What is PE-22-28?

PE-22-28 represents a novel approach to mood research — targeting TREK-1 potassium channels rather than traditional monoamine pathways. Early animal data suggests rapid-onset effects, distinguishing it from conventional approaches that require weeks.

Research Applications

TREK-1 channel research, rapid-onset mood modulation, serotonergic signaling, hippocampal neurogenesis, and stress resilience models.

Dosage Information (Research Use)

Animal research: 100-500 mcg/kg intranasal or IV. Human dosing not established. Research use only.

Reconstitution & Handling

Standard BAC water reconstitution.

Half-Life & Pharmacokinetics

Not well characterized.

Reported Observations in Literature

Limited data — primarily animal studies. Potassium channel modulation requires careful research protocol design.

How PE-22-28 Works

PE-22-28 is a synthetic analog of spadin that blocks TREK-1 potassium channels. TREK-1 channel inhibition increases serotonergic neurotransmission and has shown rapid antidepressant-like effects in rodent models — taking effect within days rather than the weeks required by conventional antidepressants.

Research Findings

Animal data shows rapid onset of mood-modulating effects (4 days vs. 21+ days for SSRIs). Also promotes hippocampal neurogenesis. Very early-stage research — no human clinical trials published.

Dosage & Administration

Animal research: 100-500 mcg/kg intranasal or IV. Human dosing not established. Research use only.

Safety & Side Effects

Limited data — primarily animal studies. Potassium channel modulation requires careful research protocol design.

Important: All safety information is derived from published research, primarily animal studies. No controlled human clinical trial data exists unless explicitly noted. This compound is sold for research purposes only.
