Acetyl tetrapeptide-2 is a bioactive peptide with anti-aging effect and has been reported used as a cosmetic ingredient[1].
N2-Acetyl-L-lysyl-L-alpha-aspartyl-L-valyl-L-tyrosine is most commonly used as a skin conditioner, by soothing and nourishing the skin through similar mechanisms as other peptides. It is done by compensating for hormone loss in the skin, especially collagen, providing somewhat of a plumping effect to the skin.
N2-Acetyl-L-lysyl-L-alpha-aspartyl-L-valyl-L-tyrosine is a biomimetic signaling peptide. It interacts with key receptors involved in the synthesis and organization of extracellular matrix components, such as collagen and elastin. By modulating cellular signaling cascades, N2-Acetyl-L-lysyl-L-alpha-aspartyl-L-valyl-L-tyrosine helps maintain the functional integrity of the skin's architecture, contributing to the appearance of improved skin resilience and firmness.
