ABSTRACT:
A peptide for diagnosing, preventing and treating atherosclerosis, and a use thereof, comprising an amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1 or SEQ ID NO: 2, and a use thereof. The peptide effectively targets atherosclerotic plaques, and binds to IL-4R to thereby exhibit antagonistic effects on IL-4-mediated signaling of cellular inflammatory reaction and survival reaction. The peptide of the present invention can be used for diagnosis of atherosclerosis, prevention and treatment of IL-4-induced inflammatory reaction and prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis which is primarily caused by the inflammatory reaction, as well as for prevention or treatment of atherosclerosis via conjugation with an anti-atherosclerotic drug.
