摘要:
Cyclic peptides and their salts have antagonistic activity on endothelin receptors and antagonistic activity on NK2 receptors. The peptides have the formula ##STR1## wherein X and Y each represent .alpha.-amino acid residues, A represents a D-acidic-.alpha.-amino acid residue, B represents a neutral .alpha.-amino acid residue, C represents an L-.alpha.-amino acid residue and D represents a D-.alpha.-amino acid residue having an aromatic ring group; wherein hydroxy, thiol, amino, imino and carboxyl groups can be substituted or unsubstituted. Pharmaceutical compositions containing such peptides are also described.
摘要:
Cyclic pentapeptides having a &ggr;-turn and a &bgr;-turn wherein the cyclic pentapeptide has the following formula (I): Cyclo(—A1—A2—A3—A4—A5—) (I) wherein A1, A2, A3, A4 and A5 are amino acid residues; said pentapeptide having amino acid residues in positions 1-2-3 to form a &ggr;-turn, and amino acid residues in positions 3-4-5-1 to form a &bgr;-turn in combination with the &ggr;-turn; in which D-&agr;-amino acid residues are selected for A1, A3 and A5 and L-&agr;-amino acid residues are selected for A2 and A4 or wherein L-&agr;-amino acid residues are selected for A1, A3 and A5 and D-&agr;-amino acid residues are selected for A2 and A4; are provided. Compounds having &ggr;-turns and &bgr;-turns can be systhesized, regardless of the kinds of amino acid residues, and it is possible to synthesize compounds in which desired amino acid residues are introduced into sites of &bgr;-turn and &ggr;-turn based on their importance from the viewpoint of biological activity. The present invention is therefore available for design of compounds having biological activity.
