摘要 |
<p>The present invention provides novel peptides. These peptides are useful as renin inhibitors and have a novel cyclic tripeptide of formula (I) at the N-terminus. Some of these peptides also have a non-cleavable transition state insert corresponding to the 10,11-position of the renin substrate (angiotensinogen). Renin inhibitors are useful for the diagnosis and control of renin-dependent hypertension, congestive heart failure, renin-dependent hyperaldosterism, other renin-dependent cardiovascular disorders and ocular disorders. These peptides are also useful as inhibitors of HIV-I protease. Inhibitors of HIV-I protease are useful for treating humain acquired immunodeficiency disease syndrome (AIDS).</p> |
