PRODUCTION OF HUMAN ENDOTHELIAL CELL GROWTH FACTOR COMPRISING TRANSFORMING A HOST CELL WITH AN EXPRESSION VECTOR

摘要

Endothelial cell growth factor is achieved through the application of recombinant DNA technology to prepare cloning vehicles encoding the ECGF protein and procedures are disclosed for recovering ECGF protein essentially free of other proteins of human origin. The product is useful for, among other purposes, diagnostic applications and as potential in the treatment of damaged blood vessels or other endothelial cell-line structures.
