摘要:
The invention concerns bifunctional fusion molecules for the treatment of IgE-mediated allergic conditions and FcεRI-mediated autoimmune conditions. The invention provides a new therapeutic approach for the treatment of both acute and late-phase allergic responses due to ingestion, inhalation, cutaneous and parenteral exposure to allergens, responses including asthma, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis, severe food allergies, chronic urticaria and angioedema, as well as anaphylactic reactions due to exposures such as bee stings or penicillin allergy. In addition, the invention provides for a novel, safer and more efficacious form of allergy vaccination.
摘要:
This invention is directed to a novel approach for focusing and expressing DNA vaccinates in Antigen Presenting Cells (APCs) mediated through targeting IgE receptors (FcεRs) on APC and driving DNA expression through provision of an APC specific regulatory element This vaccine can be used in the prevention or treatment of allergic disease.

摘要:
The invention concerns bifunctional fusion molecules, and novel, safer and more efficacious methods for the treatment of immune disorders resulting from excessive or unwanted immune responses. The invention provides methods for the suppression of type I hypersensitive (i.e., IgE-mediated) allergic conditions, methods for the prevention of anaphylactic responses that occur as a result of traditional peptide immunotherapies for allergic and autoimmune disorders, and provides novel methods for the treatment of autoimmune conditions, where the methods have reduced risk of triggering an anaphylactic response. The invention provides novel therapeutic approaches for the treatment of allergic responses, including the prevention of anaphylactic response that can occur from environmental allergen exposure. The invention also provides methods for the treatment of autoimmune disorders such as multiple sclerosis, autoimmune type I diabetes mellitus, and rheumatoid arthritis. The invention also provides methods for preventing anaphylactic response during traditional antigen therapies.

摘要:
The present invention is related generally to a method for screening subjects to determine those subjects more likely to exhibit a hypersensitivity to allergen in the presence of airborne pollutants, such subject having a GSTM1 null genotype and/or a GSTP1 Ile/Ile genotype. This invention also provides novel or improved pharmaceutical compositions and therapeutic strategies for the treatment of immune diseases resulting from inappropriate or unwanted immune response such as allergic reactions.
摘要:
Compositions and methods for directing the synthesis of a particular human immunoglobulin isotype are provided. Nucleic acid molecules representing sense and antisense sequences of trans-spliced messenger ribonucleic acid molecules enhance or reduce, respectively, isotype recombination to IgE, IgA or IgG isotypes from an IgM isotype. Particular methods and compositions for the treatment of allergy and allergic reaction are described through inhibition of IgE.
摘要:
Methods and compositions are provided relating to novel IgE isoforms and their use in immune hypersensitivity diagnosis and treatment. The compositions include transcription and translation products of the immunoglobulin epsilon locus, specific probes for epsilon transcription products, and compounds which specifically bind epitopes of epsilon translation products. Novel products of the epsilon locus include the following transcription products and translation products thereof: CH4-M2", SEQ ID NO:02, residues 1-107 and, (SEQ. ID NO:06, CH4'-CH5-M1'-M2, (see SEQ ID NO:02, residues 1-72,SEQ ID NO:03 and SEQ ID NO:05) CH4'-CH5-M2'(SEQ ID NO:02, residues 1-72, SEQ ID NO:03 and SEQ ID NO:07 and CH4'-CH5-M2" (SEQ ID NO:02, residues 1-72, SEQ ID NO:03 and SEQ ID NO:06). Such epsilon products, specific probes and binding compounds find use in methods and kits for immune hypersensitivity diagnosis and treatment.
