Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 20
Claim 1
Independent Claim 24 words
A method of stimulating angiogenesis in a mammal, which method comprises administering to a mammal a haptoglobin in an amount effective to stimulate angiogenesis.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 24 words
A method of stimulating angiogenesis in a mammal, which method comprises administering to a mammal a haptoglobin in an amount effective to stimulate angiogenesis.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 35 words
The method of claim 1, wherein said haptoglobin is selected from the group consisting of haptoglobin 1.1, haptoglobin 2.1, haptoglobin 2.2, the haptoglobins found in the sera of patients with systemic vasculitis, and mixtures thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 11 words
The method of claim 2, wherein said haptoglobin is haptoglobin 2.2.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 11 words
The method of claim 2, wherein said haptoglobin is haptoglobin 2.1.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 11 words
The method of claim 2, wherein said haptoglobin is haptoglobin 1.1.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 29 words
The method of claim 2, wherein said haptoglobin is one or a mixture of two or more of the haptoglobins found in the sera of patients with systemic vasculitis.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 11 words
The method of claim 2, wherein said mammal is a human.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 28 words
The method of claim 7, wherein said haptoglobin is administered in an amount sufficient to result in a haptoglobin concentration of at least about 2 mg/ml blood plasma.
Claim 10
Independent Claim 28 words
A method of stimulating angiogenesis in mammalian tissue in vitro, which method comprises contacting mammalian tissue in vitro with a haptoglobin in an amount effective to stimulate angiogenesis.
Claim 11
Independent Claim 28 words
A method of stimulating angiogenesis in mammalian tissue in vitro, which method comprises contacting mammalian tissue in vitro with a haptoglobin in an amount effective to stimulate angiogenesis.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 35 words
The method of claim 9, wherein said haptoglobin is selected from the group consisting of haptoglobin 1.1, haptoglobin 2.1, haptoglobin 2.2, the haptoglobins found in the sera of patients with systemic vasculitis, and mixtures thereof.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 11 words
The method of claim 10, wherein said haptoglobin is haptoglobin 2.2.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 11 words
The method of claim 10, wherein said haptoglobin is haptoglobin 2.1.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim 11 words
The method of claim 10, wherein said haptoglobin is haptoglobin 1.1.
Claim 16
Dependent Claim 29 words
The method of claim 10, wherein said haptoglobin is one or a mixture of two or more of the haptoglobins found in the sera of patients with systemic vasculitis.
Claim 17
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method of claim 10, wherein said mammalian tissue is human tissue.
Claim 18
Dependent Claim 19 words
A pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a haptoglobin in a therapeutically effective amount to stimulate angiogenesis.
Claim 19
Dependent Claim 19 words
A pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a haptoglobin in a therapeutically effective amount to stimulate angiogenesis.
Claim 20
Dependent Claim 36 words
The pharmaceutical composition of claim 16, wherein said haptoglobin is selected from the group consisting of haptoglobin 1.1, haptoglobin 2.1, haptoglobin 2.2, the haptoglobins found in the sera of patients with systemic vasculitis, and mixtures thereof.
