Somatostatin mimics and synthetic methods therefor

摘要

Relatively small cyclic peptides that mimic the biological and/or chemical activity of larger cyclic peptide such as somatostatin, as well as synthetic methods therefor. In certain embodiments, cyclic peptides of the invention have structure: wherein RNP1 is H, an amine protecting group, or a solid support and RNP2 is H or an amine protecting group.
