Patent

CA 2596537

The present invention relates generally to the fields of proteins, diagnostics, therapeutics and nutrition. More particularly, the present invention provides an isolated protein molecule in or related to the tumour necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily such as TNF-a, Lymphotoxin-a (LT-a), TNFRI, TNFRII, OX40, BAFF, NGFR, Fas Ligand or chimeric molecules thereof comprising at least a portion of the protein molecule, such as TNF-a-Fc, LT-a-Fc, TNFRI- Fc, TNFRII-Fc, OX40-Fc, BAFF-Fc, NGFR-Fc, Fas Ligand-Fc; wherein the protein or chimeric molecule thereof has a profile of measurable physiochemical parameters, wherein the profile is indicative of, associated with or forms the basis of one or more pharmacological traits. The present invention further contemplates the use of the isolated protein or chimeric molecule thereof in a range of diagnostic, prophylactic, therapeutic, nutritional and/or research applications.

La présente invention se rapporte d'une manière générale aux domaines des protéines, des diagnostics, de la thérapie et de la nutrition. Plus précisément, la présente invention propose une molécule de protéine isolée qui appartient ou qui est apparentée à la superfamille des facteurs de nécrose des tumeurs (Tumor Necrosis Factor ; TNF) telle que TNF-a, Lymphotoxine-a (LT-a), TNFRI, TNFRII, OX40, BAFF, NGFR, Fas Ligand, de même que des molécules chimériques de celle-ci comprenant au moins une partie de la molécule de protéine, telles que TNF-a-Fc, LT-a-Fc, TNFRI-Fc, TNFRII-Fc, OX40-Fc, BAFF-Fc, NGFR-Fc, Fas Ligand-Fc. La molécule de protéine ou sa molécule chimérique présente un profil de paramètres biochimiques mesurables qui est indicatif d'une ou de plusieurs caractéristiques pharmacologiques, qui est associé à ces caractéristiques pharmacologiques ou qui en forme la base. La présente invention envisage en outre l'utilisation de la protéine isolée ou de sa molécule chimérique dans un éventail d'applications diagnostiques, prophylactiques, thérapeutiques, nutritionnelles et/ou de recherche.
