Abstract:
The invention provides HVEM cis complexes which include, for example, HVEM/BTLA, HVEM/CD160 and HVEM/gD cis complexes. The invention provides ligands and agents that bind to HVEM cis complexes, such as antibodies. The invention further provides methods of use of the HVEM cis complexes, and the ligands and agents (e.g., antibodies) that bind to the HVEM cis complexes.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the use of viral vectors able to stably integrate into the genome of thymic stromal cells, or of intrathymic lymphocytes or lymphocytes precursors, for the manufacture of a medicine intended for intrathymic administration in the frame of the prevention or treatment of genetic immunodeficiencies, acquired immunodeficiencies, or for the induction of immune tolerance of the organism to self or non-self gene products, cells or tissues, or for the prevention or treatment of autoimmune diseases.
