Abstract
The invention relates to peptides of up to 10 amino acids that are synthesized by substituting at least one of the bradykinin amino acids found in positions 2, 3, 4 and 5 of the bradykinin peptide with a fatty acid amine. The modified bradykinin peptides produced confer increased resistance to enzymatic degradation and/or tissue specificity. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical preparations and processes of treatments using the modified bradykinin peptides.
