Targeted Peptides

Meaning

Targeted peptides are short chains of amino acids, synthesized either endogenously or pharmaceutically, that are designed or selected to interact with high specificity with a particular receptor, enzyme, or signaling pathway within the body. These molecules act as precise biological messengers, capable of modulating specific cellular functions, such as stimulating growth hormone release, promoting tissue repair, or regulating immune responses. Their clinical utility lies in their ability to deliver a highly specific therapeutic signal with minimal off-target effects.
