SH-Oligopeptide-1 is a synthetic peptide corresponding to human epidermal growth factor (EGF), widely utilized in cosmetic formulations for its role in supporting skin conditioning. By promoting optimal skin appearance and texture, SH-Oligopeptide-1 is suitable for use in a range of personal care products targeting the improvement of skin smoothness and suppleness. This ingredient is compatible with global cosmetic regulations and can be incorporated into serums, creams, and other topical applications.
Mechanism of Action (MOA)
SH-Oligopeptide-1, a recombinant human epidermal growth factor (EGF) peptide, interacts with epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR) on the surface of skin cells. This binding initiates intracellular signaling cascades, including the MAPK/ERK and PI3K/AKT pathways, which are associated with cellular processes such as proliferation and differentiation. Through these biochemical interactions, SH-Oligopeptide-1 supports the maintenance of optimal skin cell function and homeostasis.
SH-Oligopeptide-1 can be incorporated into a variety of cosmetic formulations to enhance product performance.
- Suitable for use in facial serums and creams- Compatible with eye contour formulations- Can be added to sheet masks and hydrogel masks- Appropriate for inclusion in scalp and hair care products- May be used in post-procedure skincare preparations- Blendable with hydrating gels and emulsions
