Synthetic peptide sp2 and application thereof

Abstract

A synthetic peptide sp2 has the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 1. sp2 has obvious anti-tumor growth activity on xenograft tumours such as subcutaneous human pancreatic cancer, human cervical cancer, and human ovarian cancer in nude mice, with a dose-effect and time-effect relation; and has the effect of delaying metastasis and prolonging the survival time of nude mouse having in situ transplantation of human pancreatic cancer and lung adenocarcinoma. After the animals were given intravenous injection of sp2 at a dose of 2000 mg/kgBW, no toxicity reaction and death were observed. The applications of sp2 also include: (1) preventing and/or treating of tumor; (2) inhibiting proliferation and/or growth and/or invasion of tumor cells; (3) enhancing the anti-tumor immune response; (4) inducing tumor cell differentiation; (5) preparing anti-tumor drugs; (6) inhibiting tumor telomerase activity; and (7) regulating the tumor cell cycle.
