  • Publication number: 20080247945
    Abstract: The present invention relates to blocking the activity of IL-20 polypeptide molecules. IL-20 is a cytokine that is involved in inflammatory processes and human disease. IL-20RA/IL-20RB is a common receptor for IL-20. The present invention includes anti-IL-20 antibodies and binding partners, as well as methods for antagonizing IL-20 using such antibodies and binding partners.

  • Patent number: 7381794
    Abstract: Polypeptide fusions, dimeric fusion proteins, and materials and methods for making them are disclosed. One of the polypeptide fusions consists of a non-immunoglobulin polypeptide, a polypeptide linker, a dimerizing domain, and, optionally, a linking polypeptide. Another of the polypeptide fusions consists of a non-immunoglobulin polypeptide, a polypeptide linker, and a second dimerizing domain.

  • Publication number: 20040209330
    Abstract: The present invention relates to blocking, inhibiting, reduceing, antagonizing or neutralizing the activity of IL-22, IL-20, or both IL-20 and IL-22 polypeptide molecules. IL-20 and IL-22 are cytokines that are involved in inflammatory processes and human disease. IL-22RA (zcytor11) is a common receptor for IL-20 and IL-22. The present invention includes anti-IL-22RA antibodies and binding partners, as well as methods for antagonizing IL-22 or both IL-20 and IL-22 using such antibodies and binding partners.

  • Publication number: 20020082224
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods for delivering a gene delivery vehicle to a warm-blooded animal, comprising the step of administering to a warm-blooded animal a gene delivery vehicle which directs the expression of a non-immunogenic selectable marker. Within other aspects, methods are provided for delivering a gene delivery vehicle to a warm-blooded animal, comprising the step of administering to a warm-blooded animal a gene delivery vehicle which directs the expression of a non-immunogenic molecule which is capable of activating an otherwise inactive compound into an active compound.
