These interactions range from transient 'kiss-and-run' contacts supporting rapid lipid flux to stable anchors (90), which supports high-demand processes such as thermogenesis in brown adipocytes (91)
Because it degrades in blood in a pathway involving amino-peptidases, it may not be suitable for people who take medications that inhibit or are metabolized by peptidases (e.g., captopril, a treatment for hypertension).4 Also, based on what we know about other therapeutic peptides, we would say DSIP is contraindicated for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding as well as people with a personal history of cancer
And ongoing research continues revealing new applications for existing peptides and introducing entirely new sequences
