TRANSGENIC SILKWORM RH-OLIGOPEPTIDE-2

Skin Conditioning Cell-communicating ingredient

Science

Mechanism of Action

This oligopeptide functions as a cell-communicating agent, stimulating the division and growth of skin cells, which may facilitate wound healing and overall skin regeneration. Research suggests a synergistic action with Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF), potentially enhancing keratinocyte proliferation more effectively than either ingredient alone.

The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) has highlighted insufficient data for various silk protein ingredients, issuing an 'Insufficient Data Announcement' in 2015 for related compounds like MEA-Hydrolyzed Silk and Silkworm Cocoon Extract. A specific safety assessment, including maximum concentration levels, for TRANSGENIC SILKWORM RH-OLIGOPEPTIDE-2 or SH-Oligopeptide-2 as a distinct cosmetic ingredient is currently not available in public records.
