    摘要: The present invention relates to novel peptides that are potent cytokine restraining agents. In addition, the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a cytokine restraining agent. Administration of such a cytokine restraining agent to a subject restrains, but does not necessarily suppress, cytokine activity completely. Thus, the present invention provides a method of restraining pathologically elevated cytokine activity in a subject. The invention also provides methods of treating disuse deconditioning and diseases mediated by nitric oxide and cytokines, such as diabetes and glomerulonephritis, a method of organ protection, a method of organ protection, and a method of reducing the negative side effects of cancer chemotherapy, such as nephrotoxicity.

    摘要: The invention provides ligands for melanocortin receptors. For example, the invention provides the melanocortin receptor peptide ligand Ac-Nlc-Gln-His-(p(I)-D-Phe)-Arg-(D-Trp)-Cly-NH2, (SEQ ID NO: 1), where the iodo group is unlabeled or radioactively labeled. The invention additionally provides methods of assaying for melanocortin receptors in a cell or tissue such as brain. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a melanocortin receptor ligand and to methods of administering the pharmaceutical composition to a subject. The invention further provides tetrapeptide ligands for melanocortin receptors and methods of altering melanocortin receptor activity.

    摘要: The present invention provides novel opioid peptides. Disclosed are opioid peptides having the general structures Ac-Phe-Arg-Trp-Trp-Tyr-Xaa-NH.sub.2 (SEQ ID NO. 1); Ac-Arg-Trp-Ile-Gly-Trp-Xaa-NH.sub.2 (SEQ ID NO. 2); Trp-Trp-Pro-Lys-His-Xaa-NH.sub.2 (SEQ ID NO. 3); and shorter versions of the latter, namely, Trp-Trp-Pro-Xaa-NH.sub.2 (SEQ ID NO. 4); Tyr-Pro-Phe-Gly-Phe-Xaa-NH.sub.2 (SEQ ID NO. 5); (D)Ile-(D)Met-(D)Ser-(D)Trp-(D)Trp-Gly.sub.n -Xaa-NH.sub.2 (SEQ ID NO. 6); and (D)Ile-(D)Met-(D)Thr-(D)Trp-Gly-Xaa-NH.sub.2 (SEQ ID NO. 7). Within each genus, Xaa is substituted by a specific amino acid. The invention also relates to an opioid peptide having the general structure Tyr-A1-B2-C3-NH.sub.2 (SEQ ID NO. 214), wherein A is D-Nve or D-Nle, B is Gly, Phe, or Trp, and C is Trp or Nap. Also included within the invention are opioid peptides of the general structure Me.sub.x H.sub.y N-Tyr-Tyr-Phe.sub.m -Pro.sub.n -NH.sub.2 (SEQ ID NO. 221) which are peptides modified by permethylation, perallylation, perethylation, perbenzylation and/or pernaphthylation and which can be further modified by reduction.
