Description

Peptides for targeting the Mitochondrial Membrane Permeabilization for Therapeutic Cell Death Induction and biological applications
The invention relates to peptides for targeting the Mitochondrial Membrane Permeabilization (MMP) for Therapeutic Apoptosis Induction. It also relates to the biological applications thereof, particularly to pharmaceutical compositions for treating diseases associated with apoptosis, especially cancers.
The permeability transition pore (PTP) , a polyprotein complex, participates in the mitochondrial homeostasis as well as in the mitochondrial phase of the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis. It integrates multiple death signals including alterations of the intracellular milieu, translocation of pro-apoptotic members of the Bax/Bcl-2 family, p53, and viral pro-teins. As a consequence, PTP can act as a coordinator of the pro- apoptotic mitochondrial membrane permeabilization process and the release of pro-apoptotic intermembrane space proteins into the cytosol. Moreover, the deregulation of PTP has been involved in several major human pathologies such as cancer, neurodegeneration, ischemia/reperfusion, aging, as well as hepatotoxicity.
According to previous works, the inventors have proposed to use PTP as a pharmaceutical target .
This was validated in vitro and in vivo. It was shown that an HIV protease inhibitor, Nelfinavir, affects the pore function of ANT, a member of PTP, and prevents three acute pathologies in mouse via an inhibition of the apoptotic cell death J.Clin. Invest .2005 Weaver et al. Moreover, proteins and pep- tides represent also a broad class of molecules acting on PTP. Some of them can promote directly PTP opening, whereas others can maintain the pore in a closed state, preventing its
2+ opening by other compounds such as Ca , Atr, pro-oxidants or even other peptides. Endogenous, viral, or bacterial
(e.g. porB) proteins have been shown to modulate the activity of various members of PTP. This applies to Bax/Bcl-2 family members (Bax, Bcl-2, BcI-XL, Bid) ; Vpr from HIV-I, vMIA from
Herpes virus, HBx from Hepatitis B, PB1-F2 protein from influ- enza virus ; BH3 peptides and MIlL from Myxoma virus.
The previous characterization of molecular mechanisms of these natural proteins led the inventors to design modified peptides with novel properties in an innovative therapeutic perspective.
It is then an object of the invention to provide new peptides to modulate apoptosis and/or cell death.
It is another object to provide drugs containing said peptides as active principles .
According to still another object, the invention relates to a method for treating pathologies or pathological events in which PTP is implicated.
The invention thus relates to peptides selected in the group comprising an apoptogenic peptidic domain via the mitochondria and/or a cellular penetration or recognition domain.
