Bioactivity | COG 133 is a fragment of Apolipoprotein E (APOE) peptide. COG 133 competes with the ApoE holoprotein for binding the LDL receptor, with potent anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects. COG 133 is also a nAChR antagonist with an IC50 of 445 nM[1][2]. |
Target | IC50: 445 nM (nAChR) |
In Vivo | COG 133 (1 mg/kg; intratracheal administration; every other day; for 4 weeks) treatment impairs the resolution of pulmonary fibrosis in mice[3]. Animal Model: |
