CA 2589561

The invention relates to the use of a LAPTM4A-interacting molecule for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of a neurogenerative disease. Hereby the LAPTM4A-interacting molecule is preferably an inhibitor of LAPTM4A and particularly it has the capacity to modulate the activity of gamma-secretase and/or beta-secretase. Furthermore the invention concerns a process for identifying a gamma-secretase and/or a beta-secretase modulator, comprising the following steps: a. identifying of a LAPTM4A- interacting molecule by determining whether a given test compound is a LAPTM4A- interacting molecule, b. determining whether the LAPTM4A-interacting molecule of step a) is capable of modulating gamma-secretase and/or beta-secretase activity.

L'invention concerne l'utilisation d'une molécule en interaction avec la LAPTMA4A pour préparer une composition pharmaceutique pour traiter une maladie neurodégénérative. A cet effet, la molécule en interaction avec la LAPTM4A est de préférence un inhibiteur de la LAPTM4A et présente notamment une aptitude à moduler l'activité de la gamma-sécrétase et/ou de la bêta-sécrétase. L'invention concerne en outre un processus permettant d'identifier un modulateur de gamma-sécrétase et/ou un modulateur de bêta-sécrétase, comprenant les étapes suivantes: a) identifier une molécule en interaction avec la LAPTAM4A, par détermination du fait de savoir si un composé d'essai donné est une molécule en interaction avec la LAPTMA4A; b) déterminer si la molécule en interaction avec la LAPTM4A de l'étape a) est en mesure de moduler l'activité de la gamma-sécrétase et/ou celle de la bêta-sécrétase.
