Cardiovascular Safety Peptides

Meaning

Cardiovascular safety peptides are a class of endogenous or synthetic short-chain amino acid compounds designed or observed to exert protective, stabilizing, or therapeutic effects on the heart and vascular system. These peptides typically function as signaling molecules that modulate physiological processes critical for cardiovascular homeostasis, suchs as blood pressure regulation, endothelial function, and myocardial protection. Clinically, this term highlights peptides with a favorable risk profile concerning cardiac function, often showing promise in mitigating the cardiotoxic effects of other therapies or aging. Their role in maintaining a robust and resilient cardiovascular system is a key area of longevity research.
