Cyclization of linear sequences is a well recognized tool in opioid peptide chemistry for generating analogs with improved bioactivities. Cyclization can be achieved through various bridging bonds between peptide ends or side-chains. In our earlier paper we have reported the synthesis and biological activity of a cyclic peptide, Tyr-c[d-Lys-Phe-Phe-Asp]NH2 (1), which can be viewed as an analog of endomorphin-2 (EM-2, Tyr-Pro-Phe-Phe-NH2). Cyclization was achieved through an amide bond between side-chains of d-Lys and Asp residues. Here, to increase rigidity of the cyclic structure, we replaced d-Lys with cis- or trans-4-aminocyclohexyl-d-alanine (d-ACAla). Two sets of analogs incorporating either Tyr or Dmt (2′,6′-dimethyltyrosine) residues in position 1 were synthesized. In the binding studies the analog incorporating Dmt and trans-d-ACAla showed high affinity for both, μ- and δ-opioid receptors (MOR and DOR, respectively) and moderate affinity for the κ-opioid receptor (KOR), while analog with Dmt and cis-d-ACAla was exceptionally MOR-selective. Conformational analyses by NMR and molecular docking studies have been performed to investigate the molecular structural features responsible for the noteworthy MOR selectivity.

A convenient synthesis of indolin-2-ones substituted in the 3 position by an aminomethylene group bearing different amino acid moieties is described. Their antiproliferative activities were evaluated toward a panel of human solid tumor cell lines (PC 3, DLD-1, MCF-7, M4 Beu, A549, PA 1) and healthy cell lines (a murine fibroblast L929 and a human fibroblast primary culture).

Distinct differences in in vivo stability of the two diastereomeric C- Functionalized CyDTPA chelating agents, (CHX-A DTPA and CHX-B DTPA, both racemates), as recently reported prompted further investigation as to why differences in configuration produced striking effects on the in vivo stability of their yttrium complexes. To this end, the four individual component stereoisomers of CHX-A and CHX-B were synthesized and ability to bind yttrium was investigated both in vitro and in vivo.

Tyrosine-specific protein kinases that transfer the terminal phosphate from ATP to protein acceptors are associated with certain transforming viruses and cell surface growth factor receptors. Here we describe the synthesis and testing of potential multisubstrate inhibitors of this class of enzymes. The inhibitors were prepared by covalent attachment of the terminal phosphate of ATP or its tetraphosphate analogue to tyrosine mimics. Testing against p60(v-abl), the tyrosine kinase from the Abelson murine leukemia virus, showed that the series of inhibitors was moderately potent (IV50 values as low as 13 μM). However, structural modification of the tyrosine mimic, including replacement with a serine-like moiety, had little effect on potency. It is therefore concluded that the ATP moiety is largely responsible for binding and that the enzyme requires additional structural features for recognition of the tyrosine-containing substrate.
