In search of new selective antagonists and/or agonists for the human melanocortin receptor subtypes hMC1R to hMC5R to elucidate the specific biological roles of each GPCR, we modified the structures of the superagonist MT-II (Ac-Nle-c[Asp-His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Lys]-NH(2)) and the hMC3R/hMC4R antagonist SHU9119 (Ac-Nle-c[Asp-His-D-Nal(2')-Arg-Trp-Lys]-NH(2)) by replacing the His-d-Phe and His-d-Nal(2') fragments in MT-II and SHU9119, respectively, with Aba-Xxx (4-amino-1,2,4,5-tetrahydro-2-benzazepin-3-one-Xxx) dipeptidomimetics (Xxx=D-Phe/pCl-D-Phe/D-Nal(2')). Employment of the Aba mimetic yielded novel selective high affinity hMC3R and hMC3R/hMC5R antagonists.
为了寻找针对人类黑皮质素受体亚型hMC1R至hMC5R的新型选择性拮抗剂和/或激动剂,以阐明每种G蛋白偶联受体(GPCR)的特定生物学作用,我们通过分别用Aba-Xxx(4-氨基-1,2,4,5-四氢-2-苯并氮杂卓-3-酮-Xxx)二肽模拟物(Xxx = D-苯丙氨酸/pCl-D-苯丙氨酸/D-萘丙氨酸(2'))取代MT-II和SHU9119中的His-d-苯丙氨酸和His-d-萘丙氨酸(2')片段,对超级激动剂MT-II(Ac-Nle-c[Asp-His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Lys]-NH(2))和hMC3R/hMC4R拮抗剂SHU9119(Ac-Nle-c[Asp-His-D-Nal(2')-Arg-Trp-Lys]-NH(2))的结构进行了修饰。使用Aba模拟物产生了新型的选择性高亲和力hMC3R和hMC3R/hMC5R拮抗剂。
