Short tri- and tetrapeptides according to the following Formula I Ar(CH2)mX1—X2—CO—X3—X4—X5-(Trp)n-NX6R are potent, selective agonists of melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R). Provided herein are pharmaceutical compositions including Formula I peptide agonists of MC1R and methods of treating skin diseases and disorders that include administering to an individual in need thereof a therapeutic amount of a Formula I peptide. The peptides, pharmaceutical compositions, and methods described herein are useful in the treatment of diseases and disorders that benefit from agonism of MC1R, including melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, porphyria, polymorphous light eruption, vitiligo, and solar urticaria.
根据下式I的短三肽和四肽Ar(CH2)mX1-X2-CO-X3-X4-X5-(Trp)n-NX6R是黑色素皮质素1受体(MC1R)的强效选择性激动剂。本文提供了包括 MC1R 的式 I 多肽激动剂的药物组合物,以及治疗皮肤疾病和失调的方法,其中包括向有需要的个体施用治疗量的式 I 多肽。本文所述的肽、药物组合物和方法可用于治疗受益于MC1R激动的疾病和紊乱,包括黑色素瘤、基底细胞癌、鳞状细胞癌、卟啉症、多形性光糜烂、白癜风和日光性荨麻疹。
