About P-21
- Molecular weight
- 578.7 g/mol
P021 is a small peptidergic compound derived from a biologically active region of human ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF, residues 148–151), corresponding to an Ac-Asp-Gly-Gly-Leu-Ala-Gly backbone bearing an adamantylated glycine and a C-terminal amide. In research models it is characterised as an enhancer of BDNF expression and studied for neurotrophic and neurogenic activity.
For laboratory research use only. Not for human or veterinary use.
