TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a novel mutant of a human ciliary neurotrophic factor (hereinbelow abbreviated as human CNTF) and a protein having a four-helix bundle structure similar to that of human CNTF, which are expected to be useful for the treatment of neuropathic diseases.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The market for neuroscience and women's health drugs has been moving towards the use of dual serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRI) for first line treatment of various indications, as evidenced by the recent development of SNRI's such as Venlafaxine and
