Reduced peptide bond pseudopeptide analogues of secretin. A new class of secretin receptor antagonists.

چکیده
The ability to assess the importance of secretin in various physiological processes is limited by the lack of specific potent antagonists. Recently, reduced peptide bond (psi) analogues of bombesin or substance P in which the -CONH- bond is replaced by -CH2NH- are reported to be receptor antagonists. To attempt to develop a new class of secretin receptor antagonists, we have adopted a similar strategy with secretin and sequentially altered the eight NH2-terminal peptide bonds, the biological active portion of secretin. In guinea pig pancreatic acini, secretin caused a 75-fold increase in cyclic AMP (cAMP). Secretin inhibited 125I-secretin binding with a half-maximal effect at 7 nM. Each of the psi analogues inhibited 125I-secretin binding. [psi 4,5]Secretin was the most potent, causing the half-maximal inhibition at 4 microM, and was 2-fold more potent than the [psi 1,2]secretin; 7-fold more than [psi 3,4]secretin, [psi 5,6]secretin, and [psi 8,9]secretin; 9-fold more than [psi 7,8]secretin; 13-fold more potent [psi 6,7]secretin, and 17-fold more than [psi 2,3]secretin. Secretin caused a half-maximal increase in cAMP at 1 nM. At concentrations up to 10 microM, [psi 2,3]secretin, [psi 4,5]secretin, and [psi 8,9]secretin did not alter cAMP whereas [psi 1,2]secretin and [psi 6,7]secretin caused a detectable increase in cAMP at 10 nM, [psi 7,8]secretin at 300 nM, [psi 5,6]secretin at 1 microM, and [psi 3,4]secretin at 10 microM. The [psi 4,5], [psi 2,3], and [psi 8,9] analogues of secretin each inhibited 1 nM secretin-stimulated cAMP as well as [psi 3,4]secretin, which functioned as a partial agonist. [psi 4,5]Secretin was the most potent, causing half-maximal inhibition at 3 microM whereas [psi 8,9]secretin was 6-fold less potent, and [psi 2,3]secretin and [psi 3,4]secretin were 17-fold less potent. [psi 4,5]Secretin inhibited secretin-stimulated cAMP and binding of 125I-secretin in a competitive manner. [psi 4,5]Secretin did not interact with cholecystokinin, bombesin, calcitonin gene-related peptide, or cholinergic receptors but did interact with receptors for vasoactive intestinal peptide, causing half-maximal inhibition at 72 microM and thus had a 18-fold higher affinity for secretin than vasoactive intestinal peptide receptors. These results indicate that reduced peptide bond analogues of the NH2 terminus of secretin represent a new class of secretin receptor antagonists. It is likely that in the future even more potent members of this class can be developed which may be useful to investigate the role of secretin in various physiological processes.

Secretin, a peptide hormone of the gastrointestinal system, has been implicated in the etiology of autism. Our laboratory previously demonstrated the expression of secretin and its receptors in specific central neurons, and found for the first time that secretin is neuroactive in the cerebellum. We showed that bath application of secretin facilitated the release of GABA from terminals of basket...

The secretin receptor is prototypic of Class II GPCRs (G-protein-coupled receptors), based on its structural and functional characteristics and those of its natural agonist ligand. Secretin represents a linear 27-residue peptide with diffuse pharmacophoric domain. The secretin receptor includes the typical signature sequences for this receptor family within its predicted transmembrane segments ...
متن کاملMapping spatial approximations between the amino terminus of secretin and each of the extracellular loops of its receptor using cysteine trapping.
While it is evident that the carboxyl-terminal region of natural peptide ligands bind to the amino-terminal domain of class B GPCRs, how their biologically critical amino-terminal regions dock to the receptor is unclear. We utilize cysteine trapping to systematically explore spatial approximations among residues in the first five positions of secretin and in every position within the receptor e...

It recognizes several VIP-related peptides and displays a very low affinity for secretin despite >70% homology between VIP and secretin. Conversely, the human secretin receptor...
