Cholecystokinin (CCK) is a 33-amino acid peptide with multiple functions in both the central nervous system (via CCK-B receptors) and the periphery (via CCK-A receptors). CCK mediation of satiety via the A-receptor subtype suggest a role for CCK in the management of obesity. The carboxy terminal octapeptide (CCK-8) is fully active in this regard, but is lacking in receptor selectivity, metabolic stability, and oral bioavailability. Inversion of the chirality of Asp(7) in conjunction with N-methylation of Phe(8) produces compound 5 which exhibits high affinity and 2100-fold selectivity for CCK-A receptors. Compound 6 (Hpa(SO3H)-Me-Gly-Trp-Nle-MeAsp-Phe-NH2), derived from moving the N-methyl group from Phe to Asp, decreased CCK-B affinity substantially without affecting CCK-A affinity, giving a compound with 6600-fold selectivity for CCK-A receptors. These compounds inhibit food intake with nanomolar potency following intraperitoneal administration in fasted rats. In addition to greater potency, compound 6 produces weight loss in rats when administered over nine consecutive days. Intranasal administration of 6 potently inhibits feeding in beagle dogs. Compound 6 produces potent anorectic activity via the CCK-A receptor system.

Enzymes are versatile reagents for the efficient removal of methyl and benzyl protecting groups. An esterase from Bacillus subtilis (BS2) and a lipase from Candida antarctica (CAL-A) allow a mild and selective removal of these moieties in high yields without affecting other functional groups.
