Lipopeptide is a polypeptide composed of hydrophilic peptide bonds and lipophilic fatty chains, with multiple functions and effects:

Biosurfactant: Lipopeptides such as palmitoyl hexapeptide have good surface activity and can increase the effect of biosurfactants.

Increasing urokinase activity: Experimental studies have shown that lipopeptides can increase the activity of urokinase and prevent coagulation.

Chemotaxis: Lipopeptides have chemotaxis and can promote the migration and proliferation of dermal fibroblasts and the synthesis of matrix macromolecules (such as elastin, collagen, etc.), thereby enhancing the skin's repair ability.

Wound repair and tissue regeneration: Lipopeptides can induce fibroblasts and monocytes to specific parts to achieve wound repair and tissue regeneration.

Activating enzyme system: Lipopeptides can activate relevant enzyme systems in the body, promote the permeability of intermediate metabolic membranes, and ultimately produce specific physiological effects.

Antimicrobial activity: Lipopeptides are an important class of antimicrobial peptides, mainly derived from metabolites secreted by bacteria, yeast, and fungi, and have antimicrobial activity, especially against certain fungi such as iturin.

Amphiphilic structure: Due to the special chemical composition and amphiphilic molecular structure, lipopeptides have the characteristics of biosurfactants in addition to antimicrobial activity.
