DESIGN AND SYNTHESIS OF STRUCTURAL, STEREOISOMERIC AND CONFORMATIONALLY RESTRICTED ANALOGUES OF ALPHA-MELANOTROPIN: COMPARATIVE BIOLOGICAL PROPERTIES ON MELANOPHORES AND MELANOMA CELLS
Several chemically-modified analogues of α-melanotropin (α-MSH, Ac-Ser-Tyr-Ser-Met-Glu-His-Phe-Arg-Trp-Gly-Lys-Pro-Val-NH₂) were prepared by solid-phase peptide synthesis, including [Nle⁴]-α-MSH, Ac-[Nle⁴]-α-MSH₄₋₁₃-NH₂, Ac-[Nle⁴]-α-MSH₁₋₆-NH₂, Ac-α-MSH₇₋₁₀-NH₂, Ac-α-MSH₁₁₋₁₃-NH₂, Ac-[Nle⁴]-α-MSH(,4...
