    Scientific Research Context

    What the published literature on Bronchogen examines. These are findings about the compound in the studies cited, not claims about the supplied material.

    Proliferation and apoptosis markers

    In cultured human embryonic bronchial epithelial cells, Bronchogen was reported to raise Ki67 and Mcl-1 and lower p53. At passage 14 the Ki67-positive area rose from 4.07% in control to 13.92% with the peptide, while the control tetrapeptide Lys-Glu-Asp-Trp did not change Ki67. [in vitro, human cells]

    Lung-lineage gene expression

    Expression of NKX2-1, SCGB1A1, SCGB3A2, FOXA1/2, MUC4, MUC5AC and SFTPA1 was reported to change, depending on culture age; CXCL12 and Hoxa3 expression rose more in aged cultures. [in vitro]

    DNA interaction

    Bronchogen raised the thermal stability of DNA by 3.1 °C and was reported to bind CNG-containing oligonucleotides, with a preference for CTG, unlike Epitalon, Pinealon and Testagen, which preferred CAG. [in vitro, cell-free]

    Rat bronchial tissue

    In a rat model of nitrogen-dioxide-induced bronchial epithelial remodelling, a month of administration was reported to reverse remodelling features, raise secretory IgA and normalise lavage-cell counts and cytokines. [animal, rat]

    Overview

    In short: Bronchogen (Ala-Glu-Asp-Leu, "AEDL") is a four-residue synthetic peptide from the Khavinson bioregulator family, studied for gene expression and proliferation markers in bronchial epithelial cell cultures.

    Key research facts

  • Synthetic Ala-Glu-Asp-Leu (AEDL) tetrapeptide from the Khavinson short-peptide lineage
  • Studied in cultured human bronchial epithelial cells for proliferation and apoptosis markers
  • Examined for lung-lineage gene expression (NKX2-1, secretoglobins, mucins, surfactant protein A1) in vitro
  • DNA-binding profile characterised in cell-free melting and fluorescence assays
  • Compared with Epitalon (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly), which differs only at the last residue
  • These points summarise lab themes, not human outcomes.

    Bronchogen is built from the same Ala-Glu-Asp stem as Cartalax and Epitalon. Where Epitalon ends in glycine, Bronchogen ends in leucine. The programme matches each short peptide to a tissue, and Bronchogen is the respiratory one: the patent and the experimental papers pair it with bronchial epithelium.

    The strongest data are in vitro. In cultured human embryonic bronchial epithelial cells (the FLECH line), Bronchogen was reported to raise the proliferation marker Ki67 and the anti-apoptotic protein Mcl-1 and to lower p53, with the largest Ki67 change in cells at late passage. Expression of lung-lineage genes also changed, and the peptide raised the melting temperature of DNA by 3.1 °C in a cell-free assay. A rat study of nitrogen-dioxide-induced bronchial remodelling reports epithelial and immune-marker changes after a month of administration.

    It is supplied here as a lyophilised research powder for in-vitro and preclinical use. No analytical report for the supplied material has been published yet, so this page quotes no purity figure.

  • Research class: Synthetic short-peptide bioregulator (Khavinson family)
  • Sequence: Ala-Glu-Asp-Leu (AEDL)
  • Research focus: Bronchial epithelial cell cultures and rat bronchial tissue
  • Evidence base: Cell-culture, cell-free and rat studies from one research network; no human data
  • Proposed Mechanism

    Bronchogen is studied as a tissue-matched transcriptional modulator: the proposed model is that it enters bronchial epithelial cell nuclei and binds DNA at CNG-type sequences. The data are in vitro and in silico, so the model remains a hypothesis.

