Title:
PEPTIDE VACCINE USING MIMIC MOLECULE OF AMYLOID β-PEPTIDE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2009/054537
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
In the invention, a peptide capable of inducing production of an antibody specific to abnormal amyloid β-peptide is found from mimic peptides of amyloid β-peptide and the resulting peptide is used as a vaccine or an immunogen. The invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a peptide having 8 to 30 amino acid residues containing at least one amino acid sequence of an amino acid sequence represented by the following formula (I): Tyr-Gly-Thr-Lys-Pro-Trp-Met (I) and an amino acid sequence represented by the following formula (II): Leu-Asp-Ile-Phe-Ala-Pro-Ile (II) or a conjugate of the peptide and a carrier.
