Humanin Research for Neurodegeneration
An evidence-based overview of research examining Humanin in the context of neurodegeneration. This page synthesizes findings from peer-reviewed literature.
Research Summary
Humanin was discovered specifically for its ability to protect neurons from Alzheimer's-related death. Preclinical studies show protection against amyloid-beta toxicity, reduced pathology in transgenic mice, and broad neuroprotective effects. All evidence is preclinical; no human therapeutic trials completed.
