SNAP-8 (acetyl octapeptide-3) is a synthetic acetylated eight-amino-acid peptide, supplied as a lyophilized powder for in vitro laboratory research use only. It was developed as a topical cosmetic research ingredient and is described in the ingredient literature as an elongated analog of the acetyl hexapeptide (Argireline) family, designed as a mimetic of the N-terminal region of SNAP-25 within the SNARE complex. Note: SNAP-8 does not currently have dedicated peer-reviewed PubMed-indexed primary literature, so no references are listed below.
