SNAP-8 (Acetyl Octapeptide-3) is a synthetic octapeptide designed as an N-terminal extension of the SNAP-25 protein substrate. It acts as a competitive inhibitor of neurotransmitter release in vitro by modulating SNARE complex formation, which is involved in the regulation of facial muscle contractions.

Preclinical research has focused on its potential role in neurotransmission studies, muscle relaxation models, and cosmetic peptide investigations relating to the reduction of dynamic wrinkles.

Research Applications:

Investigative applications of SNAP-8 may include:

Inhibition of SNARE complex formation in neurotransmitter release studies

Evaluation of neuromodulatory effects in muscle contraction models

Research into peptide-based cosmetic and dermatological applications

Study of protein-protein interactions in neurobiology
