Abstract

A method for treating acute or chronic inflammatory or autoimmune disorders using polypeptides with fibronectin or related activity is provided. The method involves (administering an amount of) one or more polypeptides corresponding to isolated amino acid residue sequences of the 33 kD carboxy terminal heparin-binding region located on the A chain of fibronectin to effectively suppress inflammation and impairment of tissue function in a patient.
