DSIP

aka Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide

Nootropic / Cognitive

Mechanism

DSIP is a nonapeptide (Trp-Ala-Gly-Gly-Asp-Ala-Ser-Gly-Glu) isolated in 1977 from the cerebral blood of rabbits during electrically induced sleep. Mechanism remains uncertain and the clinical evidence base is weak. Not FDA-approved — research use only.

Deuterium Labeling of Isoaspartic and Isoglutamic Acids for Mass Spectrometry Analysis
Miyagi M, Kiesel E, Neumbo K, Nakazawa T. · Analytical chemistry (2024) ·

Isoaspartic acid (isoAsp) is a common protein modification that spontaneously arises from asparagine or aspartic acid and has been linked to various diseases and health conditions. However, current methods for identifying isoAsp sites in proteins often suffer from ambiguity and have not gained widespread adoption.
