Biochem/physiol Actions

Trofinetide is a more enzymatically stable analogue of the N-terminal tripeptide of IGF-1(GPE) that exhibits potent neuroprotective effects in varies animal models of neurodegenerative diseases and traumatic brain injury. Trofinetide treatment provides clinically meaningful improvement in Rett syndrome (RTT) and Fragile X syndrome (FXS).

The tripeptide glycine-proline-glutamate analogue NNZ-2566 (Neuren Pharmaceuticals) demonstrates neuroprotective efficacy in models of traumatic brain injury. In penetrating ballistic-like brain injury (PBBI), it significantly decreases injury-induced upregulation of inflammatory cytokines including TNF-α, IFN-γ, and IL-6. However, the mechanism by which
