Retinal Pigmented Epithelium Derived Neurotrophic Factor And Methods Of Use

US Patent:
6451763, Sep 17, 2002
Filed:
Aug 29, 1995
Appl. No.:
08/520373
Inventors:
Gerald J. Chader - Bethesda MD
Sofia Patricia Becerra - Bethesda MD
Ignacio R. Rodriguez - Rockville MD
Fintan R. Steele - Washington DC
Lincoln V. Johnson - Pasadena CA
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Department of Health and Human Services - Washington DC
International Classification:
A61K 3818
US Classification:
514 12, 514 2
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a purified retinal pigmented epithelium derived neurotrophic factor composition and a method for purifying such a retinal pigmented epithelium neurotrophic factor. The present invention also relates to a recombinant DNA molecule comprising a gene encoding a retinal pigmented epithelium derived neurotrophic factor having the DNA sequence or the amino acid sequence in SEQ ID NO:1 and to an organism transformed with the recombinant DNA molecule. In addition, the present invention relates to a method of treating tumors, ocular diseases, nerve injuries, and conditions resulting from the activity of serine proteases, which comprises administering PEDF.

Pigment Epithelium-Derived Factor: Sequence Of The Pedf Gene

US Patent:
7179621, Feb 20, 2007
Filed:
Aug 1, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/630629
Inventors:
Gerald J. Chader - Bethesda MD, US
Ignacio R. Rodriguez - Rockville MD, US
Sofia Patricia Becerra - Bethesda MD, US
Fintan R. Steele - Washington DC, US
Lincoln V. Johnson - Pasadena CA, US
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Department of Health and Human Services - Washington DC
International Classification:
C12N 15/18
C12N 15/79
C12N 15/63
C12N 1/21
US Classification:
435 694, 435325, 4352523, 4352401, 536 2351
Abstract:
Nucleic acids encoding the neurotrophic protein known as pigment epithelium derived factor (PEDF), a truncated version of PEDF referred to as rPEDF, and equivalent proteins, vectors comprising such nucleic acids, host cells into which such vectors have been introduced, recombinant methods for producing PEDF, rPEDF, and equivalent proteins, the rPEDF protein and equivalent proteins of rPEDF and PEDF-BP, -BX and BA, and the PEDF protein produced by recombinant methods. Effects and uses of these variants on 1) neuronal differentiation (neurotrophic effect) 2) neuron survival (neuronotrophic effect) and 3) glial inhibition (gliastatic effect) are described.
