medicine | BoNT-A can be administered subcutaneously or topically, in addition to the common application by intradermal and intramuscular injection, with a transdermal delivery peptide to reduce inflammation produced by activating nociceptors in the skin. Peptide-mediated delivery of BoNT-A is an easy and non-invasive way of administering the toxin that may prove to be useful in clinical practice, overview | Clostridium botulinum |

additional information | the short synthetic peptide TD-1 can facilitate effective transdermal delivery of BoNT-A through intact skin. Coadministration of TD-1 and BoNT-A to the hindpaw skin of Sprague-Dawley rats results in a significant reduction in plasma extravasation evoked by electrical stimulation, also but less in plasma extravasation evoked by capsaicin. Subcutaneous administration of BoNT-A also reduces vasodilation caused by saphenous nerve stimulation. BoNT-A does not interfere with substance P- and calcitonin gene-related peptide-induced vasodilation | Clostridium botulinum |
