Abstract excerpt
We report the first study on short peptide structure-activity relationships (SAR) for the antiarrhythmic peptide AAP10 and its putative receptor. Synthetic improvements on the natural antiarrhythmic peptide AAPnat (H-Gly-Pro-Hyp-Gly-Ala-Gly) isolated from bovine atria led us to the synthesis of our lead molecule AAP10 (H-Gly-Ala-Gly-Hyp-Pro-Tyr-NH(2)) which reduces dispersion of epicardial potential duration and...
