Four analogs of human beta-endorphin (beta h-EP) were synthesized by the solid-phase method: [Gln8,31]-beta h-EP(I), [Arg8,Gln31]-beta h-EP(II), [Ala8,Gln31]-beta h-EP (III), and [Val8, Gln31]-beta h-EP(IV). Radioreceptor binding assay with use of tritiated beta h-EP as primary ligand gave relative potencies as follows: beta h-EP, 100; I, 200;II, 150;III, 150;IV, 120. Relative potencies in an analgesic assay were: beta h-EP, 100; I,236;II, 254;III, 116;IV, 121. The side-chain of Glu-8 in beta h-EP can be replaced by a variety of structures without diminishing biological activity.
采用固相法合成了四种人β-内啡肽(βh-EP)类似物:[谷氨酰胺8,31]-βh-EP(I)、[精氨酸8,谷氨酰胺31]-βh-EP(II)、[丙氨酸8,谷氨酰胺31]-βh-EP(III)和[缬氨酸8,谷氨酰胺31]-βh-EP(IV)。以氚标记的βh-EP作为主要配体进行放射受体结合试验,得到的相对效价如下:βh-EP为100;I为200;II为150;III为150;IV为120。镇痛试验中的相对效价为:βh-EP为100;I为236;II为254;III为116;IV为121。βh-EP中谷氨酸-8的侧链可以被多种结构取代而不降低生物活性。
