ABSTRACT:
The disclosure relates to a method of inhibiting the infectivity of a virus, the virus being characterized by the presence of a heparin-binding protein, which comprises contacting the cellular receptor for the virus or the receptor-binding protein of the virus with an effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition containing the HBNF protein, the MK protein or a combination thereof in a sufficient amount to inhibit the infectivity of the virus. Also, this disclosure concerns a method of preventing or treating a viral infection in a subject, the virus being characterized by the presence of a heparin-binding protein, which comprises administering to the subject an effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition containing HBNF, MK or a combination thereof in a sufficient amount to prevent or treat the viral infection in the subject. Further, the disclosure describes a new composition comprising a combination of the HBNF and MK proteins. Both HBNF and MK possess heparin-binding activity, displace bFGF from high affinity receptors and inhibit growth of endothelial cells.
