摘要:
A bifunctional hormone exhibiting an alpha-MSH activity and a natriuretic peptide activity is described. The bifunctional hormone comprises for example a first domain having alpha-MSH related hormonal activity covalently linked to a second domain having natriuretic peptide related hormonal activity. The bifunctional hormone of the present invention is useful for example for the prevention and/or treatment of renal related diseases or conditions, such as acute renal failure (ARF) or acute kidney injury (AKI).

摘要:
Peptide compounds derived from human melanotransferrin, and compositions thereof, are described. Uses of these peptide compounds, for example to modulate angiogenesis and/or cell migration, and/or to treat angiogenesis-related disorders (e.g., cancer), are also described.
摘要:
Growth Hormone-releasing Factor (GRF) analogs wherein lysine-21, leucine-22 and leucine-23 are deleted are described herein. These analogs retain GRF activity. The uses of said analogs for example as a GRF receptor agonist, e.g. to induce growth hormone secretion in a subject or biological system are also described.
摘要:
The present invention is concerned with modified biological peptides providing increased potency, prolonged activity and/or increased half-life thereof. The modification is made via coupling through an amide bond with at least one conformationally rigid substituent, either at the N-terminal of the peptide, the C-terminal of the peptide, on a free amino or carboxyl group along the peptide chain, or at a plurality of these sites. Those peptides exhibit clinical usefulness for example in treating states of insulin resistance associated with pathologies such as type II diabetes.
摘要:
The present invention relates to chimeric fatty body-GRF analogs with increased biological potency, their application as anabolic agents and in the diagnosis and treatment of growth hormone deficiencies. The chimeric fatty body-GRF analogs include a hydrophobic moiety (tail), and can be prepared, either by anchoring at least one hydrophobic tail to the GRF, in the chemical synthesis of GRF. The GRF analogs of the present invention are biodegradable, non-immunogenic and exhibit an improved anabolic potency with a reduced dosage and prolonged activity.
