The present invention provides methods for modulating angiogenesis and/or apoptosis comprising modulating the activity of at least one VEGF-modulated gene polypeptide. The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions for modulating angiogenesis and apoptosis for the prevention or treatment of diseases associated with VEGF-modulated genes expression. The invention also provides diagnostic assays that use VEGF-modulated gene polynucleotides that hybridize with naturally occurring sequences encoding VEGF-modulated genes and antibodies that specifically bind to the protein. The invention also provides novel human and mouse arginine-rich proteins (ARPs) and nucleotide sequences. The invention provides for genetically engineered expression vectors and host cells comprising the nucleic acid sequence encoding ARPs and for a method for producing the protein.

La présente invention concerne des procédés permettant de moduler l'angiogénèse et/ou l'apoptose, faisant intervenir la modulation de l'activité d'au moins un polypeptide de gène modulé par VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor / facteur de croissance endothéliale vasculaire). Cette invention concerne également : des compositions pharmaceutiques permettant de moduler l'angiogénèse et l'apoptose pour la prévention ou le traitement de troubles associés à l'expression de gènes modulés par VEGF ; des essais diagnostiques dans lesquels sont utilisés des polynucléotides de gène modulé par VEGF qui s'hybrident avec des séquences naturelles codant pour les gènes modulés par VEGF et des anticorps qui se lient spécifiquement à la protéine ; des protéines riches en arginine (ARPs) et des séquences nucléotidiques d'humain ou de souris ; des vecteurs d'expression génétiquement modifiés et des cellules hôtes comprenant la séquence d'acide nucléique codant pour les ARPs et un procédé permettant de produire ladite protéine.
