  • Use of a neurofilament peptide for targeting neural stem cells
    Patent number: 11096986
    Abstract: The present invention shows that the isolated NFL-TBS40-63 peptide is highly specific for neural stem cells. It is therefore presented here for use in a method for detecting these cells in vitro or in vivo, for addressing chemical compounds or biological materials to said cells, or for treating neurodegenerative disorders or brain tumours.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 23, 2015
    Date of Patent: August 24, 2021
    Assignees: Universite D'Angers, Institut National de la Sante et de la Recherche Medicale (INSERM)
    Inventors: Joel Eyer, Claire Lepinoux-Chambaud

  • USE OF A NEUROFILAMENT PEPTIDE FOR THE TREATMENT OF GLIOMA
    Publication number: 20170000846
    Abstract: The present invention provides a new drug to treat malignant glioma, which is the most prevalent type of primary tumor of the central nervous system (CNS). The present invention indeed shows that the isolated NFL-TBS40-63 peptide is highly specific for glioma cells, in which it triggers apoptosis. It is therefore presented here for use in a method for treating malignant glioma. The present invention further relates to the use of the NFL-TBS40-63 peptide for detecting specifically glioma cells either in vivo, or in vitro, or for addressing chemical compounds to said tumor cells.
