Abstract
Several glycopeptides structurally related to muramyl dipeptide (MDP) have been synthesized and evaluated for their ability to stimulate the non-specific resistance of hamsters against L. donovani infection. These compounds have been named CDRI compounds. The synthetic procedure used for compounds 86/448 and 84/212 is described. MDP and its synthetic congeners were administered as immunostimulants at a prophylactic dose of 3 mg/kg at two weeks interval. The challenge infection (1 x 10(7) amastigotes i.c./hamster) was given in between two doses of the compounds. One of the glycopeptides, CDRI comp. 86/448, has been found to be significantly more potent than MDP, effecting 92% inhibition of the challenge dose, whereas MDP produced only 26.5% inhibition. The effect of comp. 86/448 lasted until day 7 of challenge. The efficacy of sodium stibogluconate was appreciably improved in hamsters treated with comp. 86/448.

Abstract
Five muramyl dipeptide analogues synthesized by derivatization of gamma-carboxyl of D-isoglutamine residue of MDP into alkyl amides or incorporation of lysine residue at the site via epsilon-NH2 function were evaluated for immuno-adjuvant activity. Derivatization of gamma-carboxyl of D-isoglutamine into butyl, octyl and dibutyl residues stimulated delayed type of hypersensitivity (DTH) response, the maximum stimulation being observed with octyl amide. Introduction of lauryl amide residue abolished DTH response. The antibody response was impaired with all the alkyl amide analogues except for the lysyl amide derivative with which the response was higher than MDP. Correlation was observed between DTH response and macrophage migration.

Abstract
Synthetic analogues of CCK-4 in which Trp was replaced by D-Pro (peptide I), Thz (peptide II) and delta Pro (peptide III) have been studied for their insulin and glucagon releasing activities from the islets of Langerhans in vitro. Peptide I has been found to be the most potent insulin releaser among the three analogues and its activity is comparable to that of CCK-4. Unlike CCK-4, its three analogues (peptides I-III) do not stimulate the release of glucagon with basal concentration of glucose in the medium. However, with increasing glucose concentration, all the three analogues potentiate the glucose stimulus for insulin release.

Abstract
Opioid activity of a homologous series of met-enkephalin alkylamides was analysed. In guinea pig ileum test, the hexylamide derivative was most active, whereas the isopropylamide derivative was most potent in analgesia test. The results suggest that structural changes of this type at the C-terminus of the pentapeptide improve the opioid activity.

Abstract
The biologic activities of three synthetic analogues of CCK-4 (Trp-Met-Asp-Phe-NH2) in which (i) the C-terminal residue Phe was N-methylated (peptide I); (ii) the C-terminal Phe residue was N-methylated and Ser is substituted for Met in position 2 (peptide II); (iii) Pro was substituted for Trp in position 1 and the C-terminal amino nitrogen was methylated (peptide III), have been described. Peptides I and II have been found to inhibit the release of both insulin and glucagon, while peptide III was found to be a potent releasing agent for insulin and an inhibitor for glucagon.

Abstract
Six enkephalin analogues (N-substituted amides and imides of [D-Ala2, Met5]-enkephalin) were synthesized and tested for opioid activity. All the compounds, except one i.e., compound IV, showed analgesic activity which was much higher than Met-enkephalin and morphine in mice and inhibited electrically induced contractions of isolated guineapig ileum, [D-Ala2, Met5]-enkephalin-morpholide and [D-Ala2, Met5]-enkephalin-beta-Ala-amide were the most potent analgesics and nearly 6 and 500 times as active as morphine and Met-enkephalin respectively. Both the compounds were equipotent on the guineapig ileum preparation, whereas the beta-Ala-amide was about twice as active as the morpholide in the electrically stimulated mouse vas deferens preparation.

Abstract
Two synthetic analogs of CCK-4, Glp-Met-Asp-Phe-NH2 (I) and Pro-Met-Asp-Phe-NH2 (II) reported earlier to stimulate insulin release from the isolated rat pancreatic islets in vitro at concentrations as low as 10(-10) M, have now been found to be totally ineffective as glucagon releasers at concentrations as high as 10(-6) M or higher. It is evident that the replacement of Trp in CCK-4 by Glp and Pro residues leads to peptides which exhibit insulin releasing activity without stimulating the release of glucagon.

Abstract
Two tetrapeptides, Glp-Met-Asp-Phe-NH2 (I) and Pro-Met-Asp-Phe-NH2 (II), analogous to the C-terminal tetrapeptide amide of cholecystokinin (CCK-4) have been synthesized and their effect on the release of insulin from the isolated Langerhans islets of rat pancreas compared with that of synthetic CCK-4. Both the new congeners exhibited significant insulin-releasing activity at 10(-8) M and 10(-6) M concentrations, suggesting that the biological activity is retained when the N-terminal Trp residue of CCK-4 is replaced by Glp or Pro.

Abstract
Poly (delta-L-Orn) is an example of an iso-polypeptide (i.e. variant of the usual poly a-peptide chain), where the a-carboxyl and delta-amino groups of ornithine are used in polymerization while the a-amino groups form the side chain. A procedure for the synthesis of this iso-polypeptide is described. Circular dichroism studies of poly (delta-L-Orn) and its Na-Boc derivative suggest that these polymers might adopt a conformation in solution similar to the beta-pleated sheet.
