PEPTIDE RENIN INHIBITORS CONTAINING STATINE OR DERIVATIVES THEREOF 0

摘要

A series of novel peptide and polypeptide derivatives containing statine or derivatives thereof (e.g., aminostatine, cyclostatine) are disclosed that are useful for inhibiting the angiotensinogen-cleaving action of the enzyme renin. Of particular interest are compounds possessing the N-terminal sequence -Pro-Phe-His-Sta-Lys with the terminal proline nitrogen bonded to an amino-protecting acyl moiety or compounds possessing the N-terminal sequence -R-Phe-His-Sta-Lys- wherein R represents an amino protecting acyl group.
