Abstract: Use of a compound (I) that binds to a C-type lectin (II) on the surface of a dendritic cell (DC) for producing a composition for modulating (especially reducing) the immune response in an animal (particularly human or other mammal), provided that (II) is not the DEC-205 receptor. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) an antibody (Ab), preferably monoclonal, directed against a C-type lectin (IIa) having a fully defined sequence of about 400 amino acids (given in the specification) or its natural variants, equivalents, parts, fragments or epitopes; (2) a pharmaceutical composition containing Ab and at least one carrier, excipient, adjuvant or auxiliary; (3) a combination of (I) attached to an antigen (Ag) or its fragment; (4) a method for producing, isolating and/or purifying DC from a biological sample or culture medium; and (5) DC prepared by method in (4). ACTIVITY : Immunosuppressant; immunostimulant; anti-allergic; antiviral; antitumor; antibacterial; antiprotozoal. MECHANISM OF ACTION : (I) mediates adhesion between DC and other cells by inhibiting interaction between (II) and (i) an ICAM (intracellular adhesion molecule) on T cells or (ii) gp 120 on HIV (human immune deficiency virus)-infected cells. A new (II), DC-SIGN, is not only involved in DC-T cell clumping but is also a major HIV receptor. Cells of the leukemia line K562 were transfected to express ICAM-3 and tested for binding to DC. Clumping between the cells was inhibited by antibodies directed against DC-SIGN, and DC-mediated T cell proliferation was then only about 1/3 of that in an antibody-free medium. The effect was greatly increased when anti-LFA3 antibodies were additionally present (practically no proliferation).

Abstract: A novel virtual port method and apparatus for use in the communication between multiple nodes in a network system is disclosed. Particularly, the virtual port concept is implemented in a switching unit having a plurality of physical ports. According to the present invention, at least one virtual port can be defined by the user to represent a corresponding number of group of physical ports. In this case, a single virtual port identification can be used by the network manager to identify all the physical ports belonging to a trunking group. By using one virtual port identification address instead of a group of physical port addresses, a tremendous reduction in processing overhead in the network manager can be achieved.
