Modulators of angiogenesis

The present invention relates to regulation of angiogenesis. More particularly, the present invention is directed to nucleic acids encoding "angiogenesis regulatory proteins and nucleic acids" which are involved in modulation of angiogenesis. The invention further relates to methods for identifying and using agents, including small organic molecules, antibodies, peptides, cyclic peptides, nucleic acids, antisense nucleic acids, RNAi, and ribozymes, that modulate angiogenesis via modulation of angiogenesis regulatory proteins and nucleic acids; as well as to the use of expression profiles and compositions in diagnosis and therapy of diseases related to angiogenesis.
