  • Publication number: 20130259799
    Abstract: Antigen binding proteins that bind to human GM-CSF protein are provided. Nucleic acids encoding the antigen binding protein, vectors, and cells encoding the same are also provided. The antigen binding proteins can inhibit binding of GM-CSF to GM-CSFR, inhibit GM-CSF-induced proliferation and signaling of myeloid lineage cell lines and inhibit GM-CSF-induced activation of human monocytes.
    Type: Application
    Filed: June 11, 2013
    Publication date: October 3, 2013
    Inventors: Jacqueline A. Kirchner, Kenneth A. Brasel, Kara Olson, Jose Carlos Escobar, Dauphine Barone

  • Patent number: 7150992
    Abstract: Flt3-ligand can be used to generate large numbers of dendritic cells from hematopoietic progenitor and stem cells. Flt3-ligand can be used to augment immune responses in vivo, and expand dendritic cells ex vivo. Such dendritic cells can then be used to present tumor, viral or other antigens to naive T cells, can be useful as vaccine adjuvants. When flt3-L is used and/or administered in combination with other reactive agents, e.g. CD40 binding proteins and 4-1BBL or antibodies reactive with 4-1BB, the combination further enhances immune responses and the effectiveness of vaccine adjuvants.
