Technical Terms C-type Natriuretic Peptide (CNP): A regulatory peptide that promotes endochondral bone growth by activating signalling pathways within the growth plate.

Bone growth occurs through the proliferation of specialized cells of the cartilage tissue, known as chondrocytes, on either end of a bone. This process requires the synthesis of extracellular matrix ...

This process requires the synthesis of extracellular matrix (ECM) in the bone growth plates. A peptide hormone, known as C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP ... Of particular interest in this entire ...

Achieving efficiency through commonalities Liquid-phase peptide synthesis (LPPS) is a particularly important synthesis method in the manufacturing of GnRH analogues, hosting numerous benefits.

Cephalosporin C was rediscovered in 1955 34 and structurally elucidated by chemical degradation studies 35 and X-ray crystallographic analysis in 1961. 36 Its first total synthesis was achieved by ...
