A peptide or peptide derivative comprising: n(i) WDLYFEIVW (SEQ ID NO: 1); or n(ii) a variant amino acid sequence comprising one, two, three or four L-amino acid substitutions in WDLYFEIVW (SEQ ID NO: 1); or n(iii) the retro-inverso variant of the peptide or peptide derivative of either one of parts (i) and (ii), nwherein said peptide or peptide derivative has procoagulant activity. n A peptide or peptide derivative comprising: n(i) an amino acid sequence comprising imfwydcye; or n(ii) a variant amino acid sequence comprising one, two, three, four, five or six amino acid substitutions in imfwydcye, nwherein said peptide or peptide derivative has procoagulant activity. |
