Abstrakt: The dipeptide amide H-Phe-Phe-NH 2 (1) that previously was identified as a ligand for the substance P 1-7 (SP 1-7 ) binding site exerts intriguing results in animal models of neuropathic pain after central but not after peripheral administration. The dipeptide 1 is derived from stepwise modifications of the anti-nociceptive heptapeptide SP 1-7 and the tetrapeptide endomorphin-2 that is also binding to the SP 1-7 site. We herein report a strong anti-allodynic effect of a new H-Phe-Phe-NH 2 peptidomimetic (4) comprising an imidazole ring as a bioisosteric element, in the spare nerve injury (SNI) mice model after peripheral administration. Peptidomimetic 4 was stable in plasma, displayed a fair membrane permeability and a favorable neurotoxic profile. Moreover, the effective dose (ED 50 ) of 4 was superior as compared to gabapentin and morphine that are used in clinic.
