IKVAVC is a derivative peptide of IKVAV with an artificially added cysteine (Cys) at its C-terminus. IKVAVC retains all the biological activities of the original IKVAV, mainly acting as a neural adhesion/differentiation signaling peptide, and is equipped with an engineered linker arm that enables covalent conjugation to molecular materials. IKVAV inhibits the migration and activation of fibroblasts, downregulates the TGF-beta1 signaling pathway and endoplasmic reticulum stress, and promotes nerve repair. IKVAV regulates the phenotype of macrophages, shifting them from the pro-inflammatory M1 type to the pro-reparative M2 type[1][2][3].
