SPACE peptide is a skin penetrating peptide (SPPs). SPACE peptide can enhance topical delivery of a macromolecule, hyaluronic acid[1][2][3].
SPACE peptide, when conjugates to cargoes such as small molecules and proteins, is able to facilitate their penetration across the stratum corneum into epidermis and dermis[2].
SPACE peptide also exhibits increased penetration into various cells including keratinocytes, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells, likely through a macropinocytosis pathway[2].
SPACE peptide enhances Cyclosporine A skin penetration, via a transcellular pathway, enhancing its partitioning into keratin-rich corneocytes through concurrent binding of SPACE with keratin and Cyclosporine A[3].
