Abstract
The matrix-bound growth factor-based therapies for soft tissue healing are analyzed. Growth factor variants are designed as fusion proteins of a fibrin-binding immobilization site, a proteolytic cleavage site, and the growth factor. The function of angiogenic growth factors are also addressed, as chronic dermal wound is related to an angiogenic deficit in the skin. A fibrin-binding fusion with the avb3-ligand found in the sixth Ig-like domain of L1 (L1Ig6) was formed, and this domain induced endothelial process extension in vitro and angiogenesis in vivo similarly to bound vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).
