Peptide-based therapies

Peptide-based therapies use small chains of amino acids, called peptides, to target specific cells or processes in the body. These peptides can mimic natural molecules, signaling cells to perform particular functions, such as reducing inflammation, promoting healing, or regulating hormones. They are designed to be precise, minimizing side effects often seen with broader drugs. Peptide therapies are used in areas like cancer treatment, skincare, and metabolic disorders, offering promising options for personalized medicine. Their targeted nature allows for effective intervention while maintaining a favorable safety profile.
