PG-003BDNF Alternative Peptide (TrkB Agonist)

Fully-Chemically Synthesized Peptide with Activity Equivalent to BDNF

Like growth factor BDNF, PG-003 is a growth factor alternative peptide with agonistic activity against the TrkB receptor. In the field of regenerative medicine and cell therapy for the nervous system, which has been extensively researched and developed in recent years, BDNF Alternative Peptide can be used in maintaining the survival and inducing differentiation of nervous system cells.

*This is for illustrative purpose.

We performed a functional comparison test between our BDNF Alternative Peptide (PG-003) and commercially available recombinant BDNF.
From the results, PG-003 showed the property which promotes the phosphorylation of TrkB receptor and the expression of NFAT-responsive reporter gene at the same level per molecule compared with recombinant BDNF.
The molecular weight of TrkB agonist peptide is approximately 5.1 kDa, which is approximately 2.5 times smaller than that of recombinant BDNF.

Applications Data

We asked Jiksak Bioengineering Inc. to evaluate the behavior of neurite bundle elongation using their proprietary technology, Nerve OrganoidTM, with BDNF or PG-003. As a result, when PG-003 was used, thicker and longer neurite bundles were formed.
