Glypromate
Pharmaceutical compound
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Glypromate (Gly-Pro-Glu, GPE) is a tripeptide fragment derived from the N-terminus of the endogenous growth factor IGF-1. It has antiinflammatory and neuroprotective effects and is of interest in the treatment of neurological conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. The simple GPE peptide has poor blood-brain barrier penetration and is rapidly metabolised in the body, however a number of synthetic derivatives of GPE have been developed with improved properties.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]
