 1. Treatment of Wounds

Publication number: 20050148585

Abstract: This invention relates to the use of cyclic guanosine 3', 5'-monophosphate type five (cGMP PDE5) inhibitors (from now on PDE5 inhibitors), including in particular the compound sildenafil, for the treatment of chronic wounds of a non-diabetic origin, including in particular chronic venous ulcers, chronic decubitus (pressure sores) and arterial ulcers; and acute wounds.

2. 12 Amino Acid Sequence

Publication number: 20050106638

Abstract: The invention relates to an isolated target sequence. The target sequence is a splice variant of PDE5 called a PDE5a1, a component of which is presented as SEQ ID No 1. The identified target sequence of the present invention may be used to as a target to identify agents (such as modulators) useful in the prevention and/or treatment of a disease associated with scarring and/or fibrosis or to selectively identify smooth muscle cells and myofibroblasts and myoepithelial cells in samples of normal and diseased tissue from individuals.
