| Research Abstract |
A hexapeptide (AAP) isolated from bovine atria and identified as Gly-Pro-Hyp-Gly-Ala-Gly, showed a protective effect against several experimental thrombotic models in vivo via its inhibitory action on Ca, calmodulin- dependent phosphodiesterase (PDE). In order to increase this unique activity of A4P and to develop a new potent anti-thrombotic agent. 15 kinds of its analogues were synthesized and their activities were evaluated in Ca- induced arrhythmia in mice.
Among synthesized fragments of AAP, only Pro-Hyp-Gly-Ala-Gly (P-5) showed the same activity as AAP. Several chemical modifications were performed on a P-5 molecule. A 3-(4-hydrouphem-1) propionylation of the imino nitrogen of Pro in P-5 (corresponding to N-3-[4-hydroxypherxyilpropionyl] Pro-Hyp-Gly-Ala-Gly, termed as HP-5) led to strongly increased activity (approximately 10 times). Furthermore, the prolyl residue was more favorable than the hydroxyprolyl residue for the activity of HP-5.
Conclusively, N-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionyl Pro-Pro-Gly-Ala-Gly, termed as [Pro^2]HP-5. was the most suitable analogue for a candidate of antithrombotic agent, as shown from the present structure-activity relationship research.
