Parasporin-2-Derived Peptide Fragments: Characterization and Synergistic Anticancer Activity with Sacha Inchi and Curcumin
Collectively, these findings support the effectiveness of a substitution-based strategy in improving parasporin fragments and underscore the therapeutic potential of peptide T104L-G108W as a novel anticancer candidate. Furthermore, this study provides preliminary evidence that natural biomolecules can be optimized through targeted modifications and rational combinations, establishing a framework for the development of sustainable and selective therapeutic approaches in cancer treatment.
