IRIS è il sistema di gestione integrata dei dati della ricerca (persone, progetti, pubblicazioni, attività) adottato dall'Università degli Studi di Cagliari dal mese di luglio 2015.
EnglishThe solid phase procedure, based on the Fmoc chemistry, was used to prepare some opioid deltorphin (H-Tyr-D-Ala-Phe-Asp-Val-Val-Gly-NH2, DEL C) and dermorphin (H-Tyr-D-Ala-Phe-Gly-Tyr-Pro-Ser-NH2, DER) analogues in which a D-glucopyranosyl moiety is beta-O-glycosidically linked to a Thr4 or Thr7 side chain. Their activities were determined in binding studies based on displacement of mu- and delta-receptor selective radiolabels from rat brain membrane synaptosomes, in guinea pig ileum and rabbit jejenum bioassays, and, in vivo, by a mouse tail-flick test after intracerebroventricular (icv) and subcutaneous (sc) administrations. The glyco analogues modified at position 4 displayed low opioid properties, while Thr7-glycosylated peptides retained high delta- or mu-selectivity and remarkable activity in vivo. In particular, as systemic antinociceptive agents, the latter glucoside-bearing compounds were more potent than the parent unglycosylated peptide counterparts, showing a high blood to brain rate of influx which may be due to the glucose transporter GLUT-1.
