Ac-SDKP (Thymosin Beta 4 Fragment (1–4), Goralatide) is an endogenous tetrapeptide derivative that is the N-acetylated derivative of the fragment composed of amino acids 1-4 derived from cleavage of the N-terminus of the signalling factor thymosin beta-4 by the enzyme prolyl oligopeptidase. It is a selective inhibitor of haematopoietic cell proliferation and has antiinflammatory, anti-fibrotic, and pro-angiogenic properties, with particular applications in preventing the development of kidney fibrosis and cardiac fibrosis following injury to these organs.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
