Pharmacological characterization of the new stable antiarrhythmic peptide analog Ac-D-Tyr-D-Pro-D-Hyp-Gly-D-Ala-Gly-NH2 (ZP123): in vivo and in vitro studies.
Antiarrhythmic peptides (AAPs) are a group of compounds with antiarrhythmic properties; however, their use has been hampered by very low plasma stability. The aim of this study was to compare the in vitro and in vivo stability of our new stable AAP analog Ac-d-Tyr-d-Pro-d-Hyp-Gly-d-Ala-Gly-NH2 (ZP123) with the previously described AAP analog AAP10. Moreover, the effect of the two compounds was ...
متن کاملThe peptides acetyl-(Gly-3(S)Hyp-4(R)Hyp)10-NH2 and acetyl-(Gly-Pro-3(S)Hyp)10-NH2 do not form a collagen triple helix.
Hydroxylation of proline residues in the Yaa position of the Gly-Xaa-Yaa repeated sequence to 4(R)-hydroxyproline is essential for the formation of the collagen triple helix. A small number of 3(S)-hydroxyproline residues are present in most collagens in the Xaa position. Neither the structural nor a biological role is known for 3(S)-hydroxyproline. To characterize the structural role of 3(S)-h...
متن کاملOligopeptides with the sequences ala-pro-gly and gly-pro-gly as substrates or inhibitors for protocollagen proline hydroxylase.
Sequential oligopeptides prepared by condensation of peptides with the sequence Ala-Pro-Gly or Gly-Pro-Gly were examined as possible substrates or inhibitors for the synthesis of hydroxyproline by protocollagen proline hydroxylase. The tripeptide BOC-Ala-Pro-Gly-OMe (where BOC-represents 1-butoxycarboxyland Me represents methyl) was not hydroxylated, but oligopeptides ranging in size from BOC(A...
متن کاملVal-Gly-Val-Ala-Pro-Gly, a repeating peptide in elastin, is chemotactic for fibroblasts and monocytes
Recent studies have demonstrated that tropoelastin and elastin-derived peptides are chemotactic for fibroblasts and monocytes. To identify the chemotactic sites on elastin, we examined the chemotactic activity of Val-Gly-Val-Ala-Pro-Gly (VGVAPG), a repeating peptide in tropoelastin. We observed that VGVAPG was chemotactic for fibroblasts and monocytes, with optimal activity at approximately 10(...
متن کاملCentral activity of peptide Gly-Pro-Hyp--the main component of collagen degradation products mixture.
The effect of tripeptide Gly-Pro-Hyp on the central nervous system was studied. The peptide Gly-Pro-Hyp is a main component of the mixture of collagen type I degradation products obtained by 6-h digestion with bacterial collagenase. The investigated peptide in the doses 1 microgram, 2 micrograms, and 5 micrograms significantly reduces the psychomotor activity of animals, intensifies haloperidol...
