Thermo Fisher, J60481.MA, Calpeptin, ≥98%

Quantity: 10 mg Calpeptin is used to to inhibit the activities of cathepsin L and calpain-1. Calpeptin blocked the expression of aspartyl protease cathepsin D, amyloid precursor protein, and calparin. It acts as an inhibitor of the Ca2+-dependent protease, calpain. Prevents collagen- and thrombin-induced platelet aggregation, probably by blocking calpain induced phospholipase C and thromboxane synthase activation. Potent cathepsin L inhibitor. It is shown to preferentially inhibit a subset of protein-tyrosine phosphatases.
