Researchers tested a lab-made peptide called Syn‑Ake and found it sticks well to proteins linked to aging (MMP‑13 and SIRT1), can neutralize free radicals in a test tube, and appears safe in basic cell‑toxicity and bacterial mutation assays. The work is all computer‑modeling and lab‑bench work, not human trials.
