Abstract
Abstract A compound of the formula Z-His-Pro-Phe-His-X-X-Val-Tyr-(D-)-Y wherein the Xs are the same or different and selected from the group consisting of an aromatic, a chlorinated aromatic, an aliphatic and a chlorinated aliphatic amino acid residue; Y is a positively or negatively charged amino acid residue; and Z is a proline or a polyprolyl residue having up to 5 prolyl residues, is useful for decreasing renin-related high blood pressure.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
87 words
A compound of the formula Z-His-Pro-Phe-His-X-X-Val-Tyr-(D-)-Y wherein the X's are the same or different and selected from the group consisting of aromatic, an aliphatic and a chlorinated aliphatic amino acid phenylalanine, tyrosine, mono-chloro phenylalanine, leucine, isoleucine, valine and glycine; Y is selected from the group consisting of lysine, arginine, ornithine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, and their alpha-carbon esters of lower aliphatic alcohols, and alpha-carbon primary or secondary lower aliphatic amides; and Z is a proline, hydroxyproline, thioproline or a polyproline residue having up to 5 prolyl residues.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
87 words
