A novel group of gastrokines called Gastric Antrum Mucosal Protein is characterized. A member of the group is designated AMP-18. AMP-18 genomic DNA, cDNA and the AMP-18 protein are sequenced for human, mouse and pig. The AMP-18 protein and active peptides derived from it are cellular growth factors. Surprisingly, peptides capable of inhibiting the effects of the complete protein, are also derived from the AMP-18 protein. Cytoprotection and control of mammalian gastro-intestinal tissue growth and repair (restitution) is facilitated by the use of the proteins, making the protein candidates for therapies in inflammatory bowel disease and gastric ulcers.

L'invention concerne un nouveau groupe de gastrokines appelé protéine de muqueuse antro-pylorique. Un membre du groupe est désigné sous la forme AMP-18. L'ADN génomique AMP-18, l'ADNc et la protéine AMP-18 sont séquencés pour l'homme, la souris et le porc. La protéine AMP-18 et des peptides actifs dévirés de cette protéine sont des facteurs de croissance cellulaire. De façon surprenante, les peptides pouvant inhiber les effets de la protéine complète sont également dérivés de la protéine AMP-18. La cytoprotection et la régulation de la croissance et de la réparation (restitution) des tissus gastro-intestinaux sont facilitées grâce à l'utilisation de ces protéines, lesquelles sont désignées en tant que protéines candidates pour des thérapies lors d'une maladie intestinale inflammatoire et des ulcères gastriques.
