    摘要: The present invention provides methods and compositions designed for the treatment, management, and/or amelioration of an infection, in particular an intracellular pathogen infection, such as a viral, bacterial, protozoa or fungal infection. In particular, the present invention provides methods for treating, managing, preventing and/or ameliorating an infection where the expression of EphA2 is upregulated in infected cells (e.g., infected epithelial cells), said methods comprising administering to a subject an effective amount of one or more EphA2/EphrinA1 Modulators. In accordance with the present invention, such methods may also comprise the administration of one or more therapies other than an EphA2/EphrinA1 Modulator. The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising EphA2/EphrinA1 Modulators, and optionally, one or more prophylactic or therapeutic agents other than an EphA2/EphrinA1 Modulator, and the use of such compositions in the treating, management, prevention and/or amelioration of an infection. Further provided by the invention are articles of manufacture and kits comprising an EphA2/EphrinA1 Modulator of the invention, and, optionally, other prophylactic or therapeutic agents (e.g., immunomodulatory agents, anti-viral agents, anti-inflammatory agents, anti-bacterial agents, anti-fungal agents, etc.).

    摘要: XMRV appears to be related to both prostate cancer if it infects a male germ cell and chronic fatigue syndrome in both sexes. (If the virus does not infect a germ cell). Prostate cancer cells exhibit TSG101 on the surface only upon infection with a virus like XMRV. Antibodies to TSG101 can be effective diagnostics to identify individuals with a predisposition to prostate. They can also be used in place of current diagnostics to confirm the presence of prostate cancer. TSG101 antibodies, when administered in vivo, exhibit the ability to reduce tumor size, suppress metastatic transformation and extend survival.
