50 results about "Neuropilin" patented technology

Neuropilin is a protein receptor active in neurons. There are two forms of Neuropilins, NRP-1 and NRP-2. They are transmembrane glycoproteins, and predominantly co-receptors for another class of proteins known as semaphorins. Of the semaphorins, NRP-1 and NRP-2 are specifically receptors for class-3 semaphorins, which, among many things, are responsible for axon guidance during the development of the nervous system in vertebrates.

Use of vegf and homologues to treat neuron disorders

InactiveUS20030105018A1Impaired hypoxic upregulationDeterioration progressNervous disorderPeptide/protein ingredientsTruncal muscle weaknessSurvival of motor neuron
The present invention relates to neurological and physiological dysfunction associated with neuron disorders. In (particular, the invention relates to the involvement of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and homologues in the aetiology of motor neuron disorders. The invention further concerns a novel, mutant transgenic mouse (VEGFm / m) with a homozygous deletion in the hypoxia responsive element (HRE) of the VEGF promoter which alters the hypoxic upregulation of VEGF. These mice suffer severe adult onset muscle weakness due to progressive spinal motor neuron degeneration which is reminiscent of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)-a fatal disorder with unknown aetiology. Furthermore, the neuropathy of these mice is not caused by vascular defects, but is due to defective VEGF-mediated survival signals to motor neurons. The present invention relates in particular to the isoform VEGF165 which stimulates survival of motor neurons via binding to neuropilin-1, a receptor known to bind semaphorin-3A which is implicated in axon retraction and neuronal death, and the VEGF Receptor-2. The present invention thus relates to the usage of VEGF, in particular VEGF165, for the treatment of neuron disorders and relates, in addition, to the usage of polymorphisms in the VEGF promotor for diagnosing the latter disorders.

Neuropilin-1 ligand polypeptide-polyethylene glycol-phospholipid composite, its active targeting liposome vector system and preparation method thereof

The present invention relates to a neuropilin-1 ligand polypeptide-polyethylene glycol-phospholipid composite, its active targeting liposome vector system and a preparation method thereof. The liposome vector system comprises the following components: a: phospholipid, b: cholesterol, c: methoxy polyethylene glycol-phospholipid composite (with the molecular weight of methoxy polyethylene glycol ranging from 400 to 6000), and d: a RPAKPAR sequence-containing polypeptide-polyethylene glycol-phospholipid composite (with the molecular weight of polyethylene glycol ranging from 400 to 8000). And for the components, a and b are in a molar ratio of 5:1-1:5, a and c are in a molar ratio of 1000:1-1000:100, and a and d are in a ratio of 1000:0.1-1000:100. The system can make a liposome passively drained into a lymphatic system through subcutaneous interstitial injection or intramuscular injection, and can make the liposome targeted to a lymphatic metastasis lesion through the mediation effect of RPAKPAR. The system can also make the liposome targeted to a primary tumor and a hematogenous metastasis lesion directly through intravenous injection administration, through a tumor EPR (electron paramagnetic resonance) effect and the mediation effect of RPAKPAR. The liposome vector system of the invention can be used for targeted drug delivery in diagnosis or treatment of prostate cancer primary tumors and metastatic tumors.
