Eleven Amino Acid Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists with Antidiabetic Activity
摘要:
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a 30 or 31 amino acid peptide hormone that contributes to the physiological regulation of glucose homeostasis and food intake. Herein, we report the discovery of a novel class of 11 amino acid GLP-1 receptor agonists. These peptides consist of a structurally optimized 9-mer, which is closely related to the N-terminal 9 amino acids of GLP-1, linked to a substituted C-terminal biphenylalanine (BIP) dipeptide. SAR studies resulted in 11-mer GLP-1R agonists with similar in vitro potency to the native 30-mer. Peptides 21 and 22 acutely reduced plasma glucose excursions and increased plasma insulin concentrations in a Mouse model of diabetes. These peptides also showed sustained exposures over several hours in mouse and dog models. The described 11-mer GLP-1 receptor agonists represent a new tool in further understanding GLP-1 receptor pharmacology that may lead to novel antidiabetic agents.

The present invention provides process useful for the preparation of intermediates which are useful in the preparation of amino acids useful in preparing peptide receptor modulators, for example agonists or partial agonists of such peptide receptors. Such peptide receptor modulators include, for example glucagon like peptide-1 receptor modulators which are useful for the amelioration of the diabetic condition.
The subject matter described herein provides novel human glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor modulators that have biological activity similar or superior to native GLP-1 peptide and thus are useful for the treatment or prevention of diseases or disorders associated with GLP activity. The described compounds include chemically modified peptides that may stimulate insulin secretion in type II diabetics, but also produce other beneficial insulinotropic responses. These synthetic peptide GLP-1 receptor modulators exhibit increased stability to proteolytic cleavage making them ideal therapeutic candidates for oral or parenteral administration. The disclosed and claimed peptides show desirable pharmacokinetic properties and desirable potency in efficacy models of diabetes.
The present invention provides novel pharmaceutical compositions comprising a human glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)-receptor modulator as an active ingredient in a sustained release formulation.
