 Detail Product Information
Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, widely recognized by the trade name Argireline, is a synthetic cosmetic peptide and the world's first anti-wrinkle hexapeptide with a Botox-like mechanism of action. Developed by Lipotec (Barcelona, Spain) and first introduced to the cosmetic industry in 2002, it has since become one of the most extensively studied and widely used neuropeptides in premium skincare formulations globally. Its INCI name is Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, and it is also known as Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 in earlier literature.
Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 is a six-amino-acid peptide with the sequence Ac-Glu-Glu-Met-Gln-Arg-Arg-NH2, featuring an N-terminal acetyl group and a C-terminal amidation. These structural modifications enhance enzymatic stability and skin penetration. The peptide functions by mimicking the N-terminal region of the SNAP-25 protein, a critical component of the SNARE complex that mediates vesicle fusion and neurotransmitter release at neuromuscular junctions. By competitively binding within the SNARE complex, it destabilizes the assembly required for acetylcholine release, thereby reducing facial muscle contractions that cause dynamic expression wrinkles.
Landmark clinical research published in the International Journal of Cosmetic Science (Blanes-Mira et al., 2002) demonstrated that a cream containing 10% Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 applied twice daily reduced wrinkle depth by up to 30% over 30 days, with significant improvements observed in the forehead and periocular areas. Unlike botulinum toxin, which requires injection and carries a risk of facial paralysis, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 offers a safe, non-invasive topical alternative with a toxic potential approximately 4,000 times lower. As a specialized API sourcing partner, Shenzhen Zhaoke Biotechnology Co., Ltd. provides high-purity Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 (CAS No.: 616204-22-9) with comprehensive analytical documentation for global cosmetic and pharmaceutical manufacturers.
