Results from this study3

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone3

In this study, Argireline (acetyl hexapeptide-8) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Argireline (acetyl hexapeptide-8).

    Summary
    Furthermore, in vivo tissue slice studies have shown that pExo carriers efficiently deliver acetyl hexapeptide-8 to the skin's dermis, surpassing the performance of free peptides.

    Summary · context
    To address this, a novel technique called NanoGlow has been introduced for encapsulating peptide-based cosmetic raw materials into engineered nanosized plant-derived exosomes (pExo) to achieve the goal of a healthier and more radiant skin state.

    In this study, Argireline (acetyl hexapeptide-8) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Argireline (acetyl hexapeptide-8).
