MELANOCORTIN DERIVATIVES FOR SPECIFIC BINDING OF MELANOCORTIN RECEPTOR 3, 4 OR 5

摘要

The invention provides novel peptides derived from the group of hormones including ACTH. These so-called melanocortins can target different receptors which often have different localizations on several tissues. The presently invented peptides are useful for targeting receptors in the nervous system in an agonistic manner. Pharmaceutical compositions and uses are also disclosed.
