Abstract: The invention provides methods and compositions for exploiting the discovery that members of the small integrin-binding ligand, n-linked glycoproteins family termed SIBLINGS bind to complement Factor H, and moreover that SIBLINGS proteins, such as BSP, exist in relatively acidic forms. The methods provided can be used to detect SIBLINGS proteins in samples from subjects that are suspected of having tumors or abnormal bone turnover. The invention also provides methods of using SIBLINGS proteins to protect cells from complement mediated lysis. Finally, the discovery allows for the creation of specific binding agents that facilitate the detection of SIBLINGS proteins when they are associated with Factor H.

Abstract: Interaction of Rel proteins and steroid receptors is known to result in repression of target genes. Here we describe the discovery of a new mechanism in which Rel proteins and steroid receptors act synergistically to activate a regulatory element. This mechanism is shown to influence the expression of the brain-specific 5HT1A receptor wherein the estrogen receptor acts synergistically with the Nuclear Factor kappa B to enhance the activity of the promoter for the 5HT1A receptor gene. In addition, synergistic effects of Rel proteins with the mineralocorticoid receptor were observed, showing that synergism with Rel proteins may be expected for other steroid receptors as well. The synergism between Rel proteins and estrogen receptor or mineralocorticoid receptor provides a tool for the development of compounds that interact with the estrogen or mineralocorticoid receptor in such a way that only the synergistic effect is modulated whereas other effects are left intact. Such compounds would be invaluable for the development of medicaments for the treatment of diseases of the central nervous or cardiovascular system and other disorders in which Rel proteins play a role.
