What is HEP-1?
HEP-1 (Hepatoprotective Peptide-1) is a synthetic cytoprotective peptide designed to protect hepatocytes from various forms of cellular injury. HEP-1 demonstrates significant hepatoprotective properties in research settings, shielding liver cells from oxidative damage, chemical toxins, and inflammatory insult. For published research, see PubMed studies on hepatoprotective peptides{:target=“_blank” rel=“noopener”}.
HEP-1’s multi-target cytoprotective mechanism makes it a valuable research tool for studying liver cell biology, toxicology, and potential therapeutic avenues for hepatic injury.
Best-Peptides supplies research-grade HEP-1 with guaranteed ≥99% purity and full analytical documentation.
How Does HEP-1 Work?

FAQ
HEP-1 is studied as a hepatoprotective peptide that demonstrates cytoprotective effects on hepatocytes. Research focuses on its ability to protect liver cells from oxidative stress, toxin-induced damage, and inflammatory injury.
HEP-1 is believed to exert its hepatoprotective effects through modulation of oxidative stress pathways, stabilisation of hepatocyte membranes, and reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokine release in liver tissue.
HEP-1 acts through multiple cytoprotective mechanisms including upregulation of antioxidant enzymes, inhibition of lipid peroxidation, and modulation of apoptotic signalling pathways in hepatocytes.
Store lyophilised HEP-1 at -20°C for long-term stability. Once reconstituted, keep at 2-8°C and use within 4 weeks. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Our HEP-1 is ≥99% pure as verified by HPLC. Each batch includes a Certificate of Analysis with purity data and mass spectrometry identity confirmation.
Yes, HEP-1 is often studied in combination with other hepatoprotective compounds. Researchers should consider potential additive or synergistic cytoprotective effects when designing combination studies.
Reconstitute in sterile bacteriostatic water or PBS. Add solvent slowly along the vial wall and gently swirl to dissolve. HEP-1 dissolves readily in aqueous solution.
HEP-1 is available in 5mg vials (10 × 5mg per pack) for research applications.
