Apolipoprotein l-i and/or derivated polypeptide for the treatment of and/or the prevention of diseases induced by trypanosoma

摘要

The present invention is related to a composition comprising apolipoprotein L-1, the use of apolipoprotein L-1 or a derivated polypeptide for the diagnostic, the treatment and/or the prevention of diseases induced in mammals by Trypanosoma. Another aspect is related to a transgenic non-human mammal comprising a polynucleotide expressing the apolipoprotein L-1 or a derivated polypeptide and which is tolerant or resistant to the Trypanosoma infection.
