摘要
The usefulness of 2,6-dimethylphenyltalanine (Dmp) as a Phe surrogate in two opioid peptides, dermorphin (DM) and deltorphin 11 (DT), was investigated. Compared to DM, [L-Dmp(3)]DM (1) showed a 170-fold increase in delta affinity and only a 4-fold increase in delta affinity, resulting in a 40-fold improvement in mu receptor selectivity. Compared to DT, [L-Dmp3]DT (3) showed a 22-fold increase in 8 affinity and somewhat of a loss in mu affinity, and consequently a marked (75-fold) improvement in 6 receptor selectivity. The D-Dmp replacement, however, resulted in a great loss in receptor selectivity in each of the peptides. The specific receptor interactions of 1 and 3 were confirmed by in vitro bioassays. Analogues 1 and 3 seem to be useful as pharmacological tools for the study of opioid systems. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
