What is Cibinetide?

Cibinetide is a synthetic non-erythropoietic peptide derived from erythropoietin's tissue-protective signaling region. It is studied for anti-inflammatory and reparative effects without the hematocrit-raising activity of EPO.

Key Benefits & Mechanisms

tissue protection

anti-inflammatory signaling

microvascular support

nerve repair support

Research Summary

Cibinetide has been investigated as a tissue-protective EPO-mimetic that can modulate innate immune and repair pathways. Early studies have explored neuropathy, ischemia-reperfusion injury, and inflammatory tissue recovery.

EGF

Human Epidermal Growth Factor

EGF is a small endogenous growth factor that drives epithelial cell migration and proliferation during tissue repair. It has been studied for burns, ulcers, and mucosal healing because it can accelerate re-epithelialization.

FGF2

Recombinant Human Fibroblast Growth Factor 2

FGF2 is a potent mitogen involved in angiogenesis, fibroblast expansion, and granulation tissue formation. It is widely studied in skin repair, ischemic tissue recovery, and chronic wound models.

rhPDGF-BB

Recombinant Human Platelet-Derived Growth Factor-BB

rhPDGF-BB is a dimeric growth factor that recruits fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells into the wound bed. It has a well-known role in chronic wound care, especially diabetic foot ulcers, where it supports granulation and closure.

Palifermin

Recombinant Human Keratinocyte Growth Factor (KGF, FGF7)

Palifermin is a truncated recombinant form of keratinocyte growth factor that protects and expands epithelial tissues. It is most recognized for mucosal protection, but the same biology is relevant to epithelial recovery and healing.
