Description
Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3 is a synthetic peptide that has been studied in combination with other botanical extracts. In vitro research indicates that this peptide can stimulate the production of extracellular matrix proteins, such as hydroxyproline, collagen type 3, and laminin, within dermal papilla cells. This activity is associated with structural support for hair follicles.
Further in vitro observations suggest Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3 may influence inflammatory pathways by decreasing the levels of certain pro-inflammatory cytokines. The peptide's mechanism is linked to supporting the cellular microenvironment of the follicle.

About TFA salt
Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a common counterion from the purification process using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The presence of TFA can affect the peptide's net weight, appearance, and solubility.
Impact on Net Weight: The TFA salt contributes to the total mass of the product. In most cases, the peptide content constitutes >80% of the total weight, with TFA accounting for the remainder.
Solubility: TFA salts generally enhance the solubility of peptides in aqueous solutions.
In Biological Assays: For most standard in vitro assays, the residual TFA levels do not cause interference. However, for highly sensitive cellular or biochemical studies, please be aware of its presence.
