Vilon is a synthetic dipeptide (L-Lys-L-Glu), one of the shortest Khavinson peptide bioregulators, originally associated with the active fraction of thymic peptide preparations. In the research literature it is studied as an immunomodulatory and geroprotective short peptide, with reported effects on gene expression and cell proliferation in experimental models.
