COMPOSITION CONTAINING FIBROBLAST GROWTH FACTOR-DERIVED PEPTIDE FRAGMENTS FOR WOUND HEALING OR INHIBITING SKIN WRINKLE FORMATION

摘要

Provided is a composition containing peptide fragments or small peptides derived from fibroblast growth factor (FGF) for wound healing or inhibiting aging of the skin or formation of skin wrinkles. The peptides activate FGF receptors to induce collagen synthesis and have activities promoting keratinocyte proliferation and angiogenesis in the skin. Accordingly, the peptides can be effectively utilized in wound healing and inhibiting aging of the skin or formation of skin wrinkles.
