    摘要: The present invention relates generally to compounds which modulate cytokine-dependent processes. More particularly, the compounds of the present invention modulate responses to a colony stimulating factor and even more particularly to granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) by modulating the levels of molecules which inhibit G-CSF such as but not limited to a suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) and in particular SOCS-3. The present invention further contemplates methods for regulating G-CSF-dependent processes by contacting cells in vitro with or administering to a subject a compound which up- or down-regulates the level of activity of G-CSF by modulating the level or activity of a SOCS molecule such as SOCS-3. The instant compounds are further useful for modulating a range of G-CSF-induced cellular responses including neutrophil recovery after chemotherapy or radiotherapy, mobilizing stem and progenitor cells, treating infection and treating inflammatory conditions.

    摘要: The present invention relates generally to a method for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of conditions arising from or otherwise associated with aberrations in hormone signalling. The present invention further provides an animal model useful for screening for agents capable of agonizing or antagonizing hormone signalling. More particularly, the present invention contemplates a method for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of conditions arising from or otherwise associated with aberrations in growth hormone signalling. The present invention further comprises a genetically modified animal. More particularly, the animals are genetically modified such that they have altered growth hormone signalling. The genetically modified animals of the present invention range from laboratory animals useful inter alia for animal models for studying hormone regulation and for the development of therapeutic protocols predicated, in part, on modulating hormone signalling to livestock animals. The latter may be manipulated for improved food production.
