IllumiNeuro is a cognitive enhancement peptide blend combining four nootropic peptides: PE-22-28 (neuritogenic), Pinealon (pineal bioregulator), NA-Semax Amidate (neuroprotective/cognitive), and NA-Selank Amidate (anxiolytic/cognitive). The standard formulation contains 48mg total (PE-22-28 10mg + Pinealon 10mg + NA-Semax 20mg + NA-Selank 8mg). This blend targets multiple neurological pathways for comprehensive cognitive support, though no clinical studies exist on this specific four-peptide combination.

Mechanism of Action

Each peptide contributes distinct neurological mechanisms: PE-22-28 promotes neurite outgrowth and neural connectivity through sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor modulation; Pinealon is a bioregulator that supports pineal gland function and circadian regulation; NA-Semax Amidate provides BDNF upregulation and neuroprotection; NA-Selank Amidate offers anxiolytic effects through GABA modulation and immune-neuroendocrine regulation. Together, they theoretically address cognitive enhancement, neuroprotection, mood support, and neural regeneration.

Research Indications

Cognitive Enhancement
Memory & Learning effective

Combined BDNF support and neuritogenic effects may enhance memory formation and learning.

Focus & Concentration effective

NA-Semax component supports sustained attention and mental clarity.

Neuroprotection moderate

Multiple pathways protecting neural tissue from oxidative stress and damage.

Mood & Anxiety
Anxiety Reduction effective

NA-Selank provides anxiolytic effects through GABA modulation.

Stress Adaptation moderate

Immune-neuroendocrine support helps with stress resilience.

Mood Support moderate

Combined effects on neurotransmitter systems may improve overall mood.

Neural Health
Neurite Outgrowth moderate

PE-22-28 promotes neural connectivity and neurite extension.

Circadian Regulation moderate

Pinealon supports healthy sleep-wake cycles and pineal function.

Dosing Protocols

Subcutaneous injection is the standard delivery method. Some users also administer intranasally for more direct CNS effects. Amidate forms (NA-Semax and NA-Selank) have enhanced stability and duration.
