Patent

CA 2561577

The present invention relates to the field of therapeutic use of proteins, genes and cells. More specifically the invention relates to therapy based on the biological function of a secreted therapeutic protein, NsG33, in particular for the treatment of disorders of the nervous system. NsG33 is a nerve survival and growth factor with antiapoptotic effects on a cell line with neuronal potential and with neuroprotective and/or neurogenesis effects on a neural precursor cell line and on primary striatal cultures. The invention also relates to novel bioactive NsG33 polypeptide fragments and the corresponding encoding DNA sequences.

La présente invention concerne le domaine de l'utilisation thérapeutique de protéines, de gènes et de cellules. De manière plus spécifique, cette invention se rapporte à une thérapie fondée sur la fonction biologique d'une protéine thérapeutique sécrétée, NsG33, notamment pour le traitement des troubles du système nerveux central. NsG33 est un facteur de croissance et de survie des cellules nerveuses, qui présente des effets antiapoptotiques sur une lignée cellulaire à potentiel neuronal et des effets neuroprotecteurs et/ou de neurogenèse sur une lignée cellulaire de précurseur neural et sur des cultures de cellules striatales primaires. Cette invention concerne également de nouveaux fragments de polypeptide NsG33 bioactif et les séquences d'ADN de codage correspondantes.
