摘要:
The present invention relates to intercellular adhesion molecules (ICAM-1) which are involved in the process through which lymphocytes recognize and migrate to sites of inflammation as well as attach to cellular substrates during inflammation. The invention is directed toward such molecules, screening assays for identifying such molecules and antibodies capable of binding such molecules. The invention also includes uses for adhesion molecules and for the antibodies that are capable of binding them.
摘要:
Pharmaceutical compositions comprising antibodies to intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1 or CD54) are useful in methods of decreasing the severity of inflammation associated with the adhesion of leukocytes to cells bearing ICAM-1. Treatment with anti-ICAM-1 antibodies reduced the severity of inflammation associated with acute organ or tissue rejection and prolonged allograft survival time. Such compositions may optionally contain other immunsuppressive agents.

摘要:
A method for the detection of the presence of inflammation in a patient by measuring the amount of circulating intercellular adhesion molecule (cICAM-1) in a sample of one or more bodily fluids of the patient and then comparing the amount of cICAM-1 in the sample to standards normal for the bodily fluid or fluids assayed. The amount of cICAM-1 can be measured using anti-ICAM-1 antibodies. Higher than normal amounts of cICAM-1 indicate the presence of inflammation. Also contemplated is a method for the detection of organ transplant or tissue graft rejection.
