GRGDSP (TFA) is an integrin inhibitor. This synthetic linear RGD peptide can inhibit the adherence of tumor cells to endothelial cells of blood vessels, thereby limiting metastasis. It is also utilized to modify the surface of cardiovascular implants, such as vascular grafts, to promote endothelialization, and is widely employed in integrin research as a soluble integrin-blocking RGD-based peptide.
