Abstract
Analogues of the δ opioid antagonist peptide TIPP (H-Tyr-Tic-Phe-Phe-OH; Tic = 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline3-carboxylic acid) containing various 4â²-[N-(alkyl or aralkyl)carboxamido]phenylalanine analogues in place of Tyr1 were synthesized. The compounds showed subnanomolar or low nanomolar δ opioid receptor binding affinity and various efficacy at the δ receptor (antagonism, partial agonism, full agonism) in the [35S]GTPγS binding assay. Two analogues, [1-Ncp1]TIPP (1-Ncp = 4â²-[N-(2-(naphthalene-1-yl)ethyl)carboxamido]phenylalanine) and [2-Ncp1]TIPP (2-Ncp = 4â²-[N-(2-(naphthalene-2-yl)ethyl)carboxamido]phenylalanine), were identified as potent and selective δ opioid agonists.
