Description buy FOXO4-DRI (Retro-Inverso) is a synthetic, slightly modified version of the standard FOXO4 protein. The modification prolongs half-life of the protein and allows it to interfere with normal FOXO4 function. It has been shown in research to prevent normal FOXO4 binding to p53. Thereby allowing for elimination of senescent cells, improved organ function, and younger tissue “biological age.” It impacts insulin signaling, cell cycle regulation, and oxidative stress signaling pathways. FOXO4 DRI peptide is a cell penetrating peptide shown to selectively induce apoptosis of senescent cells thereby reversing effects of aging in animal studies.
Biological Functions It is a cell-permeable peptide comprising part of the p53-interaction domain of FOXO4. It can compete with endogenous FOXO4 for p53, thereby disrupting the FOXO4-p53 interaction. Disrupting the p53-FOXO4 interaction causes p53 to be excluded from the nucleus and directed to mitochondria for induction of apoptosis in senescent cells, ultimately eliminating senescent fibroblasts through triggering apoptosis. It to be selective for ionizing radiation-induced senescent IMR90 cells and safe to normal cells.foxo4-dri cancer.
