Cell-Penetrating Peptides Selectively Cross the Blood-Brain Barrier In Vivo
Sofie Stalmans,Nathalie Bracke,Evelien Wynendaele,Bert Gevaert,Kathelijne Peremans,Christian Burvenich,Ingeborgh Polis,Bart De Spiegeleer +7 more
TL;DR: The observed BBB influx transport properties cannot be correlated with their cell-penetrating ability, and therefore, good CPP properties do not imply efficient brain influx.

Chemical-Functional Diversity in Cell-Penetrating Peptides
Sofie Stalmans,Evelien Wynendaele,Nathalie Bracke,Bert Gevaert,Matthias D'Hondt,Kathelijne Peremans,Christian Burvenich,Bart De Spiegeleer +7 more
TL;DR: The shape, structure complexity and the 3D-pattern of constituting atoms influence the cellular uptake capacity of peptides, besides typical well-known properties of CPPs, i.e. positive charge and amphipathicity.

Chemical Classification of Cyclic Depsipeptides.
TL;DR: This up-to-date CDP overview enables peptide and natural product scientists to study the wide diversity in CDP structures, their chemical interrelationships and identification of existing and newly found CDPs.

Fish Hydrolysates: A Regulatory Perspective of Bioactive Peptides.
TL;DR: The number of legally approved fish hydrolysate containing products drastically differs among different regions and calls for further international harmonization of the regulation and classification of these products.

Blood-brain barrier transport kinetics of the neuromedin peptides NMU, NMN, NMB and NT.
Bert Gevaert,Evelien Wynendaele,Sofie Stalmans,Nathalie Bracke,Matthias D'Hondt,Ilse Julia Smolders,Ann Van Eeckhaut,Bart De Spiegeleer +7 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that locally produced neuromedin peptides and/or fragments can be transported through the whole body, including passing the BBB, and taken up by different organs/tissues, supporting the idea that the neuromedins could have a much bigger role in the regulation of biological processes than currently assumed.
