A fibronectin-derived cell survival peptide belongs to a new class of epiviosamines
In this issue, Lin et al. report the discovery of P12, a 14 amino acid peptide from the first fibronectin type III domain of fibronectin, which has the capability of enhancing cell survival in culture and improving wound healing in rat skin. P12 belongs to a new class of bioactive peptides that they...

Sumario: | In this issue, Lin et al. report the discovery of P12, a 14 amino acid peptide from the first fibronectin type III domain of fibronectin, which has the capability of enhancing cell survival in culture and improving wound healing in rat skin. P12 belongs to a new class of bioactive peptides that they have named epiviosamines. Epiviosamines may have clinical applications. |
