Certepetide  (Synonyms: CEND-1; iRGD; LSTA1)

Cat. No.: HY-P3448 Purity: 99.40%
COA Handling Instructions

Certepetide (CEND-1) is a bifunctional cyclic peptide (a.k.a. iRGD). Certepetide is a tumor-penetrating enhancer via RGD motif interaction with alphav-integrins and via activating NRP-1, and transforms the solid tumor microenvironment into a temporary agent conduit. Certepetide accumulates in tumors, and is used in the research of pancreatic cancer and other solid tumors.

Description

Certepetide (CEND-1) is a bifunctional cyclic peptide (a.k.a. iRGD). Certepetide is a tumor-penetrating enhancer via RGD motif interaction with alphav-integrins and via activating NRP-1, and transforms the solid tumor microenvironment into a temporary agent conduit. Certepetide accumulates in tumors, and is used in the research of pancreatic cancer and other solid tumors[1][2][3].

IC50 & Target

Alphav-integrins, NRP-1[3].

In Vivo

CEND-1 (iRGD) can modulate the solid tumour microenvironment, enhancing the delivery and therapeutic index of co-administered anti-cancer agents[4].
CEND-1 enhances the penetration of anticancer therapeutics specifically into tumours, but not into normal tissues, it also holds the potential for dose reductions, which can attenuate side effects[4].
CEND-1 (intravenously injected) increases the levels of co-administered Evans blue approximately threefold[5].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
