Discovery of Inhibitors of Insulin-Regulated Aminopeptidase as Cognitive Enhancers
The hexapeptide angiotensin IV (Ang IV) is a metabolite of angiotensin II (Ang II) and plays a central role in the brain. It was reported more than two decades ago that intracerebroventricular injection of Ang IV improved memory and learning in the rat ...

Comparative studies on angiotensins. IV. Structure of snake (Elaphe climocophora) angiotensin.
Three kinds of snake angiotensins have been isolated from the incubation product of snake (Elaphe climocophora) kidney extract with homologous plasma. The amino acid sequences were deduced by dansyl method as follows : Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Val-His-Pro-Phe X-Asx-Arg-Val-Tyr-Val-His-Pro-Phe-Tyr X-Asx-Arg-Val-Tyr-Val-His-Pro-Phe-Tyr-Leu Tyrosine in position 9 ...
