LSKL, Inhibitor of Thrombospondin (TSP-1) TFA, a tetrapeptide derived from latency-associated protein (LAP)-TGFβ, acts as a competitive antagonist of TGF-β1.
K-(D-1-Nal)-FwLL-NH2 TFA is a potent and high-affinity inverse agonist of the ghrelin receptor, exhibiting Ki values of 4.9 nM in COS7 cells and 31 nM in HEK293T cells. This compound effectively inhibits ghrelin receptor-mediated Gq- and G13-dependent signaling pathways.
FSL-1 TFA, a bacterial-derived toll-like receptor 2 6 (TLR2 6) agonist, enhances resistance to experimental HSV-2 infection[1]. FSL-1 TFA induces MMP-9 production through TLR2 and NF-κB AP-1 signaling pathways in monocytic THP-1 cells[2]. FSL-1 significantly reduces HSV-2 replication in human vaginal epithelial cells (EC)[1].FSL-1 induces significant resistance to experimental genital HSV-2 infection through elaboration of a specific cytokine response profile[1].FSL-1 (50 ng mL, 24 hours) induces MMP-9 expression at both mRNA and protein levels in human monocytic THP-1 cells[2].FSL-1 activates the MAP kinase NF-κB signaling pathway[2]. Cell Viability Assay[1] Cell Line: V11I, V12I or V19I immortalized human vaginal EC FSL-1 application significantly protectes against genital HSV-2 challenge in mice[1]. Animal Model: Female Swiss-Webster mice (weighing 20-25 g)[1] [1]. William A Rose 2nd, et al.

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (1-37), human (TFA), is a highly potent agonist of the GLP-1 receptor and is a pancreatic hormone synthesized through post-translational processing of proglucagon.
TAT-DEF-Elk-1 TFA is a cell-penetrating peptide Elk-1 inhibitor, mimics and specifically interferes with the DEF domain of Elk-1. TAT-DEF-Elk-1 blocks Elk-1 phosphorylation and prevents Elk-1 nuclear translocation without interfering with ERK nor MSK1 act
This is a hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1 a) 19-mer fragment. HIF-1 functions as master regulator of response to oxygen homeostasis. Hypoxia-induced gene expression is initiated when HIF-1 subunit is stabilized in response to a lack of oxygen. This part
RFRP-1(human) TFA, an endogenous NPFF receptor agonist, exhibits potent activity with EC50 values of 0.0011 nM for NPFF2 and 29 nM for NPFF1. It significantly diminishes the contractile function of isolated rat and rabbit cardiac myocytes. Moreover, it decreases heart rate, stroke volume, ejection fraction, and cardiac output, while elevating plasma prolactin levels in rats.
