摘要:
Agonists or antagonists of CTACK or Vic chemokines, and various methods of use in dermatological and related applications are provided. In particular, the method makes use of fact that the CTACK or Vic chemokines are specifically capable of inducing movement of a skin cell subset. Moreover, matching of ligand with GPR2 receptor in mammals provides methods of use.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a naturally occurring, minimally modified LDL antigen which is present in human atherosclerotic lesions as well as in the serum of a high percentage of patients with coronary artery disease. The invention also comprises antibodies reactive with the antigen, hybridoma cell lines that produce the antibodies of the inveniton, and methods for using the antibodies in the diagnosis and treatment of atherosclerotic disease.
摘要:
The present invention concerns double-stranded NF-κB decoy oligodeoxynucleotide (NF-κB dsODN) molecules that contain a core sequence capable of specific binding to an NF-κB transcription factor. In a particular aspect, the invention concerns NF-κB decoy molecules that preferentially bind p50/p65 and/or cRel/p50 heterodimers over p50/p50 homodimers. In another aspect, the invention concerns NF-κB decoy molecules with improved binding affinity to p65.
摘要:
Methods and compositions are provided for the modulation of monocyte binding to endothelial cells, particularly during inflammatory episodes. Compositions are provided which bind to one or both of the monocyte surface membrane protein or the endothelial surface membrane protein which are complementary or result in the adhesion of the monocyte to the endothelial cell. The subject compositions can be used in diagnosis or therapy.
