L-Carnosine is a dipeptide composed of beta-alanine and L-histidine that has been found in rat olfactory bulb, skeletal muscle, brain, kidney, and spleen tissues, as well as human skeletal muscle, and has diverse biological activities. It is a metal chelator that forms complexes with copper, cobalt, nickel, cadmium,...

Description: L-Carnosine (Karnozin) is is an antioxidant naturally found in skeletal muscle, brain tissue. It has the potential to suppress many of the biochemical changes that accompany aging. Target: Antioxidant, Endogenous Metabolite. Smiles: [C@@H](CC1=CN=CN1)(NC(CCN)=O)C(O)=O. References: Hipkiss AR, et al....

L-Carosine is a dipeptide found at millimolar concentration in brain, muscle and the lens of the eye. In model systems it is a potent antioxidant that scavenges oxygen free radicals and transition metal ions. It blocks protein-protein and protein-DNA cross-links induced by hypochlorite anions and toxic aldehydes...

Cosmetic peptides are degraded small-molecule collagen proteins, typically composed of amino acid groups or residues ranging from 2 to 10 amino acids, linked in a specific sequence by peptide bonds. Due to their ability to stimulate collagen synthesis, aid wound healing, smooth wrinkles, and possess antioxidant,...
