studies, including the 2017 shortened-spadin paper. No human clinical trial or approved use was identified. Parent-spadin or TREK-1 class findings should be labelled as mechanistic extrapolation when they were not measured directly for PE-22-28.

What quality tests matter beyond HPLC purity?+

Use intact mass and preferably sequence confirmation, a quantitative peptide-content or assay result, water and counterion testing, and residual-solvent controls appropriate to synthesis. For a functional study, confirm concentration and activity in the chosen model. HPLC area percentage alone does not establish content, identity, solubility or biological activity.
