Transmembrane nfat inhibitory peptide

摘要

The present invention aims to solve the conventional problems by providing a peptide compound, in which when administered to a patient of immunologic disease, cardiac hypertrophy or a disease caused by NFAT activation, the period from administration to actual exhibition of effectiveness is short and there are no side effects or antigenicity. Specifically, the present invention relates to a membrane permeable NFAT inhibitory peptide comprising several consecutive arginines and a NFAT-activity inhibitory peptide sequence; a NFAT activation inhibitory agent comprising the peptide; and a immunosuppressive agent and cardiac hypertrophy suppressive agent, comprising the peptide compound as the active ingredient.
