  • the present invention relates to novel compositions of matter a methods for the treatment of respiratory distress with these nov compositions.
  • This invention also relates to the use of polypeptid (protein fragments) which enhance the surfactant-like properties phospholipids. More specifically, the present invention relates to nov polypeptides comprising fragment replicas and analogs of fragment replic of the naturally occurring low molecular weight hydrophobic surfacta associated protein known as SP-B and to their use in the formulation novel medicaments useful in the establishment, modification and/ maintenance of pulmonary surface tension.
  • SP-C is also referred to as SAP-C, SAP-(Val), SAP-6 (Val) and SPL (Val) in the prior art.
  • SP-B and SP-C are distinct gene products with unique a ino acid sequences. Both proteins are derived from proteolytic processing of larger precursor proteins synthesized by pulmonary type II epithelial eel1s.

  • SP-C has an amino terminal glycine residue, a molecular weight of about 3,700, a polyvaline sequence, and, like SP-B, is also extremely hydrophobic.

  • SP-A is a glycoprotein containing an internal collagen-like region which is rich in glycine and hydroxyproline. This protein has a N-linked complex carbohydrate and a calcium binding site in the C-terminal globular domain.
  • SP-A is known to bind to phospholipids and is thought to confer important structural organization to the surfactant lipids. This protein is also believed to play a role in preventing the inhibition of pulmonary surfactant activity by plasma or other proteins.
  • SP-B and SP-C The complete amino acid sequence of SP-B and SP-C has been determined from amino acid analysis and deduced from cDNA's derived from the mRNA's encoding the proteins.
  • the SP-B and SP-C proteins are available as isolates from natural sources, such as bronchioalveolar lung washes and minced lung tissue or as products resulting from the application of recombinant DNA methodologies. When formulated with phospholipids (including synthetic phospholipids) these proteins provide compositions useful in the treatment of pulmonary disorders.
  • SP-B and SP-C proteins resides in their ability to improve significantly the surface tension lowering capacity and respreadability of phospholipid admixtures. Natural SP-B and SP- C have been shown, both individually as well as in combination, to facilitate this improvement in surfactant-like activity of phospholipids.

Biophysical testing was assayed using both the modified Wilhelmy balance (Langmuir Trough) system and the pulsating bubble surfactometer (PBS).
  • the dynamic surface tension lowering properties of the peptide/lipid admixtures were studied using a modified Wilhelmy Surface Balance (Langmuir Trough).
  • the instrument consists of an all Teflon trough and movable Teflon ribbon (dam) barrier system which completely contains and defines a variable surface area. Surface area was varied through the use of a constant rate reversible 3-phase motor to drive the Teflon barrier.

  • the Pulsating Bubble Surfactometer (PBS).
  • the PBS equipment (Electronetics, Buffalo, New York) used was essentially equivalent to that described in detail by G. Enhorning, J. Appld. Physiol.43, 198-203, (1977). Recordings were made of the pressure gradient across the wall of a small air bubble, communicating with ambient air by means of a narrow chimney stack, but otherwise entirely surrounded by a 40 ul volume of the peptide/lipid admixture.
  • the admixture concentration employed for these studies was 1 mg/ml total phospholipid (0.02 mg/ml total peptide) and the diluent was 0.15 M NaCl.
  • the diluted samples were sonicated for 15 seconds to remove any gas nuclei.
  • the pressure drop across the air-water interface was measured during pulsation by a pressure transducer, and the corresponding surface tension was determined at minimum and maximum bubble size through the application of Young's law and the Laplace equation. Measurements were all made at 37 ⁇ C and the bubble pulsed at 20 cycles/minute to render respectively a maximum (1.1mm) and a minimum (0.8mm) bubble diameter. (This compression/expansion corresponds to a 50% change in the surface area of the air-water interface).
  • Tables 3 and 4 Dynamic surface tension and absorption facility are summarized in Tables 3 and 4 below.
  • Table 3 summarizes the dynamic surface tension and adsorption data obtained with the various peptide-lipid admixtures on the Wilhelmy Balance -Langmuir Trough System.
  • low minimum dynamic surface tension values (less than 10 dynes/cm) and reduced adsorption surface tension values (less than 50 dynes/cm) are desirable properties of a good surfactant formulation.
  • Low maximum surface tension values (less than 60 dynes/cm) are also desirable.
  • Table 4 summarizes the surface tension values at the air-aqueous interface obtained for the various peptide-admixtures on the pulsating bubble surfactometer. As with the Wilhelmy Balance, to one skilled in the art it will be obvious that admixtures which result in the generation low surface tension values at minimum bubble size are typically classified as effective surfactant compositions. Minimum surface tension values less than 10 mN/m2 are deemed desirable.
  • each of the admixtures was formulated so as to contain an equal number of moles of the individual peptide as is contained in a 0.5 mg/mL admixture of SP-B(53-78). This enabled the assessment of individual peptide surface activity relative to a comparable number of SP-B(53-78) molecules contained in the same lipid admixture. Thereafter, each of these admixtures was diluted with the standard lipid mixture as described in Example 4, so as to provide doubling dilutions of the equimolar "parent" stock peptide admixture. The lipid concentration in all cases was maintained at 25 mg/ml.
  • SP-B(58-78)diAla, SP-B(63-78)diAla and SP-B(66-78)diAla is both surprising and unexpected and, forms in part, the basis for the present invention.
  • This invention overcomes numerous problems associated with natural, synthetic or recombinant SP-B (1-78). It is quite apparent that production of only portions of the Carboxyl terminal region of the SP-B (1-78) molecule will enhance and accelerate the commercial production of pulmonary surfactant products.
