STABILIZED EXENDIN-4 COMPOUNDS

摘要

The present invention disclosed compositions comprising a stabilized Exendin -4 (1-39) and related compounds. The invention describes stabilized Exendin-4 agonists that include at least one modified amino acid residue particularly at positions Gln 13, Met14, Trp25, or Asn28 of the Exendin-4 (1-39) molecule. Disclosed are preferred modifications of deaminated, hydrolyzed, oxidized, o r isomerized reaction products of the specified amino acid residues corresponding to the same positions in the Exendin-4 molecule. The invention also relates to methods of making and using the stabilized Exendin compounds , such as for the treatment of diabetes.
