Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 35 words
A cyclic pentapeptide compound having the structural formula: ##STR9## wherein X is phenylalanyl; Y is D-tryptophyl; Z is lysyl; Thr is threonyl; and R 1 is hydrogen or benzyl; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 35 words
A cyclic pentapeptide compound having the structural formula: ##STR9## wherein X is phenylalanyl; Y is D-tryptophyl; Z is lysyl; Thr is threonyl; and R 1 is hydrogen or benzyl; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 7 words
A compound according to claim 1, cyclo[Pro-Phe-D-Trp-Lys-Thr(Bzl)].
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 7 words
A compound according to claim 1, cyclo(Pro-Phe-D-Trp-Lys-Thr).
Claim 5
Independent Claim 56 words
A method for increasing release of growth hormone, insulin and glucagon in mammals, said method comprising: administering thereto from 0.00001 to 1 mg/kg of mammalian body weight/day of a compound having the structural formula, ##STR10## wherein X is phenylalanyl; Y is D-tryptophyl; Z is lysyl; R 1 is hydrogen or benzyl; or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
Claim 6
Independent Claim 56 words
A method for increasing release of growth hormone, insulin and glucagon in mammals, said method comprising: administering thereto from 0.00001 to 1 mg/kg of mammalian body weight/day of a compound having the structural formula, ##STR10## wherein X is phenylalanyl; Y is D-tryptophyl; Z is lysyl; R 1 is hydrogen or benzyl; or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 22 words
A method according to claim 4 for releasing growth hormone in mammals wherein the compound administered to said mammalian host is cyclo[Pro-Phe-D-Trp-Lys-Thr(Bzl)].
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 22 words
A method according to claim 4 for releasing growth hormone in mammals wherein the compound administered to said mammalian host is cyclo(Pro-Phe-D-Trp-Lys-Thr).
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 21 words
A method according to claim 4 for releasing insulin in mammals wherein the compound administered to said mammalian host is cyclo[Pro-Phe-D-Trp-Lys-Thr(Bzl)].
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 21 words
A method according to claim 4 for releasing insulin in mammals wherein the compound administered to said mammalian host is cyclo(Pro-Phe-D-Trp-Lys-Thr).
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 21 words
A method according to claim 4 for releasing glucagon in mammals wherein the compound administered to said mammalian host is cyclo[Pro-Phe-D-Trp-Lys-Thr(Bzl)].
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 21 words
A method according to claim 4 for releasing glucagon in mammals wherein the compound administered to said mammalian host is cyclo(Pro-Phe-D-Trp-Lys-Thr).
