    摘要: Small peptide mimics of TGF-.beta., having the general sequence AA.sub.i -AA.sub.i+1 -AA.sub.i+2 followed by AA.sub.i+n shortly thereafter, have been prepared. In this sequence, AA.sub.i is alanine, asparagine, or leucine, AA.sub.i+1 is valine or isoleucine, AA.sub.i+2 is alanine, n is 3, 4, or 5 such that there are n-3 amino acid residues in between AA.sub.i+2 and AA.sub.i+n, and AA.sub.i+n is glutamic acid, aspartic acid, glutamine or asparagine. Because the essential requirement for TGF-.beta. activity is the peptide's ability to form a stable .beta.-bend structure under physiologic conditions, the inventive peptides are collectively referred to as .beta.-bend peptides. Compositions for applications such as tissue repair are also provided that comprise a biocompatible matrix having cytomodulin or a cytomodulin analog admixed with or carried by the matrix.

    摘要: Compositions suitable for pharmaceutical administration are provided in which one compound is a small peptide mimic of TGF-&bgr;. More preferably, pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention are formulated as combinations of two components, wherein one component includes a peptide mimic for TGF-&bgr; and the other component is structurally or biologically analogous to a small region of collagen and mimics the conformation recognized by collagen binding species. A particularly preferred combination is A-N-V-A-E-N-A (SEQ ID NO:1) and G-T-P-G-P-Q-G-I-A-G-Q-R-G-V-V (SEQ ID NO:17).

    摘要: Fibroblast cells are treated with a chemical inhibitor of protein kinase C such as staurosporine, in conjunction with functionally hypoxic micromass culture so as to be induced into chondrogenic differentiation. Such fibroblast-derived, chondrocyte-like cells may be seeded onto three-dimensional polymer scaffolds for use in the repair of articular cartilage lesions, and thus can obviate the need for invasive techniques to harvest autologous chondrocytes from a limited supply of existing articular cartilage, or to avoid the need for obtaining allogeneic chondrocytes from non-biocompatible donor tissues.

    摘要: Compositions of the invention include composites comprising a biomaterial having compounds thereon with enhanced cell binding with respect to collagen. These composites are useful for soft and hard tissue repair or reconstruction and for in vitro uses. Suitable compounds with enhanced cell binding include synthetic peptides that mimic the conformation necessary for recognition and docking of collagen binding species (such as cell surface receptors for collagen and fibronectin) and have the amino acid residues -Ile-Ala- folded in a .beta.-bend.
