Acetyl tetrapeptide-17 is a synthetic peptide composed of four amino acids with an acetylated N-terminus, designed for use in topical cosmetic formulations. Recognized for its role in supporting skin conditioning, this ingredient is valued in personal care products targeting the appearance and feel of the skin. Acetyl tetrapeptide-17 is suitable for integration into a wide range of skincare applications, including serums, creams, and eye care products.
Mechanism of Action (MOA)
Acetyl tetrapeptide-17 is a synthetic signal peptide designed to support the skin's extracellular matrix by modulating cellular communication pathways. It interacts with keratinocytes and fibroblasts, influencing the expression of key extracellular matrix proteins such as laminin and fibronectin. Through these biochemical interactions, acetyl tetrapeptide-17 contributes to maintaining the structural integrity of the skin and supports optimal cellular signaling involved in skin homeostasis.
Acetyl tetrapeptide-17 is suitable for inclusion in a variety of personal care and cosmetic formulations.
- Facial serums and creams- Eye contour products- Leave-on skin treatments- Sheet masks and hydrogel patches- Lightweight lotions and emulsions- Targeted care products for delicate skin areas
