Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9858962A1] The present invention relates to a ligand polypeptide prolactin secretion modulating activity, and has a function of modulating placental function. The ligand polypeptide can be used as a prolactin secretion-stimulating agent for the prevention and treatment of certain diseases associated with prolactin secretion, such as hypoovarianism, gonecyst cacogenesis, menopausal syndrome, and euthyroid hypometabolism. In addition, the ligand polypeptide of the invention can be used with advantage as an aphrodisiac. The ligand polypeptide of the invention can be used with advantage as a prolactin secretion inhibitory agent in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases associated with prolactin secretion, such as pituitary adenomatosis, brain tumor, emmeniopathy, autoimmune disease, prolactinoma, infertility, impotence, amenorrhea, galactorrhea, acromegaly, Chiari-Frommel syndrome, Argonz-del Castilo syndrome, Forbes-Albright syndrome, lymphoma, Sheehan syndrome or dyszoospermia.
