The invention relates to peptides that bind to vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The invention further relates to methods of screening for VEGF-binding peptides, methods of using VEGF-binding peptides to detect the presence of VEGF in a biological sample, and methods of using VEGF-binding peptides to modulate VEGF activity and angiogenesis, and as components in a therapeutic or prophylactic composition. |
