Description

A nonapeptide (Trp-Ala-Gly-Gly-Asp-Ala-Ser-Gly-Glu) named for its association with delta-wave (slow-wave) sleep. It appears to influence sleep architecture, stress / HPA-axis responses, and neuroendocrine signaling, though a single receptor isn’t established.

Key research notes:

• Studied for sleep architecture & chronic insomnia
• Stress-modulating / neuroprotective effects in animal models
• Explored in neuroendocrine, pain & withdrawal research
