Abstract

Methods for mediating immune coagulation using novel antibodies and compounds are described. A protein Fgl2 having direct prothrombinase activity has been identified. Inhibitors of Fgl2 are useful in preventing and treating diseases which require a reduction in immune coagulation including bacterial and viral infections, allograft and xenograft rejection, glomerulonephritis, cancer, a number of gastrointestinal diseases and fetal loss.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A composition for use in inhibiting fetal loss in an animal comprising a monoclonal antibody that binds to a human Fgl2 having the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ. ID. NO:2 and a suitable diluent or carrier.  
     
     
         2 . The composition according to  claim 1  wherein the antibody binds an epitope of human Fgl2 having the amino acids sequence DRYPSGNCGLYYSSG (SEQ. ID. NO:18).  
     
     
         3 . A composition for use in inhibiting intestinal transplants and xenogeneic hyperacute liver failure in an animal comprising a monoclonal antibody that binds to a human Fgl2 having the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ. ID. NO:2 and a suitable diluent or carrier.  
     
     
         4 . The composition according to  claim 3  wherein the antibody binds an epitope of human Fgl2 having the amino acid sequence DRYPSGNCGLYYSSG (SEQ. ID. NO:18).
