Peptides are amino acids sequences and among the most potent biologically active substances found in nature. Peptides are used to control, trigger, and maintain physiological processes in living beings. However, the use of peptides as therapeutic agents has always been difficult because of their inherent instability and incapability to cross cellular membranes.
Peptides also entail the requirement of specific technology to tackle the extensive and challenging steps in their synthesis. Currently, there are more than 80 peptides marketed by various companies. These companies explore the probability of designing and engineering peptides that overcome their natural confines and allow these potent chemical entities to be used as therapeutic agents.
The analysts forecast the Global Peptide Therapeutics market to grow at a CAGR of 9.25 percent over the period 2013-2018.
