FAQ
- What is a Khavinson bioregulator?
- A family of very short synthetic peptides, typically two to four amino acids, developed in Russia from tissue extracts. Each is associated with a particular organ system; Vilon comes from thymic research.
- How strong is the evidence for Vilon?
- Most of it comes from a single research programme and is published in Russian-language journals, with limited independent replication. That is worth knowing when comparing it to compounds with broader international literatures.
- How does Vilon relate to Thymalin?
- Both come from thymic research within the same bioregulator programme. Thymalin is a peptide extract preparation; Vilon is a defined synthetic dipeptide.
