title: Synthesis of an analog of human calcitonin gene related peptide, [Asu]-h-CGRP.
abstract: The analog of h-CGRP, des-Ala-deamino-dicarba-h-CGRP, was synthesized by the combination of the conventional solution and the solid phase peptide synthesis methods. This analog showed stronger and longer-lasting hypocalcemic and hypophosphatemic activities than the natural hormone.
