Patent number: 5902584Abstract: The invention relates to a composition comprising antibodies or binding portions thereof which bind to a naturally occurring or recombinant G-CSF receptor extracellular domain, and reduce tyrosine phosphorylation of a JAK molecule. The invention also relates to methods of using this composition for inhibiting or decreasing tyrosine phosphorylation of a JAK kinase and for inhibiting or decreasing G-CSF interaction with its receptor. Also described are antibodies which bind to a G-CSF receptor extracellular domain and which are produced by immunizing an animal with cells transfected with DNA encoding a G-CSF receptor.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 1997Date of Patent: May 11, 1999Assignee: Ludwig Institute for Cancer ResearchInventors: Sandra E.
