  • Patent number: 5093233
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of peptide hormone analogues as inhibitors of their respective naturally occurring peptide hormone. The structure of the peptide hormone analogues is exemplified by parathyroid hormone (PTH), wherein Lys.sup.13 is substituted to increase the biological activity of the PTH analogues. Thus, there are disclosed peptides having the formulae:PTH(7-34)NH.sub.2 ;[Tyr.sup.34 ]PTH(7-34)NH.sub.2 ;[D-Trp.sup.12, Tyr.sup.34 ]PTH(7-34)NH.sub.2 ;[Nle.sup.8,18, D-Trp.sup.12, Tyr.sup.34 ]PTH(7-34)NH.sub.2 ;[Nle.sup.8,18, Tyr.sup.34 ]PTH(7-34)NH.sub.2 ;desamino[Nle.sup.8,18, D-Trp.sup.12, Tyr.sup.34 ]PTH(7-34)NH.sub.2 ; and,desamino[Nle.sup.8,18, D-Trp.sup.12, Tyr.sup.34 ]PTH(8-34)NH.sub.2wherein Lys.sup.13 is modified in the epsilon-amino acid group by N,N-diisobutyl or 3-phenylpropanoyl.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5087561
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of peptide analogues as inhibitors of their respective naturally occurring peptides. The structure of the peptide hormone analogues is exemplified by human humoral hypercalcemic factor (hHCF), wherein Lys.sup.13 or Lys.sup.11 is modified on the epsilon-amino group by biotin so as to produce HCF analogues which can inhibit the action of HCF.
