Abstract

The invention relates to a polypeptide, wherein said polypeptide comprises or consists of an EGF-like domain of a neuregulin protein. The invention more over relates to a nucleic acid encoding for said polypeptide, a gene therapy vector comprising said nucleic acid and genetically modified cells expressing said polypeptide. The invention relates to the medical use of said polypeptide, said nucleicacid, said gene therapy vector or said cell for the treatment of tumours of the nervous system, in particular for the treatment of tumours of the cranial or peripheral nerves, tumours associated withneurofibromatosis, schwannomas, neurofibromas and malignant nerve sheath tumours.

Description

[0001] describe [0002] The present invention relates to a polypeptide, wherein said polypeptide comprises or consists of the following: EGF-like domain of neuregulin protein. The present invention relates to nucleic acids encoding said polypeptides, gene therapy vectors comprising said nucleic acids, and genetically modified cells expressing said polypeptides. The present invention relates to the medical use of said polypeptide, said nucleic acid, said gene therapy vector and / or said cells for treating nervous system tumors, especially for treating cranial nerve or peripheral nerve tumors, neurofibromatosis-related Tumors, Schwann cell tumors, neurofibromas, and malignant schwannomas. Background technique [0003] Neurofibromatosis (NF) is a genetic disorder that results in a medical condition affecting the nervous system, skin, bones, and muscles and is often manifested by the presence of multiple soft nodules, neurofibromas, and associated hyperpigmented macules . The d...
