Abstract
Methods for treating ischemia using polypeptides with fibronectin related activity are provided. The methods involve administering an effective amount of one or more polypeptides which include an amino acid sequence corresponding substantially to isolated an amino acid sequence from the 33 kD carboxy terminal heparin-binding region located on the A chain of fibronectin or an RGD-containing amino acid sequence within the 11.5 kD RGDS-mediated cell adhesion region located on all isoforms of fibronectin.
