Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention relates to a method using a SLIT-ROBO system to treat sarcopenia and, more specifically, to a method comprising administration of a gene selected from among slit1, slit2, slit3, robo1, robo2, and fragments thereof, or a protein expressed from the gene as an effective method for treating a muscle disease or for improving muscular function.
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method for treating a muscle disease caused by decrease in differentiation of myoblast into myotube, muscle wasting or muscle degeneration, the method comprising the steps of: administering one protein selected from a group consisting of amino acid sequences of the following SEQ ID Nos. 1 and 4, or a gene encoding the same to an individual in need thereof: a Slit3 protein consisting of an amino acid of SEQ ID No. 1; and a LRRD2 protein domain consisting of an amino acid of SEQ ID No. 4. 2. A method for improving muscular function in a muscle disease caused by decrease in differentiation of myoblast into myotube, muscle wasting or muscle degeneration, the method comprising the steps of: administering one protein selected from a group consisting of amino acid sequences of the following SEQ ID Nos. 1 and 4, or a gene encoding the same to an individual in need thereof: a Slit3 protein consisting of an amino acid of SEQ ID No. 1; and a LRRD2 protein domain consisting of an amino acid of SEQ ID No. 4. 3. A method for treating a muscle disease caused by Robo1 or Robo2 deficiency, the method comprising the steps of: administering a gene encoding one protein selected from a group consisting of amino acid sequences of the following SEQ ID Nos. 2 and 3 to an individual in need thereof: a Robo1 protein consisting of an amino acid of SEQ ID No. 2; and a Robo2 protein consisting of an amino acid of SEQ ID No. 3. 4. A method for improving muscular function in a muscle disease caused by Robo1 or Robo2 deficiency, the method comprising the steps of: administering a gene encoding one protein selected from a group consisting of amino acid sequences of the following SEQ ID Nos. 2 and 3 to an individual in need thereof: a Robo1 protein consisting of an amino acid of SEQ ID No. 2; and a Robo2 protein consisting of an amino acid of SEQ ID No. 3.
