Patent

CA 2375781

The present invention relates to novel ABC1 polypeptides and nucleic acid molecules encoding the same. The invention also relates to recombinant vectors, host cells, and compositions comprising ABC1 polynucleotides, as well as to methods for producing ABC1 polypeptides. The invention also relates to antibodies that bind specifically to ABC1 polypeptides. In addition, the invention relates to methods for increasing cholesterol efflux as well as to methods for increasing ABC1 expression and activity. The present invention further relates to methods for identifying compounds that modulate the expression of ABC1 and methods for detecting the comparative level of ABC1 polypeptides and polynucleotides in a mammalian subject. The present invention also provides kits and compositions suitable for screening compounds to determine the ABC1 expression modulating activity of the compound, as well as kits and compositions suitable to determine whether a compound modulates ABC1- dependent cholesterol efflux.

L'invention concerne de nouveaux polypeptides ABC1 et des molécules d'acides nucléiques codant pour eux. Elle concerne aussi des vecteurs recombinants, des cellules cibles et des compositions comprenant des polynucléotides ABC1 ainsi que des procédés destinés à la fabrication de polypeptides ABC1. De même, l'invention concerne des anticorps qui se lient spécifiquement aux polypeptides ABC1. En outre, elle concerne des procédés pour augmenter la sortie de cholestérol et des procédés pour intensifier l'expression et l'activité des ABC1. L'invention concerne des procédés pour identifier les composés qui modulent l'expression des ABC1 et des procédés pour détecter le taux comparatif de polypeptides et de polynucléotides ABC1 chez un sujet mammalien. Elle décrit des kits et des compositions utilisables pour cribler des composés afin de déterminer l'activité de modulation de l'expression d'ABC1 dans un composé donné ainsi que des kits et des compositions permettant de déterminer si un composé module la sortie de cholestérol dépendant d'ABC1.
