Cardiogen is a short synthetic peptide bioregulator, built from just three amino acids in the sequence Ala-Glu-Asp. It is best known for its role in cardiovascular and cardiac-tissue research, and its very small size is what makes it a clean tool for studying tissue-specific peptide signaling.
It comes out of the well-documented Khavinson line of peptide bioregulator work, which has been written up in the gerontology literature (Khavinson & Anisimov, 2009). That background is why short peptides like this one keep showing up as reference compounds in the lab.
