Tandem deprotection/coupling for peptide synthesis in water at room temperature
A tandem deprotection/coupling sequence is reported for solution-phase peptide synthesis in water under micellar catalysis conditions using the designer surfactant TPGS-750-M. Cbz deprotection followed by peptide coupling in the presence of COMU and 2,6-lutidine afforded polypeptides containing up to 10 amino acid residues. A broad scope characterizes this new technology. No epimerization has been detected. The associated E Factors, as a measure of "greenness" and known to be extremely high for peptide couplings, have been reduced to less than 10 due to the step-economy and minimal amounts of organic solvent needed for product extraction.

DISLODGEMENT AND RELEASE OF HSC USING ALPHA 9 INTEGRIN ANTAGONIST AND CXCR4 ANTAGONIST
Haematopoietic stem cell mobilization is a process whereby haematopoietic stem cells are stimulated out of the bone marrow space. Before HSC can mobilize, they must be dislodged and released from the BM stem cell niche in which they reside and are retained by adhesive interactions. Accordingly, in an aspect of the present invention there is provided a method for enhancing dislodgement of HSC and their precursors and progenitors thereof from a BM stem cell binding ligand in vivo or ex vivo, said method comprising administering in vivo or ex vivo an effective amount of an antagonist of an α9 integrin or an active portion thereof and a CXCR4 antagonist or an active portion thereof to the BM stem cell niche. Once mobilized to the peripheral blood (PB) the HSC may be collected for transplant. Methods which enhance mobilization of the HSC can also improve treatments of haematological disorders.

The discovery of small molecule carbamates as potent dual α4β1/α4β7 integrin antagonists
The α4β1 and α4β7 integrins are implicated in several inflammatory disease states. Systematic SAR studies of an α4β1-specific arylsulfonyl-Pro-Tyr lead led to the identification of a new α4β7 binding site, best captured by O-carbamates of Tyr for this structural class. Several compounds showed a 200- to 400-fold improvement in α4β7 binding affinity while maintaining subnanomolar α4β1 activity, for example 2l, VCAM-Ig α4β1 IC50=0.13 nM, VCAM-Ig α4β7 IC50=1.92 nM.
