Adipotide (FTPP) Actions on Fat Cell Size and Metabolism
Adipotide (FTPP) is considered to be a chimeric peptide (GKGGRAKDC-GG-D(KLAKLAK)2) engineered to target endothelial cells from white-adipose vasculature and induce their apoptosis. As a chimeric peptide, it is believed to consist of two functional parts. The first of...
The Neuroprotective and Gastroprotective Potential of Semax
Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide (Met–Glu–His–Phe–Pro–Gly–Pro) originally derived from fragments of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) but lacking hormonal activity. It consists of a 4-amino acid fragment (Met-Glu-His-Phe), which is a common part in the sequence of...
P021 Peptide: Neuroprotective and Neurotrophic Potential
P021 appears to be a short synthetic peptide that emerged from efforts to identify minimal structural elements of ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) that retain activity while avoiding some of the limitations of the full protein, such as its antigenic potential. The...
Selank Peptide: Potential Support for Neurotransmitters and Neurotrophins
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide, and the seven amino acids in its structure are in the configuration of Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro (TKPRPGP). The peptide appears to be a modified analogue of the endogenously occurring tetrapeptide Tuftsin (TKPR). However, Selank...
Thymulin’s Potential for Modulating Inflammation Signaling
Thymulin, also known as Thymalin, is a zinc-dependent endogenous hormone secreted by the cells of the thymus gland. Researchers have posited that the molecule may play a role in the development and function of immune cells. These are more specifically referred to as...
Vialox Peptide Interactions with Dermal Tissue Topography
Vialox appears to be a synthetic pentapeptide comprising the sequence Gly–Pro–Arg–Pro–Ala (GPRPA), also referred to as pentapeptide-3. It is purportedly derived from proteolytic fragments of snake venom, with its alternating proline residues perhaps lending...
Ipamorelin and CJC-1295 Blend Interactions with The Pituitary Gland
Research posits that blending Ipamorelin and CJC-1295 peptides during in vitro research may provide complementary mechanisms. This may potentially include support for overall stimulation of growth hormone secretion from target cells through distinct yet synergistic...
CJC-1295 and GHRP-6 Blend – Potential Actions on Growth Hormone Synthesis & Anabolic Signaling
CJC-1295 and GHRP-6 are synthetic research peptides that are of interest to researchers primarily for their potential to interact with pituitary gland cells. They may interact with receptors on the pituitary gland that are involved in the synthesis of growth hormone...
CJC-1295 and GHRP-2 Blend – Synergistic Potential on the GH-IGF-1 Axis
CJC-1295 and Growth hormone–releasing peptide–2 (GHRP-2) represent two distinct but potentially complementary strategies for increasing growth hormone (GH) output in laboratory settings. GHRP‑2 is a small, synthetic hexapeptide originally engineered from modifications...
