| abstract |
This invention relates to compositions and methods that modulate the movement of cells with migratory capacity. More specifically, the invention relates to compositions and methods for promoting migratory movement, fugetaxis, of cells from a specific site in a subject. The foregoing are useful, inter alia, in the treatment of conditions characterized by a need to promote migratory cell movement away from specific sites in a subject. Specific sites include sites of inflammation, infection, an autoimmune reaction, a tumor and a transplanted organ or tissue. |
