  • Publication number: 20080254023
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of treating disorders of the nervous system and more particularly disorders associated with a gliotic response and/or an inflammatory response within the central nervous system and to therapeutic agents useful for same. More particularly, the present invention involves a method of preventing or reducing the amount of Eph receptor-mediated gliosis and/or glial scarring and/or inflammation and/or Eph receptor-mediated inhibition of axonal growth which occurs during and/or after disease or injury to the nervous system. The present invention also facilitates the identification of therapeutic agents which modulate Eph receptor-mediated signaling. The method and therapeutic agents of the present invention are useful for treating a range of nervous system diseases, conditions and injuries including, inter alia, paralysis induced by physiological-, pathological- or trauma-induced injury to the brain or spinal cord.

  • Patent number: 7192576
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a biologically active complex comprising at least two heterologous molecules. More particularly, the biologically active complex of the present invention comprises at least two polypeptides or parts, fragments, truncates or protease-activated forms of one or more of the polypeptides wherein the complex alone or in association with a receptor, ligand or other molecule facilitates proliferation, differentiation and/or survival of a cell. The identification of the biologically active complex of the present invention permits the assay for agonists and antagonists of the formation of the biologically active complex as well as therapeutic and diagnostic reagents based on the biologically active complex or interaction between the biologically active complex and a receptor, ligand or other molecule.
