  • Patent number: 7741292
    Abstract: A method of inhibiting the emigration of cells from the intravascular compartment into tissues (or through any membrane limiting any body compartment from another) by confronting the cells with an agonist specific for receptors involved with migration of said cells via a receptor thereby making the cell unresponsive to further activation.

  • Publication number: 20030186889
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the provision of a medicament and of a diagnostic agent obtained by proteome analysis, preferably containing at least two different chemokine receptor ligands or chemokine receptor antibodies, and further to the use of at least two different chemokine receptor ligands, chemokine receptor antibodies and/or two different chemokine receptors. As inhibitors, the medicament preferably contains ligands or antibodies of at least two chemokine receptors or the related algorithms of the surface chemokine receptor proteome, and the use of at least one chemokine receptor ligand and/or chemokine receptor, peptides and antibodies and their use for the diagnostics and therapy of tumor diseases and inflammatory diseases. By way of analogy, clusters of analyzed tumor cell surface proteomes, such as ectoproteases, adhesion molecules or various receptor types, can also be used.
