摘要:
Mast cell-expressed membrane proteins that are highly expressed in human mast cells and the lungs as compared to brain, heart, kidney, liver, tracheal, and similar tissues. The proteins are transmembrane proteins involved in the regulation of mast cell and lung tissue function, including degranulation of mast cells. The preferred protein is a 187 amino acid transmembrane protein having an intercellular domain comprising amino acids 1 through 82, a transmembrane domain comprising amino acids 83 through 105, and an extracellular domain comprising amino acids 106 through 187 (SEQ ID NO:2).

摘要:
The present invention relates to the treatment of ocular diseases and conditions by administering a complement pathway inhibitor, particularly an alternative pathway inhibitor. Ocular diseases include age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and ocular angiogenesis. One embodiment comprises the administration of an anti-Factor D antibody in the form of a whole antibody, a Fab fragment or a single domain antibody. Other complement component inhibitors that may be useful in the present method include Factor H or inhibitors that block the action of properdin, factor B, factor Ba, factor Bb, C2, C2a, C3a, C5, C5a, C5b, C6, C7, C8, C9, or C5b-9.
