NOVEL VASCULAR SMOOTH MUSCLE CELL GROWTH FACTOR

摘要

The present invention provides a novel vascular smooth muscle cell growth factor, a DNA encoding VSGF, a vector containing the DNA, a method for producing a transformant obtained by transformation with the vector, a method for producing VSGF, an antibody specifically reactive to the VSGF and a method for producing the antibody. The VSGF of the present invention is useful for diagnosis and therapy of wound healing failure, intractable skin ulcer, or abnormal blood vessel forming disease by fibroblast growth factor.
