It is shown that the active component (with low molecular weight 12-14 kD) is in minor content in the complexes obtained from capillary, as well as from the cavernous hemangioma. The effect of protein complexes from cavernous hemangiomas on proliferation of the brain and pancreatic cells in growing rats was studied.
