摘要

The present invention provides compounds and agents that modulate CTGF-mediated cell adhesion and/or binding of CTGF to cells. The invention further provides assays that may be used to identify additional modulators of CTGF-mediated cell adhesion and CTGF binding to cells, and assays that may be used to identify compounds or agents that modulate interaction of CTGF with HSPGs.
