    Product Description

    Biotin tripeptide-1 is an extracellular matrix (ECM) peptide that has been conjugated to biotin (Item No. 22582).1 It stimulates the production of collagen IV and laminin in dermal and epidermal cells ex vivo. Biotin tripeptide-1 localizes to the peri-pilial zone of isolated cultured human hair follicles, induces proliferation of keratinocytes, and increases hair growth by 58 and 121% compared with control follicles when used at concentrations of 2 and 5 ppm, respectively.2 It also prevents decreases in the collagen IV and laminin 5 bands of isolated cultured hair follicles.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
