摘要:
The present invention provides a novel peptide-type compound which induces secretion of growth hormone and which has the activity of increasing the intracellular calcium ion concentration, wherein at least one amino acid is replaced by a modified amino acid and/or a non-amino acid compound, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
摘要:
A medical component comprising a human parathyroid hormone peptide or its derivative, and acetic acid contained at a concentration less than its chemical equivalent with respect to the human parathyroid hormone peptide or to its derivative. Since in the medical component acetic acid, which is present as a salt of or attached to the peptide or its derivative, has been reduced to an amount less than chemical equivalent with respect to the human parathyroid hormone peptide or its derivative, a medical component, which is highly stable and will ensure an excellent use feeling when introduced into a pharmaceutical composition, is obtained.
摘要:
Particles are provided that are not rapidly cleared from the blood stream by the macrophages of the reticuloendothelial system, and that can be modified to achieve variable release rates or to target specific cells or organs. The particles have a core of a multiblock copolymer formed by covalently linking a multifunctional compound with one or more hydrophobic polymers and one or more hydrophilic polymers, and contain a biologically active material. The terminal hydroxyl group of the poly(alkylene glycol) can be used to covalently attach onto the surface of the particles biologically active molecules, including antibodies targeted to specific cells or organs, or molecules affecting the charge, lipophilicity or hydrophilicity of the particle. The surface of the particle can also be modified by attaching biodegradable polymers of the same structure as those forming the core of the particles. The typical size of the particles is between 180 nm and 10,000 nm, preferably between 180 nm and 240 nm, although microparticles can also be formed as described herein. The particles can include magnetic particles or radiopaque materials for diagnostic imaging, biologically active molecules to be delivered to a site, or compounds for targeting the particles. The particles have a prolonged half-life in the blood compared to particles not containing poly(alkylene glycol) moieties on the surface.

It is provided a pharmaceutical composition stably containing ghrelin or its derivative, which is an endogenous growth hormone secretagogue (GHS) to a growth hormone secretagogue-receptor (GHS-R), comprising a aqueous solution containing the ghrelins having pH range of 2 to 7, wherein the aqueous solution having pH range of 2 to 7 is a buffer solution, especially, glycine hydrochloride buffer, acetate buffer, citrate buffer, lactate buffer, phosphate buffer, citric acid-phosphate buffer, phosphate-acetate-borate buffer or phthalate buffer, and the concentration of the ghrelins in the solution is from 0.03 nmol/mL to 6 μmol/mL.
摘要:
The present invention is a method for producing a peptide or a protein in which a side chain contains a modified amino acid residue, which comprises chemically producing a peptide fragment containing an amino acid residue having a modified side chain using an weak acid-cleavable resin, producing a peptide fragment containing no amino acid residue having a modified side chain using a genetic recombination method or/and an enzymatic method, and condensing the resulting two kinds of peptide fragments and, according to the present invention, a peptide or a protein containing modification such as acylation, glycosylation and phosphorylation can be obtained effectively and at high quality.
摘要:
A pharmaceutical composition for nasal administration exhibits an improved bioavailability of a biologically active polypeptide, the active ingredient of the pharmaceutical composition. Specifically, the composition is prepared by uniformly dispersing and embedding a biologically active acidic polypeptide having an isoelectric point of 7 or lower on the surfaces of a polyvalent metal compound carrier with the help of an additive capable of dispersing and embedding the polypeptide on the surfaces of the carrier. The polyvalent metal compound carrier is a metal compound with a valent of 2 or higher that is either insoluble or little soluble in water, examples being aluminum compounds, calcium compounds, magnesium compounds, silicone compounds, iron compounds, and zinc compounds.
