Abstract

La présente invention concerne un peptide comprenant au moins une séquence d'acides aminés choisie dans le groupe constitué par la séquence d'acides aminés SEQ ID NO : 1, la séquence d'acides aminés SEQ ID NO : 2, la séquence d'acides aminés SEQ ID NO : 3, et la séquence d'acides aminés SEQ ID NO : 4, et ayant une activité prophylactique ou thérapeutique contre une maladie inflammatoire ou auto-immune. La présente invention concerne également une composition pharmaceutique ou anti-inflammatoire comprenant au moins l'un des peptides de SEQ ID NO : 1 à 4 destinée à la prophylaxie ou la thérapie d'une maladie inflammatoire ou auto-immune. La présente invention concerne en outre une utilisation d'au moins l'un des peptides de SEQ ID NO : 1 à 4 dans une méthode thérapeutique pour une maladie inflammatoire ou auto-immune ou dans la préparation d'un médicament thérapeutique pour une maladie inflammatoire ou auto-immune. Le peptide comprenant l'une quelconque des séquences d'acides aminés de SEQ ID NO : 1 à 4 peut inhiber de manière significative la sécrétion ou l'expression de cytokines inflammatoires telles que IL-17, etc. et a ainsi, une activité prophylactique ou thérapeutique dirigée contre une maladie inflammatoire ou auto-immune. Par conséquent, une composition comprenant au moins l'un des peptides est efficace pour une utilisation dans une composition pharmaceutique destinée à la prophylaxie ou la thérapie d'une maladie inflammatoire ou auto-immune, dans une méthode thérapeutique, et dans la préparation d'un médicament thérapeutique, ou en tant que composition anti-inflammatoire.
