Novel proteins C16 and C16N or genes encoding the same; proteins analogous to these novel proteins; partial peptides; antibodies; transgenic animals; a method for screening inhibitors by using these novel proteins; inhibitors obtained by the above screening method; etc. The novel proteins C16 and C16N or the proteins analogous thereto have the activities of inducing differentiation into cells capable of degrading hydroxyapatite, maintaining the survival of neurons, inhibiting the proliferation of osteoblasts, and/or promoting the expression of type I collagen in osteoblasts. Thus, the above proteins are applicable to the treatment of various diseases curable through the exhibition of these functions.

La présente invention, qui concerne les protéines C16 et C16N ou les gènes codant pour ces protéines, concerne également notamment, des analogues de protéines correspondant aux protéines de l'invention, des peptides partiels, des anticorps, des animaux transgéniques, un procédé de dépistage d'inhibiteurs par utilisation des protéines de l'invention, et des inhibiteurs obtenus en utilisant ces procédés de dépistage. Les protéines C16 et C16N de l'invention ou les analogues de protéines leur correspondant ont comme activité d'induire dans les cellules une différentiation capable de dégrader l'hydroxyapatite, de prolonger la survie des neurones, d'inhiber la prolifération des ostéoblastes, et/ou de favoriser l'expression de collagène de type I dans les ostéoblastes. Il en résulte que les protéines de l'invention conviennent particulièrement au traitement de différentes maladies pouvant se soigner par la mise en évidence de ces fonctions.
