Title:
METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS RELATED TO IRM COMPOUNDS AND TOLL-LIKE RECEPTOR 8
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004071459
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Methods of eliciting a TLR8-mediated cellular response are disclosed. Such methods include administration of either a TLR8 agonist or a TLR8 antagonist to an IRM-responsive cell so that the IRM compound affects at least one TLR8-mediate cellular signaling pathway. In some cases, the method may provide prophylactic or therapeutic treatment for a condition treatable by modulating a TLR8-mediated cellular pathway.
