Angiotensin III (Ang III) is a bioactive heptapeptide that is formed from the degradation of the Angiotensin II peptide by aminopeptidase A. In peripheral Angiotensin systems, Angiotensin II is the main effector peptide in the systemic circulation, although exogenous Angiotensin III can be as potent as Angiotensin II in, for example, stimulating aldosterone secretion or inhibiting renin release. In the rat brain, Angiotensin III was found to be equipotent with Angiotensin II as a pressor agent or dipsogen and was bound as avidly to the nervous system as Angiotensin II. Angiotensin receptor subtype AT1 has the greater affinity towards Angiotensin II and is also responsive to Angiotensin III, while the AT2 receptor subtype appears to be more sensitive to Angiotensin III but less responsive to Angiotensin II. Angiotensin III enhances blood pressure, vasopressin release and thirst when it is centrally administrated. Angiotensin III infusion increases blood pressure in healthy volunteers and hypertensive patients as well as augments aldosterone release. Although Angiotensin III does not change renal function in humans, it induces natriuresis in AT, receptor-blocked rats likely by binding to AT2 receptors. In addition, in cultured renal cells, this peptide stimulates the expression of many growth factors, proinflammatory mediators, and extracellular matrix proteins.

Peginesatide (trade name Omontys, formerly Hematide), developed by Affymax and Takeda, is an erythropoietic agent, a functional analog of erythropoietin. It was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for treatment of anemia associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adult patients on dialysis. Peginesatide is a synthetic peptide, attached to polyethylene glycol ("PEGylated"). It mimics the structure of erythropoietin, the human glycoprotein which promotes red blood cell development. Peginesatide binds to and activates the human erythropoietin receptor and stimulates erythropoiesis in human red cell precursors in vitro.

Sermorelin, a 29 amino acid analog of human growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH), is the shortest synthetic peptide with a full biological activity of GHRH which is used as a diagnostic agent to assess growth hormone (GH) secretion for the purpose of diagnosing growth hormone deficiency. Intravenous and subcutaneous sermorelin specifically stimulate growth hormone secretion from the anterior pituitary. Sermorelin binds to the growth hormone releasing hormone receptor and mimics native GRF in its ability to stimulate growth hormone secretion. Hormone responses to intravenous sermorelin appear to be a rapid and relatively specific test for the diagnosis of growth hormone deficiency.

Saralasin is an angiotensin II analogue which was developed for the treatment of hypertension in 1970s. For many years saralasin was supposed to be angiotensin receptors blocker, but recent studies have revealed that its pharmacological action can be explained by agonistic behavior toward angiotensin II receptor. The drug was approved by FDA under the name Sarenin, however, it is no longer available on the market.

Seractide is a polypeptide hormone corresponding to thirty-nine amino acids of human corticotropin that differs from full-length human corticotropin at four positions. Seractide is potent endogenous melanocortin receptor 2 (MC ) agonist. Seractide stimulates the cortex of the adrenal gland and boosts the synthesis of corticosteroids, mainly glucocorticoids but also sex steroids (androgens). Seractide, was approved by FDA in 1978, but was never marketed. The Seractide, that was ultimately withdrawn by FDA in 2014 for safety reasons.
