SNAP-8 (Acetyl Octapeptide-3) is a synthetic peptide fragment modeled after the N-terminal end of SNAP-25, a protein involved in the regulation of neurotransmitter release.
It has been widely studied in cosmetic and biochemical research for its ability to modulate muscle contraction pathways, making it a valuable research analog in studies of neurotransmission, peptide receptor signaling, and expression modulation.
As an extension of Argireline (Acetyl Hexapeptide-8), SNAP-8 exhibits enhanced stability and affinity in neurochemical pathway studies, often utilized for exploring synaptic signaling and vesicle exocytosis at the molecular level.
In vitro investigations of SNARE complex interactions and neurotransmitter release mechanisms.
Research on neuromodulatory peptides and their roles in cellular communication.
Comparative studies between SNAP-8 and shorter analogs such as Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 (Argireline).
Analytical reference material for peptide structure-activity and stability research.