    Pathway Effect Why it matters DNA binding Preferential binding to CNG sequences with a CTG preference; DNA melting temperature raised by 3.1 °C The proposed route to gene-level effects; measured cell-free only Proliferation and survival markers Ki67 and Mcl-1 up, p53 down in bronchial epithelial cultures Largest at late passage, where the cultures show age-related decline Lung-lineage transcription NKX2-1, secretoglobin, FOXA, mucin and surfactant-protein genes changed with culture age Ties the effect to the tissue of origin rather than to broad cell growth Chemokine and homeobox markers CXCL12 and Hoxa3 expression stimulated, more strongly in aged cultures Reported in two independent tissue models from the same group Deeper dive for scientific readers

    The Khavinson hypothesis is that ultrashort peptides act as endogenous gene regulators, matched to tissue. For Bronchogen the evidence is a set of cell-culture readouts on a single embryonic bronchial epithelial line, DNA melting and fluorescence experiments, spectroscopy interpreted by the authors as major-groove binding at guanine N7, and a rat inhalation-injury study. The authors describe the "geroprotective" reading of the culture data as a hypothesis for further study, not a measured outcome. No independent laboratory has reproduced the findings and no human study was found.

    Common Questions People Are Asking

    What is Bronchogen?

    Bronchogen is the name used for the synthetic tetrapeptide Ala-Glu-Asp-Leu (AEDL), developed in the Khavinson short-peptide programme and studied in bronchial epithelial cell cultures. It is supplied here as a laboratory research powder only.

    Is the sequence AEDL or ADEL?

    Most sources, including the patent and the PubChem compound record, give Ala-Glu-Asp-Leu (AEDL). A few papers from the same group print Ala-Asp-Glu-Leu. The composition, formula (C18H30N4O9) and average mass (446.46 Da) are identical either way. This page uses AEDL.

    What does the research on Bronchogen show?

    In cultured human bronchial epithelial cells it was reported to raise Ki67 and Mcl-1 and lower p53, with larger effects at late passage, and to change lung-lineage gene expression. A rat study reports changes in bronchial epithelium after nitrogen-dioxide exposure. All of it is preclinical and from one research network.

    Is there a Certificate of Analysis for Bronchogen?

    Not yet. No independent analytical report has been published for this material, so no purity figure is quoted.

    Is there human data on Bronchogen?

    No human study was found in the literature cited here. Bronchogen is sold strictly for in-vitro and preclinical research, not for human or veterinary use.

    Research use only - all claims made on this site are for testing and research use only.

    Pharmacokinetics

    Stability Lyophilised powder: store in freezer (−20 °C). Reconstituted: refrigerate 1–6 °C, away from sunlight. Notes Laboratory research material. No human dosing exists for this compound and none is published or recommended here.

    Evidence Tier

    Overall: Tier 3: Limited / anecdotal

    Bronchogen has a small preclinical record from one research network: cultured bronchial epithelial cells, cell-free DNA studies and rat models. There are no human data and no independent replication, and one paper's "geroprotective" wording is the authors' hypothesis. It is supplied as unapproved laboratory material.

    About Bronchogen (AEDL): Short-Peptide Bioregulator Research Guide

    Bronchogen is the respiratory-tissue peptide of the Khavinson programme. The patent that covers it (US 7,625,870 B2) describes classical peptide synthesis of Ala-Glu-Asp-Leu, and the first journal use of the peptide in organotypic rat tissue cultures dates to 2006. A 2014 study in the journal Lung gave the clearest account of what it does to human bronchial epithelial cells in culture.

    One detail deserves a plain statement. Most sources, including the patent and the compound record in PubChem, write the sequence as Ala-Glu-Asp-Leu. A few papers from the same group print the order as Ala-Asp-Glu-Leu. Both orders have the same composition and the same formula and mass, and this page follows the patent and PubChem.

    New-U Research Compounds supplies Bronchogen as a lyophilised research powder in sealed 10-vial packs of 20 mg vials. No analytical report for the supplied material has been published yet, and this page makes no purity or certificate claim. It is for in-vitro and preclinical research only and nothing here is medical advice.
