Abstract
A group of growth factors, designated heparin-binding brain mitogens (HBBMs), is disclosed. The HBBMs are isolated from brain tissue by a sequence of purification steps. The growth factors may be useful in the promotion of angiogenesis, such as in the promotion of wound healing, bone healing and in the treatment of burns, as well as in promoting the formation, maintenance and repair of tissue, in particular, neural tissue.
