About DSIP

DSIP (Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide) is a naturally occurring nonapeptide first isolated from rabbit cerebral venous blood during electrically induced sleep by Monnier and Schoenenberger (1977). Research has investigated DSIP in slow-wave sleep architecture, stress-response modulation, hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis regulation and antioxidant pathways. ≥98% HPLC, third-party CoA.

In-depth guide

DSIP 5mg — research overview, mechanism & protocol guidance

DSIP (Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide) is a naturally occurring nonapeptide first isolated from rabbit cerebral venous blood during electrically induced sleep by Monnier and Schoenenberger (1977). Extensively researched for slow-wave sleep architecture, stress-response modulation, HPA-axis regulation and antioxidant pathways. UK Peptides supplies DSIP 5mg as ≥98% HPLC lyophilised powder with a signed third-party Certificate of Analysis.

What is DSIP? A sleep-associated nonapeptide

DSIP is the nine-amino-acid peptide Trp-Ala-Gly-Gly-Asp-Ala-Ser-Gly-Glu, originally identified in cerebral venous blood collected from rabbits during electrical stimulation of the thalamus that induced sleep. The peptide's specific mechanism of action remains an open research question — despite decades of investigation, no dedicated 'DSIP receptor' has been definitively characterised — which has made it a persistent object of study in the neuropeptide literature.

DSIP mechanism and research pathways

Published research has documented DSIP's association with slow-wave (delta) sleep architecture in EEG studies, modulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, protective effects against oxidative stress in neuronal cell models, modulation of somatostatin and beta-endorphin release, and anticonvulsant activity in seizure models. The absence of an identified receptor suggests DSIP may act through multiple upstream neuroendocrine pathways rather than a single defined signalling target.

DSIP research applications

Published research has investigated DSIP in slow-wave sleep and EEG-architecture studies, HPA-axis and cortisol-modulation research, antioxidant and neuroprotection models, stress-response modelling, and chronic-pain and seizure-model research. It is one of the few research peptides with a documented sleep-modulatory profile in preclinical work.

Reconstitution and stability

Store the lyophilised vial at -20°C, sealed and protected from light. Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol) — typically 1ml per 5mg vial. Add solvent slowly down the side of the vial; do not shake. Refrigerate the reconstituted solution at 2–8°C and use within 28 days. Do not refreeze.

≥98% HPLC purity

Every DSIP 5mg vial is independently HPLC-UV tested to ≥98% purity by Janoshik Analytical or Aspen Bioanalytics, with mass-spectrometry identity confirmation against the published molecular weight of 848.83 Da. The signed PDF CoA is supplied with every order.

Storage & handling

Keep it stable, keep it sterile

Storage: Store lyophilised powder at -20°C in a sealed vial. Protect from light and moisture. Allow the vial to reach room temperature before opening to prevent condensation entering the vial. Do not store in a frost-free freezer. Reconstitution: Reconstitute using bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol). Add solvent slowly down the side of the vial — do not shake. Allow to dissolve gently at room temperature. Reconstituted stability: Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C (refrigerated). Use within 28 days. Do not refreeze after reconstitution. Shipping: All vials are dispatched in insulated mailers with ice packs to maintain cold chain during Royal Mail Tracked 24 transit.

    "Solid all round. DSIP 5mg purity verified independently and matched the CoA closely. Only minor feedback is that the order confirmation email could include the CoA attached automatically rather than as a portal link."

    P. Donovan · 2025-06-05

  • Verified

    "Have stopped sourcing DSIP 5mg from anywhere else. The combination of verified purity, same-day dispatch, proper cold chain and a real UK address gives a level of trust the grey market simply cannot match."

    M. Yusuf · 2025-05-29

  • Verified

    "Ordered DSIP 5mg on behalf of a university research group. Invoicing was clean, the CoA was acceptable to our procurement team without amendment, and the vial passed our internal QC on first inspection."

    Dr. K. Sandhu · 2025-05-22

  • Verified

    "The vial of DSIP 5mg arrived intact, lot number matched the CoA, and reconstitution behaved exactly as expected. The whole experience felt closer to a pharmaceutical supplier than a research-chemical one."

    J. Harkness · 2025-05-15

  • Verified

    "Honestly the most professional UK peptide source I have used in six years of lab work. The DSIP 5mg batch was clean, documentation thorough, and customer service answered an analytical question within hours."

    R. Beaumont · 2025-05-08
