B7-33 (6mg) Peptide – Receptor-Grade Research Compound
B7-33 (6mg) is a synthetic peptide analog derived from the naturally occurring hormone relaxin-2, designed specifically for advanced cell signaling, inflammation, and fibrosis research. Developed to selectively activate the RXFP1 receptor, B7-33 has emerged as a valuable research compound due to its targeted receptor activity and reduced off-target effects when compared to full-length relaxin peptides.
At Core Peptide, our receptor-grade B7-33 (6mg) is manufactured to strict purity standards and supplied exclusively for laboratory and research use within the United States.
Background and Discovery of B7-33
Relaxin-2 is a naturally produced peptide hormone historically associated with reproductive biology, cardiovascular function, and connective tissue remodeling. Early research demonstrated that relaxin-2 could activate the relaxin family peptide receptor 1 (RXFP1), triggering intracellular signaling pathways involved in anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory responses.
However, the full relaxin-2 peptide also activates multiple downstream pathways, making it difficult for researchers to isolate specific signaling effects. To address this, researchers engineered B7-33, a truncated relaxin-2 analog designed to selectively stimulate RXFP1-mediated signaling while limiting activation of other pathways.
This targeted receptor activity has made B7-33 (6mg) an increasingly important peptide in mechanistic and translational research settings.
Mechanism of Action
B7-33 primarily exerts its research value through selective RXFP1 receptor activation. Upon receptor binding, researchers suggest B7-33 may initiate intracellular cascades involving:
-
cAMP signaling pathways
-
Nitric oxide (NO) modulation
-
Reduced pro-fibrotic gene expression
Unlike full-length relaxin-2, B7-33 appears to bias receptor signaling toward pathways associated with tissue protection and remodeling, making it especially useful in fibrosis and inflammation studies.
Research Applications of B7-33 (6mg)
B7-33 and Fibrosis Research
Fibrosis is characterized by excessive extracellular matrix deposition and tissue stiffening. Multiple preclinical investigations suggest that RXFP1 activation may downregulate fibrotic signaling pathways such as TGF-β.
Researchers studying cardiac, renal, pulmonary, and hepatic fibrosis have explored B7-33 peptide as a tool to better understand how selective relaxin receptor activation influences collagen turnover and tissue elasticity.
B7-33 and Inflammatory Signaling
Inflammation is closely linked to chronic tissue damage and disease progression. B7-33 has been investigated in research models for its potential ability to modulate inflammatory cytokine expression without triggering broad systemic hormonal responses.
This selective activity makes B7-33 (6mg) especially valuable in controlled laboratory experiments where signaling specificity is critical.
Cardiovascular and Vascular Research
RXFP1 receptors are expressed in vascular tissue. Studies suggest that relaxin-based signaling may influence vascular tone, endothelial function, and nitric oxide production.
B7-33’s receptor-biased activity allows researchers to examine these mechanisms with reduced interference from secondary hormonal effects, supporting its use in cardiovascular research models.

Comparison to Full-Length Relaxin-2
While full-length relaxin-2 peptides activate RXFP1, they may also trigger additional signaling cascades. B7-33 (6mg) was engineered to reduce this complexity, allowing researchers to:
-
Study receptor-biased signaling
-
Improve experimental specificity
-
Reduce variability in signaling outcomes
This makes B7-33 particularly useful in mechanistic research rather than systemic hormone modeling.
Storage and Handling (Research Use)
For optimal stability in laboratory settings:
-
Store lyophilized B7-33 at -20°C
-
Reconstitute using sterile laboratory-grade solvents
-
