Abstract: Compounds are provided that act as potent antagonists of the CCR9 receptor, and which have been further confirmed in animal testing for inflammation, one of the hallmark disease states for CCR9. The compounds are generally aryl sulfonamide derivatives and are useful in pharmaceutical compositions, methods for the treatment of CCR9-mediated diseases, and as controls in assays for the identification of CCR9 antagonists.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided herein for collecting CMV and/or CMV infected cells from a host infected with CMV. Such methods and apparatus have utility in tracking the dissemination or infection of the host, use as an in vivo or ex vivo collection mechanism to measure mutation rates and selective pressures after in vivo passage, and in therapeutic treatments in which CMV and/or CMV infected cells are removed from a host.
