Nucleic acids encoding peptides for treating wounds, anti-angiogenic compounds and uses thereof
The present disclosure relates to protein and peptide chemistry. More particularly, it relates to compounds, compositions and uses thereof for promoting and inhibiting angiogenesis. The peptides of the present disclosure include peptides comprising SEQ ID NOs: 1-4 which promote angiogenesis and cell proliferation. Further, the anti-angiogenic compounds of the present disclosure include antisense oligonucleotides that hybridize or are complementary to the polynucleotides of SEQ ID NOs: 5-16, and the like.
1. A peptide comprising an amino acid sequence that is not less than 95% identical to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3.
2. A composition comprising the peptide of claim 1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
3. A polynucleotide that encodes the peptide of claim 1 .
