01Mechanism of Action

Parameter
Chonluten
GHRP-2
Primary target
Bronchial epithelial cells and respiratory mucosa tissue complexes
Ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a) on anterior pituitaryBowers 1990
Pathway
Bioregulatory peptide interaction → modulation of proliferative and inflammatory pathways in monocyte/macrophage populationsAvolio 2022
GHS-R1a → Gαq → Ca²⁺ → GH vesicle exocytosisBowers 2002
Downstream effect
Regulation of proliferative activity and inflammatory mediator production in respiratory-associated immune cellsAvolio 2022
Strong GH pulse + IGF-1 elevation; appetite increase via ghrelin agonismBowers 2002
Feedback intact?
Yes, with somatostatin feedback active
Origin
Khavinson bioregulator peptide complex derived from bronchial mucosa tissue extract methodology
Synthetic hexapeptide; developed by Bowers/Tulane group in the 1980sBowers 1990

05Administration Protocol

Parameter
Chonluten
GHRP-2
1. Preparation
Typically supplied as capsules or sublingual tablets. No reconstitution required. Store in cool, dry place away from light.
Add 2 mL bacteriostatic water to 5 mg vial → 2.5 mg/mL.
2. Oral route
Swallow capsule with water, 20–30 minutes before meals or as directed. Traditional Khavinson protocol emphasizes empty stomach for absorption.
SQ — abdomen or thigh. Rotate sites.
3. Sublingual route
Place tablet under tongue, allow dissolution for 1–2 minutes. Avoid swallowing immediately. Claimed to bypass first-pass metabolism.
Pre-sleep + fasted preferred.
4. Timing
Morning dose preferred; may split into twice-daily if higher dose used. Consistency emphasized in bioregulator protocols.
Lyophilised: room temp, light-protected. Reconstituted: refrigerate ≤30 days.
5. Cycle protocol
10–30 day cycles common in Russian tradition. Rest period of 1–3 months between cycles often recommended, though no published evidence for this approach.
29–31G, 4–8 mm insulin syringe.

+ CJC-1295 (no DAC)
Strong
View CJC-1295 (no DAC)

GHRP-2 + CJC-1295-no-DAC is a higher-amplitude alternative to the ipamorelin + CJC-1295 stack. GHRP-2 produces a stronger pulse but with cortisol + prolactin signal — choose when maximum GH amplitude is the goal and the side-effect tolerance is acceptable.

GHRP-2
100–200 mcg SQ · pre-sleep
CJC-1295 (no DAC)
100 mcg SQ · same injection
Primary benefit
High-amplitude GH pulse, body composition
