| 摘要 |
This disclosure relates to an angiogenesis-related pharmaceutical composition using connective tissue growth factor, more particularly to a pharmaceutical composition for promoting angiogenesis containing the connective tissue growth factor or a pharmaceutical composition for inhibiting angiogenesis containing at least one selected from the group consisting of polypeptide, antibody and a compound binding to connective tissue growth factor. The fragment of connective tissue growth factor protein, which was found out in the present invention, is a binding region to FPRL1, effectively induces FPRL1-specific ERK phosphorylation, activates FPRL1 to increase intracellular Ca 2+ concentration, and finally, effectively induces angiogenesis, and thus, the fragment of connective tissue growth factor may be useful for a pharmaceutical composition for promoting angiogenesis, while polypeptide, antibody or a compound binding to the fragment of connective tissue growth factor protein may be useful for a pharmaceutical composition for inhibiting angiogenesis. |
