ABSTRACT:
An activator of the Rse receptor protein tyrosine kinase has been identified which is encoded by growth arrest-specific gene 6 (gas6). Accordingly, the present invention provides a method of activating the Rse receptor by exposing a cell comprising the Rse receptor to exogenous gas6 polypeptide. Moreover, the present invention is directed to a method for enhancing the survival, proliferation or differentiation of a cell comprising a Rse receptor by exposing the cell to exogenous gas6 polypeptide. The types of cells which can be treated according to the method include glial cells such as Schwann cells.
