| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
KRFK, a peptide derived from TSP-1, can activate TGF-β. KRFK promotes TGF-β-mediated signaling and its downstream role, independent of thrombospondin (TSP) receptors such as CD47 and CD36. KRFK can be used for chronic ocular surface inflammatory disorders reseach[1]. | [in vivo]
KRFK (5 μg/5 μL/eyes; single dose) significantly prevents the development of chronic ocular surface inflammation in TSP-1-/- mice[1].
