Research Overview
P21 (also referenced as Peptide 021/P021) is a CNTF-derived peptidomimetic used as a tool compound to investigate neurotrophic and neurogenic mechanisms. In experimental systems it has been applied to probe BDNF-linked pathways, hippocampal neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity across in vitro and in vivo research models.
