The invention relates to a method for cleaving human growth hormone GH by means of matrix metalloproteinase MMP. It has been found that MMP-3 cleaves the growth hormone into two fragments, the 16 kDa fragment of which is stable. The invention solves the problem of providing means which positively influence both tumor growth, proliferative diabetic retinopathy and others as well as angiogenesis, in particular on treatment the cardiac infarction, retarded wound healing, menstrual cycle disturbances and others, by means of regulation of the human growth hormone.
本发明涉及一种通过基质金属蛋白酶 MMP 来裂解人类生长激素 GH 的方法。研究发现,MMP-3 能将生长激素裂解成两个片段,其中 16 kDa 的片段是稳定的。本发明解决了提供通过调节人类生长激素对肿瘤生长、增殖性糖尿病视网膜病变等以及血管生成产生积极影响的方法的问题,特别是在治疗心肌梗塞、伤口愈合迟缓、月经周期紊乱等方面。
