Product Description:
Melittin is primarily known for its role as the main component of bee venom, where it contributes to the venom's cytotoxic and hemolytic effects. In medical research, melittin is being explored for its potential in cancer therapy due to its ability to disrupt cell membranes, leading to the destruction of cancer cells. It is also investigated for its antimicrobial properties, showing effectiveness against a variety of bacteria and viruses, which could lead to new treatments for infections. Additionally, melittin is studied in the context of drug delivery systems, where it can be used to enhance the penetration of therapeutic agents into cells. Its ability to modulate immune responses is another area of interest, potentially aiding in the development of treatments for autoimmune diseases and inflammation.
