Journal of Hematology Oncology Pharmacy
It is typically marketed online as a research chemical with disclaimers such as not for human consumption. Because of this classification, the quality, purity, and labeling of DSIP products can vary significantly between suppliers, and there are no standardized manufacturing or safety regulations in place
The peptide has been investigated in experimental systems exploring how endogenous protective signaling molecules may influence processes such as angiogenesis, oxidative stress regulation, inflammatory mediator activity, and cellular adaptation following injury
Thus, it can be hypothesized that the ability of DSIP to maintain efficiency of oxidative phosphorylation, even in the setting of hypoxia, could make the peptide a subject of interest for conditions such as stroke and heart attack in future research
