In the present study we have described the synthesis and some pharmacological properties of four new analogues of bradykinin (BK). Two peptides were designed by substitution of positions 7 and 8 of known B2 antagonists with N-methyl-D-phenylala

We discovered that majusculamide A (1) and majusculamide B (2), isolated from a marine cyanobacterium collected in Okinawa, induced osteoblast differentiation in MC3T3-E1 cells. Although majusculamide A (1) has a different configuration only at the C-19 stereocenter, bearing a methyl group, compared to majusculamide B (2), the effect of 1 was stronger than that of 2. We synthesized some analogues of the majusculamides (3-15) and evaluated osteogenic activities of these analogues. The structure-activity relationship study of majusculamide analogues suggested that the number of methyls and configuration at C-19 and the nature of the substituent at C-20 of majusculamide A (1) may be important for the osteoblast differentiation-inducing effect of 1.
Total syntheses of cathepsin D inhibitory izenamides A, B, and C and structural confirmation of izenamide B

The first total syntheses of izenamides A, B, and C, which are depsipeptides inhibitor of cathepsin D, were accomplished. In addition, the stereochemistry of izenamide B was confirmed by our syntheses. The key features of our synthetic route involve the avoidance of critical 2,5-diketopiperazine (DKP) formation and the minimization of epimerization during the coupling of amino acids for the target peptides.
