Galanin (1-13)-spantide I is a chimeric peptide composed of the N-terminal fragment of galanin (amino acids 1-13) and spantide, a known substance P receptor antagonist.

Apelin biased agonist; exhibits bias for the G protein pathway. Stimulates endothelial NOS phosphorylation and expression, promotes proliferation, and attenuates apoptosis of human pulmonary arterial endothelial cells in vitro. Shows positive inotropic and vasodilatory effects in vivo and improves cardiac structure and function in a model of pulmonary arterial hypertension.

Activator of protein kinase C; attached to cell permeabilization Antennapedia domain vector peptide. Consists of peptide derived from the C2 domain of PKC β linked by a disulfide bridge to the Antennapedia domain vector peptide. The Antennapedia peptide is actively taken up by intact cells, at 4 or 37°C, ensuring rapid and effective uptake of the activator peptide. Once inside the cell, the disulfide bonds are subjected to reduction in the cytoplasm leading to release of the activator peptide.
