Abstract

Abstract The present invention provides compositions and methods for promoting cell migration and tissue regeneration. The composition contains a ligand for the alpha v beta 3 integrin and a ligand for the insulin receptor, the PDGF receptor, the IL-4 receptor, or the IGF receptor, combined in a matrix. The combination of alpha v beta 3 ligand and growth factor produces an unexpected synergistic effect in enhancing wound healing compared with the effect of each component separately. The present invention also provides a method of wound healing and a method of inducing tissue regeneration by applying the compositions of the present invention to the site of the wound.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 101 words
A method of treating a wound comprising placing into the wound a composition comprising a substantially purified first ligand to an α v β 3 integrin and a substantially purified second ligand selected from the group consisting of a ligand to a PDGF receptor, a ligand to an insulin receptor, a ligand to an IL-4 receptor, and a ligand to an insulin-like growth factor receptor, wherein said first ligand and said second ligand are incorporated within a matrix, and wherein the combination of said first ligand and said second ligand results in a synergistic effect on cell proliferation or cell migration.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 101 words
A method of treating a wound comprising placing into the wound a composition comprising a substantially purified first ligand to an α v β 3 integrin and a substantially purified second ligand selected from the group consisting of a ligand to a PDGF receptor, a ligand to an insulin receptor, a ligand to an IL-4 receptor, and a ligand to an insulin-like growth factor receptor, wherein said first ligand and said second ligand are incorporated within a matrix, and wherein the combination of said first ligand and said second ligand results in a synergistic effect on cell proliferation or cell migration.
Claim 3
Independent Claim 83 words
A method of treating a wound comprising placing into the wound a composition comprising (a) a first ligand to an α V β 3 integrin consisting of G(dR) (dR) (dR) (dR) (dR)GGG(dR)GDSPASSK (Seq ID No. 1); (b) a matrix consisting of hyaluronic acid conjugated to said first ligand to form a synthetic matrix semi-gel; and (c) a second ligand associated with said synthetic matrix semi-gel and selected from the group consisting of insulin, insulin-like growth factor, IL-4, PDGF and biologically active analogs thereof.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 83 words
A method of treating a wound comprising placing into the wound a composition comprising (a) a first ligand to an α V β 3 integrin consisting of G(dR) (dR) (dR) (dR) (dR)GGG(dR)GDSPASSK (Seq ID No. 1); (b) a matrix consisting of hyaluronic acid conjugated to said first ligand to form a synthetic matrix semi-gel; and (c) a second ligand associated with said synthetic matrix semi-gel and selected from the group consisting of insulin, insulin-like growth factor, IL-4, PDGF and biologically active analogs thereof.
Claim 5
Independent Claim 103 words
A method of inducing or enhancing tissue regeneration comprising placing into a wound a composition comprising a substantially purified first ligand to an α v β 3 integrin and a substantially purified second ligand selected from the group consisting of a ligand to a PDGF receptor, a ligand to an insulin receptor, a ligand to an IL-4 receptor, and a ligand to an insulin-like growth factor receptor, wherein said first ligand and said second ligand are incorporated within a matrix, and wherein the combination of said first ligand and said second ligand results in a synergistic effect on cell proliferation or cell migration.
