SNAP-8 10 mg
SNAP-8 (Acetyl Glutamyl Heptapeptide-3) is a synthetic octapeptide designed as an analog of the N-terminal end of SNAP-25. It competes with SNAP-25 for a position in the SNARE complex, disrupting vesicle fusion and neurotransmitter release, which in turn reduces muscle contractions associated with expression wrinkles.
