Introduction to Peptides - Single Course
.5 CME CREDITS – $35.00
The world of peptides therapy is a growing field in medicine ranging from improving skin care, growth hormone, to one’s immune system, to name a few. On PubMed there are over 2.5 million articles on peptides. It is estimated that humans have over 250,000 peptides and we only understand a fraction of them. Peptides are chains of amino acids linked together by a polypeptide bond. The formation of a polypeptide bond by a dehydration synthesis will be reviewed. The difference of a peptide versus a protein will be delineated. In addition the mechanism of action on how peptides work will be reviewed
