Rick,

Thanks for the info on del-1 and your article, which I'm reposting for the benefit of others who would like more information on angiogenesis:

It sounds like PGEN's del-1 may be a very promising bet for a collaboration. The Lehman analyst said he expects an announcement on that collaboration sometime in 1H98. Here is a bit more from their news announcement on Del-1 from H. Ralph Snodgrass, Ph.D. PGEN's VP Research and Chief Scientific Officer:

"The specificity of del-1 gene expression, as revealed in these functional studies, makes it a promising target for cancer therapy. The protein's specific binding with [lambda-V-beta-3] integrin makes it an attractive lead for small-molecule or peptide drugs to modulate blood vessel formation in conditions such as ischemia and restenosis folowing angioplasty."
