Description
RGD Trifluoroacetate is a tripeptide that effectively triggers cell adhesion, addresses certain cell lines and elicits specific cell responses; RGD Trifluoroacetate binds to integrins.RGD Trifluoroacetate is the most effective and most often employed peptide sequence for stimulated cell adhesion on synthetic surfaces. There are 24 integrins binding to ECM molecules in a RGD dependent manner: alpha3beta1, alpha5beta1, alpha8beta1, alphaIIbbeta3, alphavbeta1, alphavbeta3, alphavbeta5, alphavbeta6, alphavbeta8, and to some extent alpha2beta1 and alpha4beta1
