Abstract:
:[Glu34]-thymopoietin II fragment 32-45 and its three analogs were prepared by substitution of the amino acid residue at position 37. These peptides were synthesized by a conventional solution method, followed by deprotection with 1 M trifluoromethanesulfonic acid-thioanisole in trifluoroacetic acid in the presence of m-cresol. These peptides were tested for their effects on impaired T-cell transformation by phytohemagglutinin in the common variable immunodeficiency. The relative potency of the synthetic [Glu34]-thymopoietin II fragment 32-45 was one-half of that of synthetic thymopoietin II fragment 32-45. Among these tetradecapeptide analogs, one analog in which Val37 was replaced by Ile exhibited a potent activity which was more than that of the synthetic [Glu34]-thymopoietin II fragment 32-45. The relative potencies of Thr37 and Tyr37 analogs were one-third and one-half, respectively of that of the synthetic [Glu34]-thymopoietin II fragment 32-45.
