Synthetic peptide BRAP and application in preparation of anti-inflammatory drug for COVID-19 thereof

Abstract

A synthetic peptide brap can be used in preparing an anti-inflammatory drug for COVID-19. The amino acid sequence of a synthetic peptide brap is as shown in SEQ ID No: 1. The synthetic bradykinin receptor antagonism peptide (brap) has significant target-docking and inhibiting effects on G-protein-coupled bradykinin B1 and B2 receptors. The intranasal administration of brap has local effects on allergic nasal inflammation, and has systemic pharmacodynamic effect on pulmonary leakage, lung injury and LPS-induced cytokine storm. The intravenous injection of brap has an obvious inhibiting effect on the excessive inflammation, oxidative stress response and serious lung injury emerging in LPS-induced mice; and has an obvious inhibiting effect on the excessive release of proinflammatory factors IL-6 and TNF-α, overexpression of IL-6 mRNA, and massive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the LPS-induced inflammatory factor storm.
