  • ANTI-INFLAMMATORY PEPTIDES, PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION CONTAINING SUCH PEPTIDES, AND USES THEREOF
    Publication number: 20220324958
    Abstract: Various sequences of new peptides and derivatives with anti-inflammatory effects in various cellular models (chondrocytes osteoclasts, macrophages derived from THP-1, and neurons) in the context of stimulus-induced inflammation widely known in the literature for each model. The compounds were shown to be able to reverse the expression of molecules associated with the cell's inflammatory mechanism, in addition to inducing regenerative proteins and reducing pain markers. Accordingly, the claimed compounds of the present invention can be applied to degenerative diseases of an inflammatory nature including rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.
