Characteristics and Applications of Bioactive Peptides in Skin Care

Abstract

1) Bioactive peptides (BAP) showed excellent cosmetic activity than bio-materials such as caffeic acid (CA), gallic acid (GA), and nicotinic acid (NA). Caffeoyl tripeptide-1 (CT-1) is a BAP that is stabilized with Gly-His-Lys (GHK) tripeptide and CA by using Fmoc solid phase peptide synthesis. Digalloyl tetrapeptide-19 (DT-19) is stabilized by combining Lys-Glu-Cys-Gly with GA and nicotinoyl tripeptide-1 (NT-1) is synthesized by GHK and NA. According to experiments, CT-1 has an excellent anti-oxidant function even with a very small amount of 10 ppm CT-1. DT-19's tyrosinase inhibition activity has the better effect of about 28.57% in 0.01% and 33.33% in 0.005% of concentration and about 7.89% in 0.001% concentration than vitamin-C. In addition, NT-1 is safer than the NA. Almost BAPs like pal-KTTKS, acetyl hexapeptide, and copper tripeptide-1 have the anti-wrinkle effect while DT-19 and NT-1 are applicable for potential BAPs focused on the whitening effect. The three kinds of BAPs like CT-1, DT-19, and NT-1 consisting of amino acids are safe to the skin, and have more excellent stability than bio-materials which are found to be unstable and cause skin irritation. Due to the high biological activity of BAP in the

A novel tetrapeptide for the treatment of hair loss identified in ginseng berry: in silico characterization and molecular docking with TGF-β2

“…In addition, peptides synthesized with the sequence of the active site of a protein show activity similar to that of the protein. In addition, peptides can be easily obtained compared to proteins and are advantageous in storage and activity maintenance, so they can be used in various fields (Kim et al 2011;Moh et al 2011).…”

A Clinical Study on Anti-wrinkle Efficacy of a Cosmetics Containing Oligoarginine Conjugation of Palmitoyl-GHK peptide for Skin Penetrating

“…Recently, there has been a growing interest in using peptides, an amino acid polymer, as a functional material for wrinkle improvement in cosmetics. Peptides have excellent physiological activity, are safe because they are in vivo, are stable in light and air, and are smaller than proteins, so they can be synthesized, so they are highly likely to be used as cosmetic materials [4][5]. GHK (glycyl-histidyl-lysine), which was first isolated from human serum and known as a hepatocellular growth factor, is a typical wrinkle-improving functional peptide.…”
