Abstract We isolated a novel gene designated spinal cord-derived growth factor (SCDGF). Its expression was increased in chick spinal cords with embryonic development and decreased after hatching. The amino acid sequences of chick and human SCDGFs revealed a putative signal sequence followed by a CUB domain and a region homologous to the members of the platelet-derived growth factor/vascular endothelial growth factor family. Furthermore, human SCDGF secreted from the cells showed a mitogenic activity for 10T1/2 cells in vitro. These results led us to speculate that SCDGF plays an important role in the development of the spinal cord.
