PHYSIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE PROTEIN ORIGINATING IN MAMMALS

摘要

A novel physiologically active protein molecule originating in mammals which is expressed specifically in arteriosclerosis and/or coronary restenosis and is likely to relate closely to the onset and progress of these diseases; a DNA encoding this protein molecule; an antibody reactive with the molecule; and medicinal compositions containing the above protein molecule and antibody. The above protein molecule, DNA and antibody are useful in treating and preventing arteriosclerosis.
