Weight‐reducing, lipid‐lowering and antidiabetic activities of a novel arginine vasopressin analogue acting at the V1a and V1b receptors in high‐fat‐fed mice

Abstract: Aim To assess the beneficial metabolic effects of the nonapeptide hormone, arginine vasopressin (AVP), on metabolism. Materials and Methods We exchanged amino acids at position 3 and 8 of AVP, namely phenylalanine and arginine, with those of oxytocin, to generate novel analogues with altered receptor selectivity. Secondary modification by N‐terminal acetylation was used to impart stability to circulating endopeptidases. Analogues were screened for degradation, bioactivity in rodent/human clonal beta cells and … Show more

“…Ac3IV (Ac-CYIQNCPRG-NH 2 ), a novel enzymatically stable vasopressin analogue with introduction on an N-acetyl group, substitution of F 3 for I 3 and a disulphide bridge between the two cysteines at position 1 and 6 [ 5 ], was obtained from Synpeptide Co. Ltd. (Shanghai, China) at 95% purity. Additional peptide characterisation relating to confirmation of purity and identity was conducted in-house by HPLC and MALDI–ToF MS, as described previously [ 18 ].…”

“…Whilst V2 receptors are responsible for regulating fluid balance and osmolality [ 4 ], V1a and V1b receptors are expressed in metabolically active tissues such as the pancreas [ 3 ]. Indeed, a recently characterised enzymatically stable and long-acting AVP analogue, namely Ac3IV, that acts exclusively at V1a and V1b receptors, possesses notable exciting therapeutic potential for diabetes [ 5 ].…”
