Review on biological effects and mechanism of Ac-SDKP / 中华劳动卫生职业病杂志

ABSTRACT

N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline (Ac-SDKP) is an endogenous short peptide produced through the continuous hydrolysis of Thymosin β4 by meprin-α and prolyl oligopeptidase. It has the functions of immune regulation, promoting angiogenesis, tumorigenesis and anti-fibrosis in organs. In this paper, according to some our research results and related literatures in recent years, a review of Ac-SDKP research progress was written.
