摘要:
An anti-IL-6 antibody, including isolated nucleic acids that encode at least one anti-IL-6 antibody, vectors, host cells, transgenic animals or plants, and methods of making and using thereof have applications in diagnostic and/or therapeutic compositions, methods and devices.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to a method of using function blocking tissue factor antibodies to enhance graft survival in mammals. Function blocking antibodies having the effect of blocking activated tissue factor (TF), TF and its ligand FVII as either the inactive TF:FVII or active TF:FVIIa complex, or block the formation of the TF:FVIIa:FX ternary complex are useful in the method. These properties provide a therapy that has directed action towards thrombotic events involving tissue-plasma interactions but does not prevent the intrinsic pathway for coagulation. Activated TF arises on cells, tissues, and organs during or after transplantation and is a major cause of graft loss.
