摘要:
Novel soluble Notch receptor ligands and polynucleotides encoding such are disclosed, as well as methods for producing and using these novel nucleotides and polypeptides. These novel polypeptides or agonists or antagonists thereto modulate cellular activity, regulate the growth and division of cell, including stem cells, progenitor and precursor cells, are involved in cell fate decisions, and provide prophylactic or therapeutic benefits for treatment of human diseases. Expression systems are provided that facilitate the production, secretion, and purification of these molecules.
摘要:
Disclosed is a newly identified secreted molecule, identified herein as “monocyte, granulocyte, and dendritic cell colony stimulating factor” (MGD-CSF), the polypeptide sequence, and polynucleotides encoding the polypeptide sequence. Also provided is a procedure for producing the polypeptide by recombinant techniques employing, for example, vectors and host cells. Additionally, procedures are described to modify the disclosed novel molecules of the invention to prepare fusion molecules. Also disclosed are methods for using the polypeptides and active fragments thereof for treatment of a variety of diseases, including, for example, cancer, autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, infectious diseases, and recurrent pregnancy loss.
