References

The Arg2 and 2‐Nal3 side chains of FC131 interact with residues in TM‐3 (His113, Asp171) and TM‐5 (hydrophobic pocket) respectively. Arg1 forms charge‐charge interactions with Asp187 in ECL‐2, while D‐Tyr5 points to the extracellular side of CXCR4. Furthermore, the backbone of FC131 interacts with the chemokine receptor‐conserved Glu288 via two water molecules. Intriguingly, Tyr116 and Glu288 form a H‐bond in CXCR4 crystal structures and mutation of either residue to Ala abolishes CXCR4 activity.

Determination of the binding mode for the cyclopentapeptide CXCR4 antagonist FC131 using a dual approach of ligand modifications and receptor mutagenesis

Previously, we developed a highly potent CXC chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) antagonist, FC131 [cyclo(-d-Tyr1-Arg2-Arg3-Nal4-Gly5-)], from a library of cyclic pentapeptides consisting of pharmacophore residues of the polyphemusin-II-derived anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) peptide T140. Since this novel scaffold for CXCR4 antagonists was identified, a series of cyclic peptides and peptidomimetics have been designed for potential anti-HIV and antimetastatic agents.

  • Angiotensin II

    Angiotensin II human (Angiotensin II) is a vasoconstrictor that mainly acts on the AT1 receptor. Angiotensin II human stimulates sympathetic nervous stimulation, increases aldosterone biosynthesis and renal actions. Angiotensin II human induces growth of vascular smooth muscle cells, increases collagen type I and III synthesis in fibroblasts, leading to thickening of the vascular wall and myocardium, and fibrosis. Angiotensin II human also induces apoptosis.

  • Teriparatide Acetate

    Teriparatide(recombinant human parathyroid hormone) /PTH (1-34) (human) corresponds to the N-terminal part of human parathyroid hormone, a peptide consisting of 84 amino acids.

  • GLP-1 (7-36) amide Acetate

    Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin derived from the transcription product of the proglucagon gene. The major source of GLP-1 in the body is the intestinal L cell that secretes GLP-1 as a gut hormone. Its physiological functions include promoting insulin sensitivity, decreasing food intake by increasing satiety in brain and increasing insulin secretion from the pancreas in a glucose-dependent manner.

  • 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.

  • Somatostatin

    Somatostatin is a tetradecapeptide which can suppress the growth hormone (GH) secretion and control the pituitary hormone secretion in human CNS.

    Inquiry
  • Lanreotide Acetate

    Lanreotide is a a synthetic cyclic octapeptide analogue of somatostatin. Lanreotide inhibits the secretion of growth hormone (GH) by binding to pituitary somatostatin receptors, and may inhibit the release of various other hormones, including thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and the gastroenteropancreatic hormones insulin, glucagon and gastrin.

  • Liraglutide

    Liraglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist used clinically to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus.

    Inquiry
  • Pramlintide

    Pramlintide is an analogue of amylin, a small peptide hormone that is released into the bloodstream by the β-cells of the pancreas along with insulin, after a meal. Like insulin, amylin is completely absent in individuals with Type I diabetes.

    Inquiry
  • Carbetocin

    Carbetocin is a long-acting synthetic agonist analogue of human oxytocin, with antihemorrhagic and uterotonic activities. Upon administration, carbetocin targets, binds to and activates peripheral oxytocin receptors that are present on the smooth musculature of the uterus. This causes uterus contractions and prevents excessive bleeding after childbirth, particularly following Cesarean section, and may be used to decrease blood loss during hysteroscopic myomectomy.

  • Protirelin

    Protirelin is a highly conserved neuropeptide that exerts the hormonal control of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels as well as neuromodulatory functions.
