Palmitoyl tripeptide-5 and derivatives Several derivatives have been developed in the 2000s-2010s: Palmitoyl tripeptide-1 (Pal-GHK): combination of native GHK with a palmitic chain for improved topical penetration Palmitoyl tripeptide-5 (Pal-KVK): TGF- growth factor mimetic, documented as collagen inducer Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 (Pal-GQPR): studied for cutaneous anti-inflammatory effect These variants all exploit the same principle: short signal peptide + lipid chain for improved membrane penetration while preserving biological activity
