Sleep architecture.
Short peptides that modulate slow-wave activity, sleep onset, and continuity. The 2026 Gong RCT anchors this cluster.
§ About this topic
Sleep-architecture research covers short-peptide and protein-derived peptide effects on slow-wave activity, sleep onset latency, and night-time continuity. Gong 2026 (Nutrients) supplies an RCT measuring objective sleep architecture in adults with mild sleep complaints; Mu 2024 and Roy 2018 add DSIP-class mechanism context for the underlying neuropeptide signalling.
