Abstract (en)

[origin: WO02070743A2] The invention relates to a method for identifying and/or producing an inhibitor of hair growth. The invention also relates to a method for inhibiting hair growth and to a method for producing a medicament. The invention further relates to a medicament, which comprises an inhibitor of hair growth that is identified or obtained according to one of the inventive methods or to a polynucleotide that codes for an inhibitor, optionally in a pharmaceutically compatible dosage form. The invention also relates to a medicament, which contains a polypeptide comprising the DNA bonding domain but not the transactivator domain of Whn, LEF-1 or Hoxc13 or a polynucleotide that codes for said polypeptide, optionally in a pharmaceutically compatible dosage form. In addition, the invention relates to the use of a polypeptide that contains the DNA bonding domain, but not the transactivator domain of Whn, LEF-1 or Hoxc13 or a polynucleotide that codes for said polypeptide, the use of an inhibitor, which is identified and/or obtained according to one of the inventive methods or of a polynucleotide, which codes for an inhibitor of this type, for producing a medicament for treating hair-growth disorders. Finally, the invention relates to a kit for carrying out the inventive method.
