Abstract

Prosaposin and peptide derivatives derived therefrom will promote neurite outgrowth in vitro. A peptide consensus sequence was determined by comparing the active neurite outgrowth-inducing saposin C peptide sequence with that of various hematopoietic and neuropoietic cytokines. These cytokine-derived peptides will promote the same processes as their corresponding cytokines. In addition, prosaposin and saposin C promote increased nerve cell myelination ex vivo.
