How Are Therapeutic Peptide Stability, Selectivity, Delivery, and Manufacturing Evaluated? (Technical Review)

Therapeutic peptide development requires rigorous evaluation of stability, selectivity, delivery, and manufacturing. This review details the scientific approaches used to assess these properties, distinguishing between approved medicines and research-use products. We examine analytical, biochemical, and technological strategies, highlight advances and limitations, and clarify the boundaries between research findings and clinical application.

What are peptides, and how are they different from proteins?

Peptides are short chains of amino acids, typically containing 2–50 residues, while proteins are longer, often with complex three-dimensional structures. Both play crucial roles in biological signaling, but peptides’ smaller size gives them unique properties and research applications. Peptide research is foundational for understanding biology and drug development, but does not establish safety or efficacy for consumer products without rigorous clinical trials.
