Title:
GROWTH FACTOR RECEPTOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO1988007551
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A 75-85 Kd glycopolypeptide, capable of acting as a receptor for polypeptide of the bombesin type, is isolated from the surface of Swiss 3T3 cells. Certain antagonists and antibodies to the glycopolypeptide are described, the antagonists being of quite different structure to bombesin e.g. [D-Pro<2>]-spantide, [D-Phe<5>]-spantide and position 5 variants thereof. The antagonists and antibodies are of interest medically in that they are able to influence cell proliferation that occurs under the influence of the bombesin-like polypeptides.
