Abstract: The present invention is directed to GDF-5 related proteins having an improved capability of inducing cartilage formation and a reduced capability of inducing bone formation. The novel proteins are particularly useful in the treatment of cartilage defects, wherein the formation of bone tissue is undesirable.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to novel drug delivery devices and pharmaceutical compositions containing growth and differentiation factor proteins. Said devices and compositions are specifically designed to accelerate tissue regeneration and wound healing processes of mammalian tissues. The invention is especially useful for the supportive therapy of diabetic wounds and ulcers.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel biosynthetic growth factor mutants which exhibit improved biological activity.

Abstract: This invention relates to the production and use of pharmaceutical growth factor compositions with novel characteristics, e.g. improved solubility and controlled release characteristics under physiological conditions. The compositions of one or more precursor proteins of growth factors of the GDF family provoke morphogenic effects such as growth, differentiation, protection and regeneration of a variety of tissues and organs, e.g. bone, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, nerves and skin. The compositions can be advantageously used for the healing of tissue-destructive injuries and for the prevention or therapy of degenerative disorders.
