Palmitoyle pentapeptide-4 / Matrixyl Aide à stimuler la synthèse de collagène et d'élastine. L'action est très similaire au rétinol sans l'irritation.
La description:
Palmitoyle pentapeptide-4 (Pal-Lys-Thr-Thr-Lys-Ser = Pal-KTTKS) contient 5 acides aminés liés à une chaîne aliphatique à 16 carbones pour améliorer la pénétration de la molécule à travers les structures lipidiques de la peau. It is a matricide.Matrikines are messenger peptides capable of regulating cell activities by interacting with their specific receptors. They activate certain genes involved in the process of extracellular matrix renewal and cell proliferation.By activating the neosynthesis of extracellular matrix macromolecules, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 provides an anti-wrinkle effect.[medical citation needed] Studies (in vitro and in vivo) demonstrating the anti-wrinkle efficacy of this peptide have been conducted and published by Sederma and by independent organisations
