摘要:
The present invention provides methods and compositions for treating autoimmune diseases and other unwanted immune reactions comprising administering a copolymer that binds to one or more HLA-DQ molecules and modulates DQ-restricted T cell responses. The copolymers are random copolymers of amino acids and copolymers comprising anchor residues to facilitate binding to the DQ binding pockets.
摘要:
Compounds of formula (I), compositions, methods and kits are provided. The compounds and compositions may be particularly useful for modulating immunological responses. Formula (I) wherein, R1 is alkyl, aryl, or heterocyclyl; R2 is H, alkyl, aryl, heterocyclyl, OR3 or N(R3)2, R3 is H, alkyl, aryl, or heterocyclyl; R4 is H, CN, halogen, CF3, CO2R3, or C(O)N(R3)2; X is S, SO2, O, or NR3; and Y is S, O, or NR3.

摘要:
The present invention provides isolated peptides relating to the autoimmune diseases pemphigus vulgaris and multiple sclerosis. The peptides relating to pemphigus vulgaris are self epitopes and those relating to multiple sclerosis are foreign antigens derived from human pathogens which are implicated in the aetiology and remissions of the disease. Pharmaceutical preparations for tolerizing and/or immunizing individuals are provided as well as methods relating thereto. Methods are provided for identifying other self and non-self epitopes involved in human autoimmune disease and similar pharmaceutical preparations and methods of use for these epitopes are also provided.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to the field of immunology. In particular, the present invention is directed to the design, production, and use of monovalent, multivalent and multimeric Major Histocompatibility Complex binding domain fusion proteins and conjugates.
