Peptide derivatives

摘要

The present invention relates to a pharmacologically active peptide hormone derivative in which the parent peptide hormone has been modified by introducing either a lipophilic substituent, W, in the N-terminal amino acid or a lipophilic substituent, Z, in the C-terminal amino acid of the parent peptide hormone or an analogue thereof, said lipophilic substituent having from 8 to 40 carbon atoms, has a protracted profile of action.
