- W2917241649 abstract "α-Conotoxin RgIA is a selective and potent competitive antagonist of rat α9α10 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR), but it is much less potent towards human α9α10 nAChR. Furthermore, RgIA is susceptible to proteolytic degradation due to containing four arginine residues. These disadvantages greatly limit its use for clinical applications. The purpose of this research was to identify critical stereocenters of RgIA and discover more stable analogues, enhancing its bioavailability by using the d-amino acid scan method. The activity of each variant was investigated against rat and human α9α10 nAChRs, which were expressed in Xenopus oocytes. Experimental assays showed that 14 out of 15 analogues had a substantial reduction in potency towards rat α9α10 nAChR. Noticeably, analogue 13 retained full biological activity compared with RgIA. Meanwhile, two other analogues, 14 and 15, of which l-Args were substituted with d-Args, exhibited a significantly increased potency towards human α9α10 nAChR, although these analogues showed decreased activities against rat α9α10 nAChR. Additionally, these three analogues exhibited a high resistance against enzymatic degradation in human serum and simulated intestinal fluid (SIF). Collectively, our findings suggest that a d-amino acid scan is a useful strategy for investigating how the side-chain chirality of amino acids affects the structure and function of peptides and may facilitate the development of more stable analogues to increase therapeutic potential." @default.
