Q-Peptide
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Q-Peptide is an angiopoietin-1 derived peptide (QHREDGS). Q-Peptide interacts with β1-integrin, binds to integrins on the surface of osteoblasts, and serves as an acyl donor substrate for Streptomyces mobaraensis transglutaminase. Q-Peptide activates Akt, MAPKp42/44, ILK, ERK1/2, and downregulates caspase-3/7. Q-Peptide inhibits cell apoptosis, enhances cell adhesion and migration, and promotes osteoblast differentiation, bone matrix deposition and mineralization. Q-Peptide can be used in studies related to myocardial infarction, bone regeneration, diabetic wound repair and human induced pluripotent stem cells.

In Vitro
Q-Peptide (QHREDGS) (5-500 μM; 5 continuous passages, 7 days) improves human induced pluripotent stem cell (BJ1D, 0901B, IMR90) expansion and viability in feeder-dependent culture by reducing caspase-dependent apoptosis, without altering proliferation, while having no significant effect on human embryonic stem cells (H9)[1].
Q-Peptide (50 μM; 5 continuous passages) preserves the in vitro pluripotency of human induced pluripotent stem cells (BJ1D, 0901B)[1].
Q-Peptide (5-500 μM; 48h) significantly increases colony number and size in feeder-free human induced pluripotent stem cells cultured on Matrigel[1].
Q-Peptide (50 μM; 0min-24h) increases integrin-linked kinase (ILK) expression, and increases expression and activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2) across multiple time points, without affecting AKT activation[1].
Q-Peptide (7.2-29.0 mM; 6h) dose-dependently enhances human induced pluripotent stem cell adhesion to non-adhesive PEG hydrogels, and this interaction is mediated by β1-integrins[1].
Q-Peptide (200 μM; 40 min) potently acts as a substrate for Streptomyces mobaraensis transglutaminase (STG), with a cross-linking conversion yield of 93.0%[4].

In Vivo
QP-derived functional peptide hydrogel (1% w/v, for local single injection) mediated mesenchymal stem cell transplantation can improve cardiac function (EF and FS), reduce infarct size, collagen content and cardiomyocyte apoptosis in rat myocardial infarction models. This treatment also elevates the survival rate of transplanted cells and promotes angiogenesis. Ctf1 pretreatment can further enhance the therapeutic effects of QP-based hydrogel mediated mesenchymal stem cell transplantation[5].

In Vivo:
Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
