The present disclosure provides GIP receptor agonist peptide compounds having an activating action on GIP receptors and use of the GIP receptor agonist peptide as a medicament for the treatment and/or prevention of diabetes, obesity, emesis, or a symptom or condition associated with diabetes, obesity, or emesis. Specifically, a GIP receptor agonist peptide containing a sequence represented by the formula (I) or a salt thereof, and a medicament comprising the same are provided. Formula I: P-A1-A2-A3-A4-A5-A6-A7-A8-A9-A10-A11-A12-A13-A14-A15-A16-A17-A18-A19-A20-A21-A22-A23-A24-A25-A26-A27-A28-A29-A30-A31-A32-A33-A34-A35-A36-A37-A38-A39-A40-A41-P(SEQ ID NO: 4), or a salt thereof, wherein each symbol is as defined herein, with the proviso that the GIP receptor agonist peptide does not have an amino acid sequence as provided in SEQ ID NOs: 328-893.

GIP receptor agonist peptide compounds and uses thereof

The present invention provides a novel peptide compound having an activating action on GIP receptors and use of the peptide compound as a medicament. Specifically, a peptide containing a sequence represented by the formula (I) or a salt thereof and a medicament comprising the same are provided.P-Tyr-A2-Glu-Gly-Thr-A6-A7-A8-A9-A10-A11-A12-A13-A14-A15-A16-A17-A18-A19-A20-A21-A22-A23-A24-A25-A26-A27-A28-A29-A30-A31-A32-A33-A34-A35-A36-A37-A38-A39-A40-P&#x2003;&#x2003; (I)wherein each symbol is as defined herein.

Peptide compound

The present invention provides a novel peptide compound having an activating action on GIP receptors and use of the peptide compound as a medicament. Specifically, a peptide containing a sequence represented by the formula (I) or a salt thereof and a medicament comprising the same are provided. wherein each symbol is as defined herein.

A process for preparing optically active 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran compounds which comprises subjecting a 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran compound represented by the general formula or a salt thereof to optical resolution with an optically active acid compound: [wherein Rand Rare each hydrogen or an optionally substituted hydrocarbon group; Ris an optionally substituted aromatic group; and C is a benzene ring which may further have a substituent in addition to the amino group]. The process enables industrially advantageous production of intermediates for the synthesis of optically active 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran compounds useful as preventive and/or therapeutic drugs for neurodegenerative diseases and so on.
