Peptidic inhibitors of insulin-degrading enzyme with potential for dermatological applications discovered via phage display.

Peptidic inhibitors of insulin-degrading enzyme with potential for dermatological applications discovered via phage display.

Insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) is an atypical zinc-metalloendopeptidase that hydrolyzes insulin and other intermediate-sized peptide hormones, many of which are implicated in skin health and wound healing. Pharmacological inhibitors of IDE administered internally have been shown to slow the breakdow...
