MURINE AND HUMAN CERBERUS-LIKE PROTEINS AND COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING THEM

摘要

Purified mammalian cerberus proteins and process for producing them are disclosed. DNA molecules encoding the mammalian cerberus proteins are also disclosed. The proteins may be used for inducing formation, growth, differentiation, proliferation and/or maintenance of neurons and/or related neural cells and tissues such as Schwann cells, glial cells and astrocytes, and for other tissue repair, including cardiac and endoderm.
