Difopein (TFA), a specific and competitive inhibitor of 14-3-3 protein (a highly conserved eukaryotic regulatory molecule), blocking the ability of 14-3-3 to bind to target proteins and inhibits 14-3-3/Ligand interactions. Difopein (TFA) leads to induction of apoptosis and enhances the ability of cisplatin to kill cells.

PTD-p65-P1 Peptide is a nuclear transcription factor NF-kappaB inhibitor, composed of a membrane-translocating peptide sequence generated from antennapedia (PTD) conjugated with p65-P1, which selectively inhibits activation induced by various inflammatory stimuli. PTD-p65-P1 suppressed NF-kappaB activation induced by lipopolysaccharide, interleukin-1, okadaic acid, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, H(2)O(2), and cigarette smoke condensate as well as that induced by TNF.

Palmitoyl tripeptide-1 has effects on the synthesis of collagen, fibronectin and hyaluronic acid in human skin fibroblasts, and can be used in the preparation of anti-aging cosmetics.
