CA 2319664

Novel forms of vascular endothelial growth factor genes and the novel proteins encoded by these genes are disclosed. More particularly, novel forms of human VEGF-A which contain exon 6b and do not contain exon 6a are disclosed. Other novel forms of human VEGF-A contain exon 6b in addition to exon 6a. These novel forms of VEGF-A include VEGF-A138, VEGF-A162, and VEGF-A182. Such novel VEGF proteins may be used in treatment of the cardiovascular system and its diseases through effects on anatomy, conduit function, and permeability, and more particularly in the treatment of cardiovascular disease by stimulating vascular cell proliferation using a growth factor, thereby stimulating endothelial cell growth and vascular permeability. The invention also relates to nucleic acids encoding such novel VEGF proteins, cells, tissues and animals containing such nucleic acids; methods of treatment using such nucleic acids; and methods relating to all of the foregoing.

L'invention concerne de nouvelles formes des gènes du facteur de croissance endothéliale vasculaire et les nouvelles protéines codées par ces gènes. Elle concerne, plus particulièrement, de nouvelles formes de VEGF-A humain contenant exon 6b et ne contenant pas exon 6a. D'autres nouvelles formes de VEGF-A humain contiennent exon 6b en plus d'exon 6a. Ces nouvelles formes de VEGF-A comprennent VEGF-A¿138?, VEGF-A¿162? et VEGF-A¿182?. On peut mettre en application ces nouvelles protéines de VEGF dans le traitement du système cardio-vasculaire et de ses maladies au moyen des effets qu'elles exercent sur l'anatomie, le fonctionnement et la perméabilité vasculaires, et, plus particulièrement, dans le traitement du dysfonctionnement cardio-vasculaire par stimulation de la prolifération des cellules vasculaires au moyen d'un facteur de croissance, ce qui stimule la croissance des cellules endothéliales et la perméabilité vasculaire. Elle concerne également des acides nucléiques codant ces nouvelles protéines de VEGF, des cellules, des tissus et des animaux contenant ces acides nucléiques, des procédés de traitement mettant en application ces acides nucléiques, ainsi que des procédés relatifs à la totalité de ce qui est énoncé précédemment.
