Reference summary
Published literature is dominated by cell-line and rodent neuroprotection and metabolic work, with small observational human correlations of circulating humanin to age and metabolic status. Direct human clinical efficacy evidence is not established.
Regulatory and posture
- Categories
- Longevity
- Aliases
- HN, Mitochondrial-derived peptide, Rattin (rat analog)
- Evidence posture
- preclinical - Mostly cell-line and rodent evidence. Human data are observational correlations, not interventional efficacy.
- Regulatory status
- No FDA-approved humanin drug label. Humanin is a 24-amino-acid peptide encoded in the mitochondrial 16S rRNA gene and studied primarily in preclinical neuroprotection and metabolic models.
