Description

Chemotactic Tetrapeptide CAS NO 112275-27-1 is a synthetic peptide sequence designed to mimic and study cellular migration and immune response signaling. This compound is a critical research tool for investigating chemotaxis, the directed movement of cells in response to chemical gradients. It is primarily utilized by researchers and developers in the fields of immunology, oncology, and inflammatory disease research to elucidate biological pathways and screen potential therapeutic agents.

Application

• Immunology Research: Used to study the migration and activation of leukocytes, such as neutrophils and monocytes, in response to inflammatory signals.
• Cancer Research: Employed in assays to investigate tumor cell metastasis and the role of the tumor microenvironment in directing cell movement.
• Drug Discovery & Screening: Serves as a reference standard or active component in high-throughput screening (HTS) platforms to identify novel anti-inflammatory or anti-metastatic compounds.
• Wound Healing Studies: Applied in models to understand the recruitment of cells essential for tissue repair and regeneration.
• Biomaterial & Diagnostic Development: Incorporated into functionalized surfaces or assays to create platforms that study or direct specific cellular behaviors.
• Academic & Pharmaceutical R&D: A fundamental reagent for basic scientific research and the preclinical development of therapies targeting chemokine receptors.
