γ-Fibrinogen 377-395
γ-Fibrinogen377-395 is a fibrinogen-derived inhibitory peptide, as well as fibrinogen epitope. γ-Fibrinogen377-395 blocks microglia activation and inhibits fibrin-Mac-1 interactions in vitro, and suppresses experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in mice in vivo. γ-Fibrinogen377-395 can be used for research in multiple sclerosis (MS), and other neuroinflammatory diseases associated with blood-brain barrier disruption and microglia activation.

Biological Activity
γ-Fibrinogen377-395 (200 μM) blocks fibrin binding to Mac-1 that inhibits and adhesion of Mac-1-overexpressing cells to immobilized fibrinogen. γ-Fibrinogen377-395 inhibits microglia activation[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Immunized with γ377-395 peptide before EAE induction, γ377-395 peptide-vaccinated mice has an increases in motor strength and coordination compared with control[1].
