摘要:
Methods of using one or more agonists or antagonists to modulate activity of the members of the TNF and TNFR families referred to as TALL-1, APRIL, TACI, and BCMA are provided. The methods include in vitro, in situ, and/or in vivo diagnosis and/or treatment of mammalian cells or pathological conditions associated with TALL-1, APRIL, TACI, or BCMA, using one or more agonist or antagonist molecules. The methods of treatment disclosed by the invention include methods of treating immune related diseases and cancer.
摘要:
Novel, receptors, referred to herein as “TACIs” and “BR3”, agonists and antagonists thereof, and method of using TACIs and BR3, as well as agonists and antagonists thereof, to modulate, for example, activity of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and TNFR-related molecules, including members of the TNF and TNFR families referred to as TALL-1, APRIL, TACI, and BCMA, are provided. Methods for in vitro, in situ, and/or in vivo diagnosis and/or treatment of mammalian cells or pathological conditions associated with such TNF and TNFR-related molecules are further provided.

摘要:
Methods of stimulating or inhibiting activity of monocytes using OPG ligand, or other agonists or antagonists, are provided. Methods of treating pathological conditions, particularly immune related conditions, using such OPG ligand, agonists or antagonists are further provided. Agonists and antagonists contemplated for use in the invention include anti-RANK receptor antibodies, anti-OPG ligand antibodies, anti-OPG receptor antibodies, RANK receptor immunoadhesins, and OPG receptor immunoadhesins.

The present invention relates to transgenic animals, as well as compositions and methods relating to the characterization of gene function. Specifically, the present invention provides transgenic mice comprising disruptions in PRO256, PRO34421, PRO334, PRO770, PRO983, PRO1009, PRO1107, PRO1158, PRO1250, PRO1317, PRO4334, PRO4395, PRO49192, PRO9799, PRO21175, PRO19837, PRO21331, PRO23949, PRO697 or PRO1480 genes. Such in vivo studies and characterizations may provide valuable identification and discovery of therapeutics and/or treatments useful in the prevention, amelioration or correction of diseases or dysfunctions associated with gene disruptions such as neurological disorders; cardiovascular, endothelial or angiogenic disorders; eye abnormalities; immunological disorders; oncological disorders; bone metabolic abnormalities or disorders; lipid metabolic disorders; or developmental abnormalities.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods for the treatment and diagnosis of immune related diseases, including those mediated by cytokines released primarily either Th1 or Th2 cells in response to antigenic stimulation. The present invention further relates to methods for biasing the differentiation of T-cells in either the Th1 subtype or the Th2 subtype, based on the relative expression levels of the gene TCCR, and its agonists or antagonists. The present invention further relates to a method of diagnosing Th1- and Th2-mediated diseases.
摘要:
The present application describes a method of preventing an autoimmune disease in an asymptomatic human subject at risk for experiencing one or more symptoms of the autoimmune disease, by administering a CD20 antibody to the subject in an amount to prevent the subject from experiencing one or more symptoms of the autoimmune disease.
摘要:
The field of the present invention relates to genetically engineered fusion molecules, methods of making said fusion molecules, and uses thereof in anti-tumor immunotherapies. More specifically, the present invention relates to engineered fusion molecules comprising an antibody (Ab) which can target tumor cells (e.g., RITUXIN®), fused to one or more biologic moieties capable of inducing apoptosis in tumor cells, e.g., tumor necrosis factor super family (TNFSF) member ligands such as TNF-α, CD40L, CD95L (also “FasL/Apo-1L”) and TRAIL/Apo-2L. Importantly, the engineered fusion molecules of the present invention retain the death-inducing properties of the biologic moiety at optimum concentrations and with reduced systemic toxicities.
