Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention provides peptides, portions and derivatives thereof, that are useful for reducing cell migration, and for reducing symptoms of pathological diseases that are associated with undesirable cell migration, and in particular MMP-induced cell migration. This invention also provides peptides that are useful for detecting (e.g., imaging) cancers.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A method for reducing one or more symptoms of a disease associated with cell expression of a matrix metalloproteinase (MMP), comprising a) providing i) a mammalian subject in need of reducing one or more symptoms of said disease, and ii) a composition comprising a purified polypeptide that contains an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of GYPMP (SEQ ID NO:04), VMDGYPMP (SEQ ID NO:01), and GYPKSALR (SEQ ID NO:03), wherein said polypeptide does no…
