Cardiogen是一种短肽，具有生物调节剂的作用。研究表明，它的主要作用是对成纤维细胞，即负责全身组织修复和疤痕形成的细胞，并且它对于改变成纤维细胞活性的能力对各种组织都有潜在的益处。

Though the focus on cardiogen has been on  its role in a variety of cardiovascular diseases (hence the name),  research shows that its ability to alter fibroblast activity has  potential benefits in a variety of tissues. In addition, cardiogen  appears to by a synergistic peptide, enhancing the benefit of certain  standard therapies and thereby improving long-term outcomes while  reducing side effects. Finally, preliminary research in rat models  suggests that cardiogen may increase rates of apoptosis in tumor cells.
