What is Vilon?
Vilon is a Khavinson dipeptide bioregulator (Lys-Glu) targeting the thymus and immune system. Studied for T-lymphocyte proliferation, cytokine balance, thymic involution delay, and immune geroprotection. The simplest of the Khavinson series. Research use only.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I reconstitute Vilon?
Add 1–2 mL bacteriostatic water to the lyophilized vial and swirl gently. This dipeptide dissolves within 30 seconds.
How should Vilon be stored?
Store lyophilized vials at −20°C. Reconstituted solution is stable at 2–8°C for up to 4 weeks.
What is unique about Vilon as a bioregulator?
Vilon is the shortest Khavinson bioregulator — a simple Lys-Glu dipeptide. Despite its small size, research from the St. Petersburg Gerontology Institute demonstrates significant immunomodulatory and geroprotective activity, particularly for thymic function.
