Abstract

DNA isolates coding for a vascular endothelial cell growth factor may be used to produce the protein via recombinant expression systems. Such protein is useful therapeutically to treat conditions in which a selective action on the vascular endothelial cells, in the absence of excessive connective tissue proliferation, is desirable.
