Heparin Affinity: Purification of a Tumor-Derived Capillary Endothelial Cell Growth Factor

Science
23 Mar 1984
Vol 223, Issue 4642
pp. 1296-1299

Abstract

A tumor-derived growth factor that stimulates the proliferation of capillary endothelial cells has a very strong affinity for heparin. This heparin affinity makes it possible to purify the growth factor to a single-band preparation in a rapid two-step procedure. The purified growth factor is a cationic polypeptide, has a molecular weight of about 18,000, and stimulates capillary endothelial cell proliferation at a concentration of about 1 nanogram per milliliter.
