Abstract: The present invention relates to a protein and polypeptide for use in promoting wound healing. It further relates to a nucleic acid molecule encoding the protein or polypeptide of the invention, an expression vector comprising said nucleic acid molecule, and a host cell comprising said expression vector.

Abstract: The present invention relates to substances for the prophylaxis and treatment of a neurodegenerative disease which is not based on a protein-folding disorder. It further relates to substances for the stabilization of photoreceptors.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the diagnosis of a disease or a risk for the development of a disease, in particular a disease which is mediated via the alternative pathway of the complement system. It further relates to a novel diagnostic marker and methods for identifying active agents.
