LATEST PEPTIDE ARTICLES

Liraglutide belongs to the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) class and is primarily researched for its potential influence in weight and insulin secretion. Researchers suggest Liraglutide may enhance glucose-dependent insulin secretion from...

B7-33 is a single-chain peptide, synthesized in a soluble form and derived from the naturally occurring protein H2-relaxin. This peptide appears to retain the anti-fibrotic properties of relaxin, reportedly without increasing cAMP production. B7-33 studies have...

ARA-290 is a synthetic 11-amino acid peptide developed to mimic erythropoietin's structure and function (EPO). This hormone is considered to be a production regulator of red blood cells.(1) ARA-290 peptide is a non-erythropoietic peptide that researchers suggest does...

Proxofim peptide, also known as FOXO4-DRI peptide, is a unique therapeutic peptide that has garnered attention recently due to its potential applications in reversing cell senescence. Studies have suggested that the Proxofim peptide may potentially counteract cellular...

Follistatin (FST), a naturally occurring glycoprotein, is universally present in various body tissues. As an autocrine factor,(1) it stimulates the production of a chemical messenger by the cell itself, which binds to the autocrine receptors of the same cell,...

The process of directing the synthesis of a functional gene product, such as a protein or RNA molecule, through the encoded information in a gene is known as gene expression. This process is essential for the proper functioning of cells and organisms. With increasing...

Glucagon-like peptide-1, called GLP-1, is an endogenous peptide composed of 30 amino acids.(1) As the name implies, it primarily works to increase insulin synthesis in the body while decreasing blood sugar levels, protecting pancreatic cells through insulin gene...

Mitochondria are the “powerhouse” of the cell due to their role in delivering cellular functions, including but not limited to cellular metabolism, growth and development, and survival activities. However, with increased age, mitochondrial activities naturally weaken....

Gonadorelin is a synthetic peptide possessing ten amino acids, and all are joined in a sequential form.(1) Structurally like the endogenous GnRH, Gonadorelin has 1-2 amino acid changes within the sequence.(2) Identical to the naturally present GnRH hormones,...
