Problems solved by technology

Destruction of tissues is a feature of diseases affecting many organ types and represents an increasing problem to the population with particular emphasis on the aging.
However, many patients do not effectively respond to the above-mentioned treatments or the treatments lead to a number of undesired side-effects (see e.g. Smolen & Steiner, Nature Reviews, Vol. 2, (2003), 473-488)

examples

[0130] The following examples are intended to illustrate the invention without limiting it thereto.

[0131] To obtain evidence that chondroadherin-derived peptides modulate changes of the phenotype of cells involved in a disease associated with tissue changes, we have performed experiments with such cells (chondrocytes, synoviocytes), and in cartilage explants and an arthritis animal model.

[0132] Materials and Methods

Expression and Purification of Recombinant Protein

[0133] Human chondroadherin cDNA was ligated into the pQE8 vector (QIAGEN Inc. Valencia, Calif.) and expressed in M15 E. coli. Overnight cultures (8 ml) of stationary phase bacteria were used to inoculate 400 ml LB-medium (Luria-Bertani) and the cells were allowed to grow for 2.5 hour at 37° C. (OD600 of 0.7-0.9). Protein expression was induced by the addition of 2 mM IPTG (isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside), (Sigma Chemicals CO., St Louis, Mo.) and the culture was grown for another 4.5 hour. Bacteria were then coll...

Abstract

A linear or cyclic peptide and the use of said peptide in medicine and especially in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment and / or prophylaxis of a disease associated with inflammatory mediated cartilage destruction. The minimal core sequence of the linear or cyclic peptide is WLEAK. Alternatives are WLEAR and WLDAK.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The invention relates to a method for treatment and / or prophylaxis of a disease associated with tissue changes such as, e.g. an inflammatory joint disease such as, e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, juvenile chronic arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), infectious arthritis and juvenile idiopathic arthritis, other diseases involving joint structures such as, e.g., osteoarthritis, meniscal damage, gout, diseases affecting structural elements of the musculoskeletal system such as, e.g., tendon damage, ligament damage, and bone disease such as, e.g., osteoporosis, diseases affecting major arteries including atherosclerosis, vasculitis and trauma leading to injury, lung diseases including asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The invention also relates to novel compounds for use in such a method and compositions, and in a preferred aspect the invention relates to novel peptide compounds with the core peptide sequenc...
