SECRETORY PROTEIN

The disclosure of the present application relates to a secretory deleted split hand/split foot 1 (sDSS1) protein, the amino acid sequence thereof, the nucleic acid sequence thereof, and the applications of the same. The sDSS1 protein is a secretory protein from higher primate, and can be detected in human serum and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF). The sDSS1 protein can form conjugate with oxidized protein under nonenzymatic condition or with amyloid-beta (Aβ) polypeptide to reduce formation of Aβ oligomer. The addition of sDSS1 protein to culture medium can shield the cytotoxicity induced by oxidized protein, Aβ oligomer, amylin oligomer and glycosylated protein, so as to protect the cells against these toxoproteins. The sDSS1 protein can prolong survival time of senescence-accelerated mice significantly. The protein can be used to prevent and treat the diseases induced by oxidized protein, glycated protein, Aβ protein accumulation, amylin protein accumulation or excessive formation or accumulation of other pathogenic proteins with similar features, and has important potential in biological medicine.
