Main Information

FOX04-DRI is a synthetic senolytic peptide designed to selectively disrupt the interaction between FOXO4 and p53 in senescent cells. By promoting the safe clearance of dysfunctional “zombie” cells, it reduces chronic inflammation, supports tissue rejuvenation, and may contribute to healthier aging. FOX04-DRI is being investigated as a tool for longevity optimization, recovery enhancement, and regenerative medicine.


Scientific Background

Cellular senescence is one of the key processes behind aging. Over time, certain cells stop dividing but remain active, releasing harmful inflammatory signals often called the “zombie cell effect”. These so called senescent cells build up in tissues, slowing regeneration and contributing to age-related decline.FOX04-DRI is a specially designed peptide that helps the body clear these damaged cells. It works by breaking the link between two proteins (FOXO4 and p53) that normally keep senescent cells alive. Once this link is disrupted, only the harmful cells are removed — while healthy cells remain untouched.Early research has shown that FOX04-DRI may improve tissue health, reduce frailty, and support regeneration. Because of this, it is considered a next-generation anti-aging tool with promising applications in longevity and recovery.v

Usage Instructions

You find the most important facts concerning usage below. For detailed guidance on preparation, administration, and dosage of your product, please refer to the product leaflet provided with your package or at the bottom of this page.

  • Administration route: Subcutaneous (preferred) or intramuscular
  • Needle size: 29–31G (subQ) or 25–27G (IM)
  • Preparation: Reconstitute lyophilized powder with bacteriostatic water before use
  • Storage: Store lyophilized vials at –20 °C; once reconstituted, refrigerate at 2–8 °C and protect from light
  • Timing: Typically administered in cycles, not continuously, due to senolytic mechanism

Dosage Information

Senolytic Protocol (Research Context)

  • 5–10 mg, subcutaneous, once weekly or in intermittent cycles (e.g., 2–3 weeks on, followed by washout)
  • Short, pulsed dosing preferred to minimize off-target effects

Longevity / Recovery Research

  • 5 mg weekly for 2–4 weeks, followed by evaluation phase
  • Often combined with NAD+ boosters or mitochondrial peptides for synergistic anti-aging effects

Important Warnings

  • For research use only — not approved for clinical therapy
  • Avoid continuous long-term use; FOX04-DRI is senolytic and designed for intermittent cycles
  • Not recommended during pregnancy, breastfeeding, or in individuals with active wounds/infections
  • Potential side effects (preclinical): fatigue, mild nausea, or transient tissue sensitivity
  • Always use sterile injection technique and rotate sites
  • Discontinue immediately if severe reactions or unexpected symptoms occur
