Abstract

The new hypocalcaemically active peptides of formula I EQU h-cys-Gly-Asn-Leu-Ser-Thr-Cys-Met-Leu-Gly-Thr-Tyr-Thr-Gln-Asp-Phe-Asn-Lys-P he-His-Thr-Phe-Pro-Gln-Thr-Ala-Ile-Gly-val-Gly-Ala-Pro-OH and corresponding compounds in which one or more of the asparagine and glutamic acid radicals are replaced by the aspartic acid or glutamic acid radical and/or the aspartic acid radical is replaced by the asparagine radical, their dimers, especially those in which 2 identical peptide sequences (1-32 and 1'-32') are joined in an anti-parallel arrangement via the cysteine radicals 1,7' and 7,1' by means of a disulfide bond, and derivatives are useful as hypocalcaemic agents and are prepared by splitting off groups protecting at least one amino or one carboxyl group or oxidizing the corresponding sulfides to the disulfides or condensing together adequate peptides.
