Therapeutic peptides are short chains of amino acids that have specific biological activity and can be used to treat a variety of medical conditions. These peptides are naturally occurring or synthetically produced, and they play crucial roles in regulating numerous physiological processes, such as cell growth, immune function, metabolism, and tissue repair. Peptides are essentially the building blocks of proteins, and their therapeutic applications stem from their ability to mimic or influence the body’s natural biological pathways.
Therapeutic peptides work by interacting with specific receptors or enzymes in the body. These interactions can trigger a cascade of beneficial biological effects. By targeting precise areas of the body, peptides can offer highly targeted treatments with minimal side effects.
Some therapeutic peptides act as:
