Single Administration of p2TA (AB103), a CD28 Antagonist Peptide, Prevents Inflammatory and Thrombotic Reactions and Protects against Gastrointestinal Injury in Total-Body Irradiated Mice
The goal of this study was to elucidate the action of the CD28 mimetic peptide p2TA (AB103) that attenuates an excessive inflammatory response in mitigating radiation-induced inflammatory injuries. BALB/c and A/J mice were divided into four groups: Control (C), Peptide (P; 5 mg/kg of p2TA peptide),...
