The therapeutic use of VEGF165 to stimulate blood vessel formation for the treatment of peripheral arterial disease or cardiovascular-related disease has met with limited success. Here we describe an affinity-isolated heparan sulfate glycotherapeutic (HS7+ve) that binds to, and enhances the bioactiv...
