Conatokins-T, a 21-animo acid peptide which induces sleep-like symptoms in young mice was purified from the venom of the fish-hunting cone snail, Conus tulipa. The amino acid sequence of the peptide was determined and verified by chemical synthesis. The peptide has 4 residues of the modified amino acid, ycarboxyglutamate (Gla). The sequence of the peptide is: Gly-Glu-Gla-GIa-Tyr-Gln-Lys-Met-Leu-Gla-AsnLeu-Arg-Gla-Ala-Glu-Val-Lys-Lys-Asn-Ala-NHz. Conantokin-T inhibits N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-mediated calcium influx in central nervous system neurons. This observation suggests that like conantokin-G (a homologous Conus peptide with recently identified NMDA antagonist activity) conantokin-T has NMDA antagonist activity. A sequence comparison of conantokins-T and -G identifies the 4 GIa residues and the N-terminal dipeptide sequence as potential key elements for the biological activity of this peptide.

Conantokin-T. A gamma-carboxyglutamate containing peptide with N-methyl-d-aspartate antagonist activity

Conantokin-T (Con-T), which contains four Gla residues, is a 21-residue peptide isolated from C. tulipa venoms, sharing about 40% sequence homology with Con-G. Both Con-G and Con-T in-duce a sleeping effect in young mice but hyperactive behaviour in old mice when administered by intracranial injection.

  • Terlipressin

    Terlipressin is a synthetic triglycyllysine derivative of vasopressin with vasoconstrictive, antihemorrhagic, and antidiuretic properties. Upon intravenous administration, terlipressin, an inactive prodrug, is biotransformed to its active moiety, lysine vasopressin (LVP), a nonselective vasopressin analogue with affinity for vasopressin receptors V1 (V1a), V2 and V3 (V1b). As a V1 agonist, terlipressin increases systemic vascular resistance, particularly in the splanchnic area, resulting in a decrease of portal pressure. V1 binding also promotes platelet aggregation and glycogenolysis, while V3 binding induces adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secretion. Compared to vasopressin, terlipressin has a minimal effect on V2 receptors, which are responsible for promotion of water reabsorption in the collecting ducts of the kidney via stimulation of cyclic AMP production.

  • Gonadorelin Acetate

    Gonadorelin is a trophic peptide hormone responsible for the release of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) from the anterior pituitary. GnRH is synthesized and released from GnRH neurons within the hypothalamus. The peptide belongs to gonadotropin-releasing hormone family. It constitutes the initial step in the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis.

  • Deslorelin

    Deslorelin is a gonadotropin releasing hormone super-agonist (GnRH agonist) also known as an LHRH agonist. It stops the production of sex hormones (testosterone and oestrogen). It is currently approved for use in veterinary medicine and is used to induce ovulation in mares as part of the artificial insemination process. It is also used to stabilize high-risk pregnancies, mainly of livestock. Unlike other GnRH agonists, which are mainly used to inhibit luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone by their ultimate downregulation of the pituitary gland.

  • Terlipressin Acetate

    Terlipressin acetate is a vasopressin analogue with potent vasoactive properties. Terlipressin acetate is a highly selective vasopressin V1 receptor agonist that reduces the splanchnic blood flow and portal pressure and controls acute variceal bleeding. Terlipressin acetate exerts anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects. Terlipressin acetate has the potential for hepatorenal syndrome and norepinephrine-resistant septic shock research.
