— Technology Description
Researchers in the Imoukhuede lab at Washington University have developed a library of mutant PDGF-B proteins to develop more effective VEGF pathway inhibitors. As PDGF-B also binds to VEGF receptors, a mutant form can be used to block VEGF binding and stop tumor angiogenesi…
