| Name | Nonapeptide P2 or AF-2 | |
| Length | 9 | |
| N-Terminal Modification | Free | |
| C-Terminal Modification | Free | |
| Linear/ Cyclic | Linear | |
| Chirality | L | |
| Chemical Modification | None | |
| Origin of Peptide | Corresponds to the 246-254 sequence of lipocortin I | |
| Nature of Peptide/Cargo | Showed an anti-inflammatory effect in carrageenan-induced rat paw oedema, they inhibit pancreatic and Naja naja PLA2 in vitro and acute inflammatory processes induced by carrageenan or phorbol esters when administered locally or parenterally. | |
| Mechanism | The anti-inflammatory effects of AF-2 in the TPA model suggest that this nonapeptide could affect arachidonic acid mobilization and/or arachidonic acid metabolism by 5-lipoxygenase. | |
