The present invention provides for the treatment of cancers, e.g., carcinomas, using the ectodomain of syndecan 1, where the ectodomain lacks heparan sulfate residues. In addition, agents that bind the ectodomain of syndecan 1 also are useful as anti-cancer therapeutics.
Peptides Of Syndecan-1 For Inhibiting Angiogenesis
The invention provides for peptides from syndecan 1 and methods of use therefor. These peptides can inhibit α4β6 interaction with HER2, thereby preventing tumor cell growth and tissue invasion.
Syndecan Peptides And Polypeptides As Inhibitors Of Cancer
The invention provides for peptides from syndecan 4 and methods of use therefor. These peptides can inhibit α6β4 integrin interaction with EGFR, thereby preventing tumor cell growth and tissue invasion.
The present invention provides a novel peptide from the extracellular domain of syndecan-1 that inhibits migration, metastasis, survival and proliferation of cancer cells.
