SPG-178
SPG-178 is a synthetic neutral Self-assembling peptide. In neutral aqueous solution, SPG-178 spontaneously assembles into an antiparallel β-sheet nanoscale three-dimensional hydrogel (SPG-178-Gel) through electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions, and biologically mimics the natural extracellular matrix (ECM) to provide a microenvironment that promotes cell proliferation and angiogenesis.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
SPG-178 promotes neurite outgrowth in in vitro cultured motor neurons, accompanied by increased expression of NGF, BDNF, NT-4, TrkA, and TrkB[2].
1.5% SPG-178 (0.8-1.5%; up to 72 h) significantly increases the viability/proliferation of rPDL cells at 72 h compared to 0.8% SPG-178 and untreated controls[3].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
-
Cell Line:rPDL cells
-
Concentration:0.8% (SPG-178); 1.5% (SPG-178)
-
Incubation Time:72 h
-
Result:Demonstrated a rapid increase in viability/proliferation at 72 h in the 1.5% SPG-178 group.
Showed only a moderate increase in the 0.8% SPG-178 or the control group.
At 72 h, cell viability/proliferation of the 1.5% SPG-178 group was significantly greater than that of the control group or 0.8% SPG-178 group.
In Vivo
SPG-178 (1.5% 2 mL; topical application; single administration; 3 days) prevents pancreatic fistula and significantly reduces ascites amylase levels in an SD rat pancreatic fistula model[6].
SPG-178 (0.8% 200 μL combined with 0.2 g bone fragments; local implantation; single administration; 56 days) promotes new bone formation and bone fusion in the Kbl:JW rabbit posterolateral lumbar fusion model[7].
SPG-178 (1.0%-1.5% 100 μL; topical application; single administration; 10 min-7 days) exhibits significant topical hemostatic efficacy by shortening bleeding time in a Wistar rat model of liver incision hemorrhage[8].

-
Animal Model:Wistar (Male, 10 wk old, 250-300 g, periodontal defect model)[3]
-
Dosage:50 µl of 1.5% SPG-178
-
Administration:local implantation; single application; 2, 4 weeks
-
Result:Promoted the filling of connective tissue in the periodontal defect area and accelerated early cell proliferation.
Accelerated new bone formation, significantly increasing the bone volume fraction.
Limited epithelial down-growth, facilitating the robust regeneration of periodontal ligaments.
-
Animal Model:Sprague-Dawley (SD) (male, eight-week-old, 272-364 g, pancreatic fistula model)[6]
-
Dosage:2 mL of SPG-178 (1.5 w/w%)
-
Administration:topical application; single dose; 3 days
-
Result:Significantly reduced ascitic amylase levels at 3 days post-operation.
Tightly covered the surface of the pancreatic stump, reducing the invasion of inflammatory cells and the destruction of pancreatic acinar cells.
Formed a fibrous tissue or mesothelium covering on its surface, effectively blocking the leakage of pancreatic juice.
-
Animal Model:Kbl:JW (male, 20 weeks old, 3-3.5 kg)[7]
-
Dosage:200 μl of 0.8% hydrogel (mixed with 0.2 g of bone chips)
-
Administration:local implantation in the fusion area; single dose; treatment duration of 56 days
-
Result:Induced clear new bone formation.
Promoted a high amount of calcified new bone attached to the lamina, particularly at the margin of the implant.
