    Abstract: The present invention relates to a transport protein which can be obtained by modifying the heavy chain of the neurotoxin formed by Clostridium botulinum wherein (i) the protein binds specifically to nerve cells with a higher or lower affinity as the native neurotoxin; (ii) the protein has an increased or reduced neurotoxicity compared to the native neurotoxin, the neurotoxicity being preferably determined in the hemidiaphragm assay; and/or (iii) the protein comprises a lower affinity against neutralizing antibodies compared to the native neurotoxin. The invention also relates to methods for producing the same and the use thereof in cosmetic and pharmaceutical compositions.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for suppressing neuroendocrine disease. The therapy employs use of a non-cytotoxic protease, which is targeted to a neuroendocrine tumour cell, preferably via a somatostatin or cortistatin receptor, a GHRH receptor, a ghrelin receptor, a bombesin receptor, a urotensin receptor a melanin-concentrating hormone receptor 1; a KiSS-1 receptor or a prolactin-releasing peptide receptor. When so delivered, the protease is internalised and inhibits secretion from said tumour cell. The present invention also relates to polypeptides and nucleic acids for use in said methods.

    Abstract: A single chain, polypeptide fusion protein, comprising: a non-cytotoxic protease, which cleaves a protein of the exocytic fusion apparatus of a nociceptive sensory afferent; a galanin Targeting Moiety that binds a Binding Site on the nociceptive sensory afferent, which can undergo endocytosis to be incorporated into an endosome; a protease cleavage site where the fusion protein is cleavable by a protease located between the non-cytotoxic protease and the galanin Targeting Moiety; a translocation domain that translocates the protease from within an endosome, across the endosomal membrane and into the cytosol of the nociceptive sensory afferent; a first spacer from 4 to 25 amino acids between the non-cytotoxic protease and protease cleavage site; and a second spacer comprising from 4 to 35 residues between the galanin Targeting Moiety and translocation domain. Nucleic acid sequences encoding the polypeptide fusion proteins, methods of preparing same and uses thereof are also described.
