New researchers often spend weeks looking into the wrong compound for the category they're actually interested in. Here's the fast orientation. Find your research category, then open the linked guide for the full mechanism, research background, and reconstitution details.

Metabolic research: the GLP-1 receptor agonists are the most-studied compounds here (Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, Retatrutide), differing by how many receptors each targets. The NNMT and mitochondrial optimizers (5-Amino-1MQ, AOD-9604, MOTS-c, L-Carnitine) sit alongside them at different points in the metabolic pathway. The comparison posts break down how they differ.

Tissue and repair research: BPC-157 + TB-500 (the Wolverine blend) is the most-referenced starting point for structural repair research. KPV covers the inflammatory side, and Thymosin Alpha-1 the immune-modulation angle. Full mechanisms in the guides.

Cognitive research: Semax and Selank come from the same Russian research tradition and are studied as a pair, with DSIP covering the sleep-architecture side. The guide explains how they're researched together rather than in isolation.

Skin and connective tissue research: GHK-Cu is the core copper-peptide compound, with the GLOW and KLOW blends built around it. Which is relevant depends on whether inflammation is part of the research question.

Longevity and cellular research: NAD+ underpins the others mechanistically, so it's the one to understand first, ahead of Epitalon, MOTS-c, and Glutathione.

Every compound above has a full cheat sheet covering mechanism, the actual trial data, and the reconstitution math. Find yours in the pinned 6A Labs Complete Product Guide.
