SH-oligopeptide-5 ("sh" is the acronym for "synthetic and human") is a recombinant, synthetic, human oligopeptide. "Oligopeptide" generally refers to a linear peptide chain of up to 10 amino acids (usually alpha-amino acids) linked together by peptide bonds (amide bonds).

Note(s)This section has been translated automatically.
SH-oligopeptide-5 refers to the synthetic oligopeptide-5 produced by genetically manipulated E. coli strains using bioengineering technologies. The starter gene is an exact synthetic copy of the human gene coding for "ARS interacting multi-functional protein 1" (AIMP1). ARS-interacting multi-functional protein 1 is a cytokine involved in the regulation of angiogenesis, immune activation and proliferation of fibroblasts.
SH-oligopeptide-5 is used in cosmetic formulations. The peptide mixture acts as a skin protection agent (protects the skin from external influences).
