Peptide redesign for inhibition of the complement system: Targeting age-related macular degeneration

PURPOSE: To redesign a complement-inhibiting peptide with the potential to become a therapeutic for dry and wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). METHODS: We present a new potent peptide (Peptide 2) of the compstatin family. The peptide is developed by rational design, based on a mechanistic b...
