Synthesis and biological activity in the GPI test of scyliorhinin I and its Val7 and Ile7 analogs.
Scyliorhinin I, a decapeptide, of tachykinin family, and its two analogs containing Val or Ile in position 7, have been synthesized using the solid-phase method, and tested for agonistic activity on isolated guinea pig ileum. Both analogs were slightly more active than scyliorhinin I, but they were significantly less potent than substance P.
