CXCR4 ANTAGONIST TREATMENT OF HEMATOPOIETIC CELLS

Compositions comprising a peptide consisting of an amino acid sequence derived from a P2G-substituted SDF-1 protein are taught. The amino acid sequence consists of a first sequence consisting of 8 to 17 amino acids from the N-terminal portion of the SDF-1 protein and having a conserved KGVS motif. T...

Zusammenfassung:Compositions comprising a peptide consisting of an amino acid sequence derived from a P2G-substituted SDF-1 protein are taught. The amino acid sequence consists of a first sequence consisting of 8 to 17 amino acids from the N-terminal portion of the SDF-1 protein and having a conserved KGVS motif. The amino acid sequences may also consist of one or more optional components selected from the group consisting of a second sequence consisting of 8 to 17 amino acids from the N-terminal portion of the SDF-1 protein and having a conserved KGVS motif, wherein the second sequence is covalently joined to the first sequence with or without a linker; and, a third sequence consisting of LKWIQEYLEKALN, or conservative substitutions thereof, wherein the third sequence is covalently joined to the first sequence with the linker. Methods of increasing multiplication of hematopoietic cells and enhancing proliferation of hematopoietic cells during engraftment are also taught.
