Furthermore, compound 16 is degraded considerably more slowly in membrane preparations than Ang IV and stimulates proliferation of mouse neural stem cells at low concentrations, supporting a role of IRAP in neurogenesis ( Figure 5 Contrary to the results obtained after modification in the C-terminal of Ang IV where essentially all compounds examined exhibited some activity, oxidative cyclization of the side chains of Cys 1 and Cys 3 and consequently creation of an 11-membered disulfide macrocycle in the N-terminal rendered the inactive compound 20 (Figure 6)
Epigenetic marks such as histone modification hold promise in this aspect
Gastrointestinal Health & Gut Protection Given its origin as a gastric peptide fragment, it is unsurprising that BPC-157 has demonstrated significant interest in gastrointestinal research
