Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

In certain aspects, the present disclosure relates to the insight that a polypeptide comprising a ligand-binding portion of the extracellular domain of activin-like kinase I (ALK1) polypeptide may be used to inhibit angiogenesis in vivo, particularly in mammals suffering angiogenesis-related disorders. In certain aspects, the disclosure demonstrates that antagonists of BMP9 and/or BMP10, ligands for ALK1, may also be used to inhibit angiogenesis in vivo.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A method of inhibiting angiogenesis in a mammal, the method comprising, administering to the mammal an effective amount of an antibody or antigen-binding antibody fragment that binds to BMP10. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises administering a second agent that inhibits angiogenesis. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the angiogenesis to be inhibited is angiogenesis occurring, in a tumor. 4. The method of claim 1 wherein the mammal has angiogenesis related rheumatoid arthritis and wherein the antibody or antigen-binding antibody fragment inhibits the binding of BMP10 to ALK1. 5. The method of claim 1 wherein the mammal has an angiogenesis related disease of the eye and wherein the antibody or antigen-binding antibody fragment inhibits the binding of BMP10 to ALK1.S. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody or antigen-binding antibody fragment inhibits the binding of BMP10 to ALK1. 7. A method of inhibiting angiogenesis in a tumor in a mammal, the method comprising, administering to a mammal that has a tumor an effective amount of an antibody or antigen-binding antibody fragment that binds BMP10 and inhibits the binding of BMP10 to ALK1.
