Abstract:
In order to obtain glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1)analogs which can sustainedly control the levels of glucose, 12 derivatives were designed and synthesized by coupling monomethoxy polyethylene glycol(mPEG, with average molecular weights of 350, 550 and 750)to GLP-1 analogs. Preliminary pharmacological activities showed that all compounds retained GLP-1 receptor agonist activities, and the hypoglycemic activity of compound
I -
12 was similar to those of Ex-4 and Liraglutide, suggesting
I -
12 could be a potential long-acting GLP-1 receptor agonist.
