Oxytocin Actions On Neuronal Circuits in Different Mammalian Research Models
Oxytocin is posited to be a cyclic nonapeptide composed of nine amino acids in the sequence Cys–Tyr–Ile–Gln–Asn–Cys–Pro–Leu–Gly-NH2 (CYIQNCPLG-NH2), with a molecular weight of approximately 1007 Da....
Kisspeptin 45-54 Peptide Interactions with Hypothalamic and Neuronal Cells
Kisspeptin 45-54 is posited to be a synthetic, 10–amino acid research peptide that is also referred to as kisspeptin 10. It may correspond to residues 45–54 of the parent kisspeptin precursor, and...
T-31 Peptide Interactions with Cellular Aging, Renewal, and Stress Pathways
T-31 is posited to be a synthetic, three–amino acid research peptide consisting of the sequence Ala-Glu-Asp (AED), and is also sometimes referred to in the literature as Cartalax. Structurally, it...
PNC-27 Peptide Interactions with Different Tumor Cell Lines
PNC-27 is posited to be a synthetic, 32–amino acid research peptide composed of two main segments. Specifically, its N-terminus appears to be made of a p53-derived HDM-2–binding sequence which...
Tesamorelin’s Potential for Anabolic and Catabolic Signaling in Cells
Tesamorelin is considered to be a synthetic analog of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH), designed to activate GHRH receptors in pituitary gland cells. The peptide consists of the full...
Pal-AHK Interactions with Follicular Cells Growth and Apoptosis
Pal-AHK appears to be a tripeptide with the sequence alanine–histidine–lysine, which has been palmitoylated via a C16 fatty acid chain to the N-terminus of the sequence.(1) The peptide sequence...
Interactions Between PE-22-28 and Nerve Cells
PE-22-28 is a 7-amino-acid peptide derived from the degradation products of spadin (PE 12-28), which itself originates from the post-translational maturation of sortilin. Researchers have posited...
GHK-Cu Peptide: A Review of Mechanisms and Studies
GHK-Cu is a tripeptide-copper complex formed by the chelation of glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine (GHK) with a divalent copper ion (Cu²+). The GHK sequence is posited to arise endogenously from the...
Epigenetic Potential of Vesilute
Vesilute or Vesilut appears to be one of Khavinson’s peptides, which are considered bioregulators that may interact with specific parts of DNA and support gene expression. It has the sequence of...
