    摘要: A method of modulating an immune response in a subject is disclosed. The invention is based on the discovery that an effective therapeutic strategy for ameliorating the inflammation-related symptoms of an immune-mediated disease, such as arthritis, can be achieved by modulation of the underlying immune response itself, rather than by merely addressing the resulting inflammation. This strategy can be used to regulate the inflammatory response and is applicable to a variety of contexts in which immune modulation is desired, such as mucosal tolerization, DNA vaccination, anergy induction, active immunization, and ex vivo modulation of antigen-specific T cells. In one embodiment, the method comprises administering to the subject a bacterial dnaJ peptide or a human homolog or a non-homologous human isoform thereof.

    摘要: Provided are HLA pan DR-binding peptides and methods of using such peptides to modulate, block, or inhibit immune responses to effect treatment of immune-mediated diseases and conditions, such as inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, cancer, and microbial infections. These peptides and methods are also useful diagnostically to screen peptide or peptide analogs that can inhibit the pathogenic immune response or up-regulate an immune response against aberrant or invading cells, to monitor efficacy for therapeutic treatments, and to identify other agents that may be effective to inhibit or otherwise modulate an immune response such as by altering T cell functional phenotype, and even more particularly by modulating the regulatory phenotype of regulatory T cells and/or inducing emergence of T cells with a different functional phenotype.

    摘要: The present invention concerns artificial antigen presenting cells (aAPCs) and methods of making and using the same, for example, to isolate, identify, and expand T cell populations specifically reactive against a disease-associated antigenic peptide, as well as to modulate responses of antigen-specific T cells both in vivo, ex vivo, and in vitro. Accordingly, the aAPCs of the invention can be used to treat conditions that would benefit from modulation of a T cell response, for example, autoimmune disorders, allergies, cancers, viral infections, and graft rejection. In certain preferred embodiments, the aAPCs are liposomes comprised of MHC:peptide complexes and accessory molecules. Other molecules, such as co-stimulatory molecules and adhesion molecules, can also be included in the compositions of the invention. In other embodiments, the aAPCs are comprised of a scaffold to which a plurality of MHC:peptide complexes and accessory molecules (as well as other molecules) can be attached at high density.

    摘要: The current invention provides for methods of immunotherapy using a combination of epitope-specific and cytokine or anticytokine immunotherapy. The method provides for modulation of pathogenic immune responses and includes the identification of molecules comprising specific epitopes involved in a particular disease state of interest, administration of the epitope-specific molecule in conjunction with the cytokine or anticytokine, and downstream modification of the administration of the cytokine/anticytokine relative to the administration of the epitope-specific molecule.
