Three new cyclic substance P analog were prepared to examine the possible role of a pseudocyclic turn structure for receptor recognition. In the guinea pig isolated ileum .**GRAPHIC**. and .**GRAPHIC**. were inactive at concentrations up to 100 .mu.M, while .**GRAPHIC**. was a weak agonist. The order of relative affinities on the rat brain radioreceptor assay was as follows: .**GRAPHIC**. > .**GRAPHIC**. > .**GRAPHIC**. Apparently, a pseudocyclic structure of the 5-11 sequence may not be an important factor involved in the receptor recognition of substance P.
