摘要:
Variants of homodimer-forming chemokines, such as human CCL2, having a single amino acid substitution in the dimerization interface that alters the pattern of hydrogen bonds and acting as an obligate monomer, can antagonize natural chemokines and have anti-inflammatory activity in vivo. These variants can be used as active ingredient in pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of inflammatory, autoimmune, or infectious diseases.

摘要:
Mutants of specific CC-chemokines containing a non-conservative substitution in a conserved consensus sequence act as CC-chemokine antagonists, and can be effectively used in the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, cancers, and viral or bacterial infections. Particularly preferred are the RANTES/CCL5 mutants having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, or 4.

摘要:
Novel antagonists of the chemokine CXCL8 (also known as Interleukin-8) can be obtained by generating mutants having specific combinations of non-conservative substitutions of basic amino acids located in the C-terminal region. Compounds prepared in accordance with the present invention can be used to block CXCL8 activity in vivo, thereby providing therapeutic compositions for use in the treatment or prevention of CXCL8-related diseases.

摘要:
A novel CC-chemokine binding protein is isolated from the saliva of Rhipicephalus sanguineus. Compounds prepared in accordance with the present invention can be used as anti-inflammatory compounds and in the treatment or prevention of CC-chemokine-related diseases.
摘要:
Novel antagonists of MCP proteins, in particular of MCP-1 protein, can be obtained by generating MCP mutants whose GAG binding site, located at the N-terminal of MCP proteins, is eliminated following non-conservative substitutions. Compounds prepared in accordance with the present invention can be used in the treatment or prevention of diseases related to an undesirable activity of MCP proteins such, such as inflammatory disease, autoimmune diseases, vascular diseases, and cancer.
