  • Patent number: 7713925
    Abstract: The invention provides methods and materials related to modulating syndecan levels and angiogenesis in an animal. The invention provides syndecan polypeptides and nucleic acids encoding syndecan polypeptides, including dominant negative syndecan polypeptides. The invention also provides polynucleotides and polynucleotide analogues for modulating angiogenesis, as well as cells and embryos containing the polynucleotides and polynucleotide analogues. The invention further provides methods for identifying syndecan- and angiogenesis-modulating agents.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 2, 2006
    Date of Patent: May 11, 2010
    Assignee: Regents of the University of Minnesota
