Methods of identifying compounds that modulate IL-4 receptor-mediated IgE synthesis utilizing a thioredoxin-like 32 kDa protein

摘要

The present provides compounds capable of modulating IL-4 receptor-mediated IgE production, as well as IL-4 induced processes associated therewith, methods and kits for identifying such compounds that utilize a thioredoxin-like 32 kDa protein (TXNL) as a surrogate analyte and methods of using the compounds in a variety of in vitro, in vitro and ex vivo contexts.
