摘要

A neuronal differentiation inducer comprising at least one peptide which can induce the differentiation of at least one cell into a neurocyte. The peptide is an artificially synthesized peptide comprising an amino acid sequence derived from a BC-box of at least one protein belonging t the SOCS protein family or an amino acid sequence having a partial modification in the BC-box-derived amino acid sequence, wherein the BC-box-derived amino acid sequence is composed of at least 10 contiguous amino acid residues selected in the amino acid sequence constituting the BC-box.
