Terapetyczne działanie peptydów stosowanych w preparatach kosmetycznych na starzejacą się skórę
PublikacjaW publikacji opisano obecnie stosowane na rynku kosmetycznym peptydy, które można podzielić na trzy grupy: peptydy rozkurczające (tzw. neuropeptydy), transportujące i sygnałowe (stymulujące). Wśród peptydów rozkurczających możemy wymienić: acetylo-heksapeptyd-3 (nazwa rynkowa Argireline), pentapeptyd-3 (nazwa rynkowa Leuphasyl) oraz acetylo-oktapeptyd-1 (nazwa rynkowa SNAP-8). Peptydy transportujące to niezwykle interesująca grupa...

Peptide modification with thiomalonoamide moiety
PublikacjaAbstract: Meldrum acid derivatives under the thermal decomposition are well known source of ketenes. Recently we investigated chemical properties of thiocarbamolyl meldrum acids. We found that 5-(α-alkylamino- α'-sulfhydryl)methylene Meldrum's acids hated in the presence of amines produce thiomalonamides. We used this reaction to the one pot synthesis of series of short peptides containing thiomalonoamide motif.
