We devised an endosome-escaping HLAH peptide by replacing K in KLAK peptide with H (Fig
Unlike signal peptides (e.g., palmitoyl pentapeptide-4) that primarily stimulate collagen synthesis, or carrier peptides (e.g., manganese tripeptide-1) that facilitate mineral transport, GHK-Cu functions as a copper transporter with direct antimicrobial activity
Hippocampus and nitric oxide
Penetratin, a cationic CPP (RQIKIWFQNRRMKWKK) with a hydrophobic and amphipathic nature, is derived from Drosophila homeodomain and is mainly internalized into cells via macropinocytosis ( in vivo ( in silico analysis identified the moieties essential for penetratins carrier ability and the variants, including shuffle (R,K fix) 2 ( via the interaction between L-penetratin and plasma membrane ( Since penetratin has the disadvantages that relatively high doses of penetratin are required for nasal insulin absorption ( Additional in silico analysis using molecular orbital study with self-organizing map (SOM) classification, identified the novel penetratin analog named PenetraMax (KWFKIQMQIRRWKNKR) ( It was suggested that improved efficiency of Shuffle (R,K fix) 2 and PenetraMax is due to the rearrangement of hydrophobic Trp residues (Lensink et al., 2005
