Glycosylated polypeptide and drug composition containing said polypeptide
[Problem] To provide a glycosylated polypeptide having affinity to somatostatin receptors and, compared to somatostatins, having improved in-blood stability. [Solution] The glycosylated polypeptide is characterized by at least two amino acids in a somatostatin or an analog thereof being replaced by glycosylated amino acids.
TREATMENT OF HORMONAL DISORDERS OF GROWTH
The present invention refers to a GPR101 inhibitor, antagonist or inverse agonist or inverse agonist for use in preventive and/or therapeutic treatment of diseases selected from the group consisting of acromegaly and gigantism and to methods for preventive and/or therapeutic treatment of diseases selected from the group consisting of acromegaly and gigantism wherein to a subject GPR101 inhibitor, antagonist or inverse agonist is administered. Further, the present invention provides a GPR101 agonist for use in preventive and/or therapeutic treatment of disorders selected from the group consisting of dwarfism, short stature, hypopituitarism and a disease of low levels of pituitary hormone secretion and to methods for preventive and/or therapeutic treatment of diseases selected from the group consisting of dwarfism, short stature, hypopituitarism and a disease of low levels of pituitary hormone secretion wherein to a subject GPR101 agonist is administered. The present invention also provides GHRH inhibitors, antagonists or inverse agonists and GH antagonists for use in the therapeutic treatment of X-linked acrogigantism (X-LAG syndrome). In addition, the present invention refers to a method of increasing body mass and/or body size of livestock comprising administering to livestock an effective amount of GPR101 agonist. Further, the present invention is directed to a non-human transgenic animal, comprising as expressed transgene a gene encoding GPR101 or overexpressing endogenous GPR101 gene.
