Chemistry and structure-activity relations of the antidiuretic hormones

We have reviewed contributions of synthetic peptide chemistry to several aspects of the biology of the posterior pituitary hormones, and have also indicated how purely biological considerations have stimulated advances in peptide chemistry.

Summary:We have reviewed contributions of synthetic peptide chemistry to several aspects of the biology of the posterior pituitary hormones, and have also indicated how purely biological considerations have stimulated advances in peptide chemistry. It is clear that contributions of such broad, interdisciplinary character can be realized only in a setting of close collaboration between chemists, physiologists and clinicians.
