Volume 12Issue Number 10 October 2003 ISSN 10593802 Inhibition of Tumor Growth by a Peptide Present in CartilageAn important chemical constituent of cartilage is a protein called Hyaluronan Binding Protein (HABP). It has been found that HABPs inhibit tumor growth and angiogenesis. A 42-amino segment from HABP has been now been identified as the active region responsible for the antitumor activity. This region contains three repeats of the hyaluronan binding motif, which consist of a sequence of seven amino acids flanked by two basic amino acids.
