<Conventional Technology> Steroids have been used as potent anti-inflammatory drugs for the treatment of many inflammatory diseases. However, steroids have various side effects due to their hormonal effects, and their use must be limited to relatively serious patients. Therefore, the development of new drugs having the same anti-inflammatory action as steroids and having few side effects has become the greatest demand for doctors who treat inflammatory diseases.

The present inventors focused on these problems, first, purified from peritoneal exudate of rats caused peritonitis phospholipase A 2 casein administration. Then, a protein that specifically inhibits this enzyme was found in peritoneal washings of rats administered with dexamethasone, and its purification and N-terminal amino acid sequence were successfully determined (JP-A-63-246397). This inhibitory protein did not show any inhibitory activity against phospholipase A 2 of膵由come. That is, the inhibitory protein is intended quite unique in having activity which overcomes the above two points, which has been a problem in previous studies, a much stronger anti-inflammatory effect than the conventional phospholipase A 2 inhibitory proteins Can be expected.

The N-terminal amino acid sequence of this inhibitory protein showed extremely high homology with a part of the amino acid sequence of the human C3 chain. Therefore, this inhibitory protein was considered to be a degradation product of C3. It is known that C3 is degraded stepwise by proteases in serum, and various fragments such as C3a and C3b are generated. Inflammatory sites derived phospholipase A 2 inhibitory protein which the inventors have purified from rat peritoneal washings human C3
Was considered to be similar to C3dg or C3d, which is the final degradation product of (Suwa et al., Pro. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA,
