Abstract
Cyclic somatostatin analogues containing the modified retro sequence of the amino acids Phe7 to Phe11 of the natural compound have been found to exhibit high activity for cytoprotection of rat hepatocytes against cell poisons such as phallotoxins and galactosamine. Cyclo(-Phe(p-NH(1-14C)Ac)-Thr-Lys(CO(p-N3)C6H4)-Trp-Phe-d-Pro-), a photoreactive and radioactive analogue of one of the most active cyclohexapeptides, was synthesized by a combination of solid phase technique and classical solution peptide synthesis. This peptide labels the same proteins in rat liver cell membrane that are modified by photolysable derivatives of bile acids, phalloidin and antamanide.
