Abstract: | A series of cyclic pseudopeptides were synthesized containing the sequence -Trp-Phe-(D)-PhePsiCH2NH-, the terminal ends of which were bound to 2-carboxy succinate or enantiomerically enriched tricarballylic acid to give the final cyclic structures. These two molecules and their subsequent derivatives were screened for h-NK2 receptor binding and functional antagonist activity on the rabbit urinary bladder. |
