Results from this study3

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone3

In this study, Delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP).

  1. 01AnimalNot a test of Delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP) aloneAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In mice, the PHD fusion protein (TAT, albumin and DSIP) reduced pentobarbital-induced sleep latency as concentration increased.

    In plain wordsIn mice, a DSIP fusion protein shortened the time to fall asleep after pentobarbital, more at higher doses.

    Summary
    the increase of pentobarbital-induced hypnotic effect characterized by reducing sleep latency and prolonged sleep duration was observed for increasing concentrations of PHD fusion protein (P<0.05)

    Summary · context
    Mice were administered single subcutaneous injections three concentrations of PHD fusion protein (0.5, 1, 2 mg/kg), and the pharmacological activity of PHD fusion protein was studied using classic pentobarbitalinduced sleep test.

    In this study, Delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP).

  3. 03AnimalNot a test of Delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP) aloneAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In mice, the PHD fusion protein at 1.0 and 2.0 mg/kg significantly increased the rate of sleep re-onset compared with vehicle.

    In plain wordsIn mice, higher doses of a DSIP fusion protein made more animals fall asleep again than vehicle did.

    Summary
    different dose of PHD fusion protein could induce the mice to re-sleep in a dose-dependent manner, whereas higher doses of PHD fusion protein (1.0, 2.0 mg/kg) significantly increased the rate of sleep re-onset compared with the vehicle group of mice (P<0.05).
