Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods of treating or preventing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) using compounds that bind to CD131 and neutralize signaling by IL-3, IL-5 and GM-CSF. The present disclosure also relates to compounds for use in the treatment or prevention of ARDS, as well as the use of such compounds in the manufacture of medicaments for the treatment or prevention of ARDS.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods of treating or preventing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) using compounds that inhibit G-CSF signaling. The present disclosure also relates to compounds for use in the treatment or prevention of ARDS, as well as the use of such compounds in the manufacture of medicaments for the treatment or prevention of ARDS.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a method for the treatment and prophylaxis of inflammatory conditions. The present invention is predicated in part on the identification of cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage being critical for inflammation and, in particular, chronic inflammation. In accordance with the present invention, it is proposed that the reduction in levels of monocyte/macrophage-type cells and/or a reduction in the production of inflammatory and pro-inflammatory mediators by these cells, especially locally, is effective in reducing inflammatory conditions. The present invention further provides animal models useful for screening for reducing levels of monocyte/macrophage-type cells and/or reducing the production of inflammatory and pro-inflammatory mediators of these cells.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the use of antagonists of G-CSF, and/or its receptor (G-CSFR) in the treatment of uveitis. The present invention contemplates, therefore, the inhibition of G-CSF or G-CSFR systemically or locally and/or the down-regulation of expression of a G-CSF or G-CSFR in the treatment of uveitis.
