Noopept is a constituent of Pinellia ternata?

I was researching the traditional Chinese herb Pinellia ternata, being curious about its antinausea properties as a potential 5-HT3 antagonist like ginger. However I noticed in the research article listing identified constituents of the plant, a glaring word: “Noopept”. I have previously tried to identify if Noopept or other compounds like racetams have ever been identified in natural sources, but never stumbled across anything until today.
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10696046/
This is found in table 2 of the results section of this paper.
My thought is that if noopept has been identified naturally, it could be marketed as a dietary supplement even if produced synthetically, similar to Berberine HCL sometimes not being a plant extract and rather is synthesized.

That is incredibly exciting oh my god!! Nootropics depot is truly at the forefront this industry. It has been fascinating and inspiring seeing what you guys have done since I first bought products from you back in 2019. Creating new reference standards, breeding a ton of different lions mane species and strains to test bioactives (and I imagine other mushrooms as well), standardizing for incredible potencies, everything has been amazing.
But I have to say, this cell culture thing is a whole next level endeavor and I can’t wait to read the research that you guys come out with. Thank you for all you do!
