摘要:
An isolated, synthetic or recombinant .chi.-conotoxin peptide comprising thefollowing sequence of amino acids: Xaa1 Xaa2 Gly Val Cys Cys Gly Tyr Lys LeuCys His Pro Cys SEQ ID NO. 3 where Xaa1 is a N-terminal Xaa1 is a N-terminalpyroglutamate (pGlu) or D-pyroglutamate (DpGlu) residue; and Xaa2 is Asn or adeletion; or such a sequence in which one or more Cys is replaced with itscorresponding D-amino acid and/or one or more amino acid residues other thanCys has undergone a side chain modification, or a salt, ester, amide orprodrug thereof. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositionscomprising these peptides and the use of these peptides in the prophylaxis ortreatment of conditions, such as but not limited to, pain, inflammation,incontinence, cardiovascular conditions and mood disorders.
