摘要:
The invention relates to methods of preventing, treating, and ameliorating asthma, allergen-induced respiratory symptoms, and/or an allergic or inflammatory condition of the lung or respiratory system in a patient by administering B Lymphocyte Stimulator antagonists. In addition, the invention provides a method of reducing total serum IgE levels in a patient suffering from asthma, and/or an allergic or inflammatory condition of the lung or respiratory system by administering B Lymphocyte Stimulator antagonists. The invention further provides a method of treating, preventing or ameliorating an allergen-induced airway hyper responsiveness or increase in mucus-containing cells and/or mucus accumulation or production in the airway epithelium of a patient by administering B Lymphocyte Stimulator antagonist.
摘要:
The present invention relates to antibodies, antibody fragments, and related molecules that specifically bind to DR3 receptors. Such antibodies have uses, for example, in the prevention, detection, diagnosis, treatment or amelioration of a disease or disorder, especially inflammatory and autoimmune diseases and other immune system disorders, such as Crohn's disease, colitis, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, arthritis, asthma, Multiple Sclerosis, atherosclerosis, and allergic disorders. The invention also relates to nucleic acid molecules encoding anti-DR3 receptor antibodies, vectors and host cells containing these nucleic acids, and methods for producing the same. The present invention relates to methods and compositions for preventing, detecting, diagnosing, treating or ameliorating a disease or disorder, especially inflammatory or autoimmune disorders, comprising administering to an animal, preferably a human, an effective amount of one or more antibodies or fragments or variants thereof, or related molecules, that specifically bind to DR3 receptor.
摘要:
The present invention relates to nucleic acid molecules encoding Neutrokine-alpha and/or Neutrokine-alphaSV polypeptides, including soluble forms of the extracellular domain. Neutrokine-alpha and/or Neutrokine-alphaSV polypeptides are also provided as are vectors, host cells and recombinant methods for producing the same. The invention further relates to antibodies or portions thereof that specifically bind Neutrokine-alpha and/or Neutrokine-alphaSV and diagnostic and therapeutic methods using these antibodies. Also provided are diagnostic methods for detecting immune system-related disorders and therapeutic methods for treating immune system-related disorders using the compositions of the invention.
摘要:
The invention relates to methods of preventing, treating, ameliorating and otherwise inhibiting organ or transplant rejection in a patient by administering B Lymphocyte Stimulator antagonists. In addition, therapeutic treatment regimens are provided to promote transplant tolerance in a patient following the administration of B Lymphocyte Stimulatorantagonists.
