    摘要: Described herein are MCAM antagonists, including MCAM antagonist antibodies capable of inhibiting the interaction between MCAM and it ligand, a laminin a4 chain, e.g., an ct4 chain of laminin 41 1. These MCAM antagonists, e.g., anti-MCAM antibodies, may be useful to treat neuroinflammatory conditions, for example, multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's disease, by inhibiting the infiltration of MCAM-expressing cells into the central nervous system (CNS), e.g., extravasation of TH 17 cells into the CNS.
