  • Methods of contacting ? amyloid protein with VEGF
    Patent number: 7795213
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a VEGF polypeptide that binds to A?. The present invention also relates to a compound that sequesters A?. And conversely, the invention relates to a compound that sequesters VEGF. Thus, the present invention also relates to a method of screening for a compound that inhibits the binding of VEGF to A?, and thus relates to prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's Disease.

  • Beta-amyloid binding factors and inhibitors thereof
    Publication number: 20030171556
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a VEGF polypeptide that binds to &bgr;-amyloid. The present invention also relates to a compound that sequesters &bgr;-amyloid. And conversely, the invention relates to a compound that sequesters VEGF. Thus, the present invention also relates to a method of screening for a compound that inhibits the binding of VEGF to &bgr;-amyloid, and thus relates to diagnosis and treatment of Alzheimer's Disease.
