  • Description
    Kojro et al. observed that the PAC1 agonists PACAP-27 (H-1172) and PACAP-38 strongly increased the activity of α-secretase. Upregulation of this APP-degrading enzyme promotes the non-amyloidogenic processing of APP, i.e. reduces the production of Aβ40/42, and thus may help to prevent Alzheimer’s disease. Nasally applied PACAP-38 in APP[V717I]-transgenic mice additionally enhanced the production of the Aβ-degrading enzyme neprilysin via induction of somatostatin.

  • 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.
