Description
Sovateltide is a peptide composed of 14 amino acids that has strong biological activity. It can bind to the ET-B receptor and stimulate neural stem cells in the brain by activating the receptor. This stimulation increases blood flow to the brain, protects neurons from programmed cell death, and promotes the formation of new neurons and new blood vessels.

FAQ:
What are the uses of peptides?
Peptides have a wide range of applications in the biomedical field, including:
Drug development: Peptides can be used as lead compounds for drugs or directly as drugs themselves.
Vaccines: Peptides can be used as antigens for vaccine preparation.
Biomaterials: Peptides can be used to construct biomaterials, such as scaffolds for tissue engineering.
Diagnostic reagents: Peptides can be used in the development of diagnostic reagents, such as those for detecting disease-related proteins.
Cosmetics: Certain peptides have moisturizing, anti-aging, and whitening effects and can be added to cosmetics.
Are polypeptides harmful to humans?
Peptides, which are naturally present in the human body, are generally safe for use. However, some peptides may have specific pharmacological activities, and it is advisable to consult with a doctor or a professional before using them.
How is the solubility of peptides?
The solubility of peptides is influenced by various factors, including amino acid sequence, charge, hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity, etc. When dissolving peptides, it is recommended to conduct a small-scale solubility test first, and after confirming complete dissolution, proceed with dilution. Go top bio provides solubility testing services.
If you want to do a biotin modification at the N terminal, do you need to put a gap between the biotin and the peptide sequence?
The standard biotin labeling procedure used by our company is to attach an Ahx to the peptide chain, followed by biotin. Ahx is a 6-carbon compound that acts as a barrier between the peptide and the biotin.
What are the differences between peptides and proteins?
Peptides and proteins are both composed of amino acids, but they differ in molecular weight and length. Generally, those with a molecular weight less than 10,000 daltons (Da) and shorter amino acid chains are called peptides, while those with a larger molecular weight and longer amino acid chains are referred to as proteins.
