Abstract
Nowadays, a large number of databases have been developed gathering different types of therapeutic peptides including antimicrobial, antiviral and scorpion toxins peptides facilitating the searching for these molecules and their structural characteristics and pharmacology. Disintegrins, a family of small non-enzymatic and cysteine-rich proteins found in the snake venom may have a potential role in terms of novel therapeutic leads for cancer treatment. Despite their therapeutic effect, no database dedicated to disintegrins is available yet. Indeed, accessible information related to disintegrins are either scattered or fragmented in different databases from which it becomes extremely difficult to collect all the properties related to a particular disintegrin without exploring numerous databases available through distinct websites. Here, we propose DisintegrinDB as a first unique resource centralizing data related to disintegrins from snake venom. DisintegrinDB aims to facilitate the search on a given disintegrin and centralizes all the information on these peptides, helping researchers to retrieve all relevant related information.

Abstract
Rapid advancement of the understanding of the structure and function of cell adhesion molecules (i.e., integrins, cadherins) has impacted the design and development of drugs (i.e., peptide, proteins) with the potential to treat cancer and heart and autoimmune diseases. For example, RGD peptides/peptidomimetics have been marketed as anti-thrombic agents and are being investigated for inhibiting tumor angiogenesis. Other cell adhesion peptides derived from ICAM-1 and LFA-1 sequences were found to block T-cell adhesion to vascular endothelial cells and epithelial cells; these peptides are being investigated for treating autoimmune diseases. Recent findings suggest that cell adhesion receptors such as integrins can internalize their peptide ligands into the intracellular space. Thus, many cell adhesion peptides (i.e., RGD peptide) were used to target drugs, particles, and diagnostic agents to a specific cell that has increased expression of cell adhesion receptors. This review is focused on the utilization of cell adhesion peptides and receptors in specific targeted drug delivery, diagnostics, and tissue engineering. In the future, more information on the mechanism of internalization and intracellular trafficking of cell adhesion molecules will be exploited for delivering drug molecules to a specific type of cell or for diagnosis of cancer and heart and autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
The objective of this work was to synthesize cyclic prodrugs 1a-d of RGD peptidomimetics 2a-d with various ring sizes (n[CH2] = 1, 3, 5 and 7) and to evaluate the effect of ring size on their transport, physicochemical, enzymatic stability, and antithrombic properties. The syntheses of cyclic prodrugs 1a-d were achieved by converging two key intermediates, Boc-Phe-O-CH2-OCO-OpNP (5) and H2N-(CH2)n-CO-Asp(OBzl)-OTce (8a-d), to give linear precursors Boc-Phe-O-CH2-OCO-HN-(CH2)n-CO-Asp(OBzl)-OTce (9a-d). The N- and C-terminus protecting groups were removed from 9a-d to give 10a-d. Linear precursors 10a-d were cyclized, and the remaining Bzl-protecting group was removed to produce cyclic prodrugs 1a-d in around 20% overall yield. The linear RGD peptidomimetics (2a-d) were synthesized using standard Boc-amino acid chemistry by solution-phase method. Increasing the ring size by adding methylene groups also increases the hydrophobicity of the cyclic prodrugs and parent RGD peptidomimetics. The transport properties of cyclic prodrugs 1c and 1d were 2.6- and 4.4-fold better than those of parent compounds 2c and 2d, respectively. These results suggest that increasing the hydrophobicity of the cyclic prodrugs and parent RGD peptidomimetics enhanced their transport properties. The hydrodynamic radii of the cyclic prodrugs were also smaller than those of their respective parent compounds, suggesting that the change in size may contribute to their transport properties. The chemical stability of the cyclic prodrugs was affected by the ring size, and the cyclic prodrug with the larger ring size (i.e. 1d) was more stable than the smaller one (i.e. 1a). All the cyclic prodrugs were more stable at pH 4 than at pH 7 and 10. Prodrug-to-drug conversion could be induced by isolated esterase as well as esterase found in human plasma. An increase in the length of methylene group (n[CH2] = 1, 3, 5, 7) enhanced the antithrombic activity of the prodrugs and the parent compounds. In summary, the ring size of cyclic prodrugs affected their transport, physicochemical, and antithrombic properties.
