摘要:
The present invention is based upon methods of treating inflammatory conditions in the intestinal tract of mammals using growth factor related polypeptides. The invention includes methods of reducing the mortality rate or delaying mortality in a subject suffering from an inflammatory pathology. Methods of using fibroblast growth factor-CX (FGF-CX) polynucleotides sequences and the FGF-CX polypeptides encoded by such nucleic acid sequence, or variants, fragments and homologs thereof, are claimed in the invention. Similarly, methods of using FCTRX polynucleotide sequences and the FCTRX polypeptides encoded by such nucleic acid sequences, or variants, fragments and homologs thereof, alone or in combination, are also claimed in the invention. FCTRX collectively refers to any of six variant FCTRX sequences, variously designated FCTR1, FCTR2, FCTR3, FCTR4, FCTR5 and FCTR6.
摘要:
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for preventing and treating a disease (e.g., a joint disease, ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, trauma, spinal cord damage, heavy metal or toxin poisoning, or neurodegenerative diseases). More particularly, the present invention provides methods for preventing and/or treating a disease (e.g., a joint disease, ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, trauma, spinal cord damage, heavy metal or toxin poisoning, or neurodegenerative diseases) by using compositions comprising FGF-20, a fragment, a derivative, a variant, a homolog, or an analog thereof.
摘要:
The present invention provides FGF-CX polypeptides and polynucleotides, and antibodies that immunospecifically bind to FGF-CX or any derivative, variant, mutant, or fragment of the FGF-CX polypeptide, polynucleotide or antibody. The invention additionally provides methods of use for the FGF-CX polypeptide, polynucleotide and antibody.
摘要:
The present invention provides FGF-CX, a novel isolated polypeptide, as well as a polynucleotide encoding FGF-CX and antibodies that immunospecifically bind to FGF-CX or any derivative, variant, mutant, or fragment of the FGF-CX polypeptide, polynucleotide or antibody. The invention additionally provides methods in which the FGF-CX polypeptide, polynucleotide and antibody are used in detection and treatment of a broad range of pathological states, as well as other uses.
摘要:
Potent neutralizing monoclonal antibodies to the human .alpha. PDGF receptor (.alpha. PDGFR) and fragments thereof are described. These monoclonal antibodies specifically bind to an epitope on .alpha. PDGFR, inhibits PDGF binding with PDGF, antagonizes PDGF, and does not bind .beta. PDGFR receptor. A hybridoma cell line producing such a monoclonal antibody, methods of in vivo imaging of a pathological conditions and methods of inhibiting the growth of a neoplasia expressing .alpha. PDGFR, which use these monoclonal antibodies are also described. In vitro assays for detecting the presence of .alpha. PDGFR and for evaluating the binding affinity of a test compound are also described.
