Patent CA-2331607-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MOSSER DAVID M
IPC: A61K38/00
Filed: 1999-04-29
Abstract: Ligation of the Fc.gamma. receptor type I (Fc.gamma.RI) on IL-10-producing cells leads to a selective upregulation of IL-10 production, which in turn induces a marked suppression of IL-12 biosynthesis by IL-12-producing cells, particularly macrophages. The ligation of the Fc.gamma.RI receptor thus downmodulates IL-12 production via a mechanism that is dependent on macrophage-derived IL-10. Agents for ligating Fc.gamma.RI comprise, for example, multivalent antibodies which bind the Fc.gamma.RI  receptor, immune complexes comprising antibodies which contain the Fc region of IgG, and IgG multimers, preferably IgG dimers and trimers. The ligating agent may be administered to therapeutically inhibit proinflammatory immune responses. In particular, the ligating agent may be administered to treat or prevent endotoxic shock associated with bacterial endotoxemia, and to treating autoimmune disorders.
Patent CA-2332563-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CUMMINGS RICHARD D
IPC: C12N15/56
Filed: 1999-06-15
Abstract: A new class of synthetic glycosulfopeptides (GSPs) which have one or more sulfated tyrosine residues and a glycan linked to the peptide, the glycan preferably including a sialyl Lewisx group or a sialyl Lewisa group. In a preferred version the GSPs have an O-glycan comprising a .beta.1,6 linkage to a Ga1NAc. The present invention further contemplates in vitro methods of the synthesis of these GSPs without the use of the cells and methods of their use in vivo as powerful anti-inflammatory antithrombotic, or anti-metastatic compounds. The invention also contemplates a method of synthesizing oligosaccharides by cleaving the glycan from the GSP.
