KAFDITYVRLKF
KAFDITYVRLKF is a selective, competitive integrin αvβ3 binder. KAFDITYVRLKF induces the production of MMP-9. KAFDITYVRLKF blocks monocyte migration, promotes melanoma cell migration, protects neurons, and improves motor and cognitive functions. KAFDITYVRLKF can be used in research related to melanoma and Parkinson's disease.

Biological Activity
|
MMP-9 |
αvβ3 |
KAFDITYVRLKF (100 μg/mL; 5 h) strongly promotes the migration of B16-F10 mouse melanoma cells in Boyden chamber assays[1].
KAFDITYVRLKF (2-20 μg/mL; 16 h) dose-dependently promotes the secretion of MMP-9 by B16-F10 mouse melanoma cells, increasing the secretion level by approximately 8-fold after treatment at 20 μg/mL for 16 h, but exerts no effect on the production of MMP-2[1].
KAFDITYVRLKF selectively binds to αvβ3 and reduces the migration of monocytes across endothelial cells[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Line:B16-F10 mouse melanoma cells
-
Concentration:100 μg/mL

Result:Stimulated migration of B16-F10 cells, with the strongest enhancement activity among tested peptides.
Showed activity comparable to that of peptide A-13.
KAFDITYVRLKF (2 mg/100 g; intravenous injection; once daily for 14 consecutive days) protects dopaminergic and γ-aminobutyric acidergic neurons, alleviates neuroinflammation and blood-brain barrier disruption, and improves motor and cognitive functions in mice with MPTP (HY-W114750)-induced Parkinson's disease[2].
KAFDITYVRLKF (2 mg/100 g; intravenous injection; once daily for 14 consecutive days) protects dopaminergic and γ-aminobutyric acidergic neurons, alleviates neuroinflammation and blood-brain barrier disruption, and improves motor and cognitive functions in rats with Parkinson's disease induced by 6-OHDA (HY-B1081)[2].
