Клиническое исследование

Argireline is a synthetic oligopeptide that emulates the sequence of SNAP-25, a type of SNARE. It has significant skin permeation, interferes with the SNARE ternary complex, and has demonstrated interference with catecholamine release from chromaffin cells. Topical use of 10% argireline resulted in a reduced depth and roughness of periorbital wrinkles in 10 healthy women. One study on 14 volunteers showed that 5% argireline reduced periorbital wrinkles by 32% in 28 days. Most recently, argireline’s efficacy has been measured in 60 Chinese women from a randomized control trial. Its total efficacy was 48.9% compared to 0% in the placebo group, and resulted in significantly decreased wrinkle roughness.
