摘要:
A leukaemia-inhibitory factor (LIF) is disclosed, together with a method of preparation of LIF in essentially pure form. Nucleotide and amino acid sequences are disclosed, together with recombinant DNA moleclues and host cells for production of polypeptides having LIF activity.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for producing recombinant leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) by the expression, in suitable host cells, of recombinant DNA molecules encoding LIF.
摘要:
Leukemia-inhibitory factor (LIF) has been produced in essentially pure form from murine or human sources. A method of purifying this LIF is disclosed, as well as polypeptides having LIF activity which are not identical in amino acid sequence to any naturally occurring form of LIF. The polypeptides can be used for hindering the proliferation of myeloid Leukemia cells.
摘要:
The invention provides a recombinant or synthetic receptor for granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and biochemical and/or biological equivalents, homologues, or derivatives thereof. The GM-CSF receptor is useful inter alia in treatment and diagnosis of GM-CSF related diseases, and in screening of agonists and antagonists of binding of GM-CSF to its cell-bound receptors. The invention further provides nucleic acid sequences encoding GM-CSF receptor, recombinant DNA molecules comprising these sequences, and transformed hosts carrying the recombinant DNA molecules, as well as antibodies directed against GM-CSF receptor, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising either the GM-CSF receptor or antibodies thereto.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to therapeutic and diagnostic agents. More particularly, the present invention provides therapeutic molecules capable of modulating signal transduction such as but not limited to cytokine-mediated signal transduction. The molecules of the present invention are useful, therefore, in modulating cellular responsiveness to cytokines as well as other mediators of signal transduction such as endogenous or exogenous molecules, antigens, microbes and microbial products, viruses or components thereof, ions, hormones and parasites.

摘要:
The present invention relates generally to a novel haemopoietin receptor or components or part thereof and to genetic sequences encoding same. The receptor molecules and their components and/or parts and the genetic sequences encoding same of the present invention are useful in the development of a wide range of agonists, antagonists, therapeutics and diagnostic reagents based on ligand interaction with its receptor.
