PeptiGrowth’s proprietary technology offers a range of fully chemically synthesized (animal-component free) peptide growth factors for use in cell culture media as alternatives to conventional protein growth factors.
They possess the same capacities for receptor activation, cell proliferation and differentiation as conventional growth factors and recombinant proteins, but with greater cost effectiveness and ease of use, longer shelf-life, and no biological contaminants.
- GMP-grade products can be manufactured upon request
Product Summary
PG-004 is a synthetic peptide alternative to Noggin and possesses antagonistic activity against the BMP4 and BMP7 families. PG-004 can be used to maintain an undifferentiated state as well as induce differentiation in manufacturing of regenerative medicine and cell therapy products for various tissues such as pancreas, lung, and intestine.
Advantages of its use are numerous: 5 µg of PG-004 is equivalent to ~40 µg of recombinant Noggin due to difference in molecular weight. This line of PeptiGrowth ingredients offers uniformity that can improve efficiency and data reproducibility and thus reduce the cost of R&D and manufacturing.
