Abstract

Abstract A group of relatively low molecular weight polypeptides having from 3 to 10 amino acids block the allergic response. These "blocking" polypeptides have amino acid sequences corresponding to amino acid sequences appearing in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th domains of the epsilon chain of IgE. Certain derivatives of such polypeptides also exhibit "blocking" activity. Specific active "blocking" polypeptides are disclosed and the synthesis and use thereof are described.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim 61 words
A method for blocking the mammalian allergic reaction which method comprises administering to a host subject in an effective amount of a polypeptide comprising from 3-10 amino acids in sequence, said sequence selected from a portion of the amino acid sequence 265-537 of the Fc region of Immunoglobulin E, or the polypeptide Asp-Thr-Glu-Ala-Arg, or a pharmacologically acceptable salt or derivative thereof.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 61 words
A method for blocking the mammalian allergic reaction which method comprises administering to a host subject in an effective amount of a polypeptide comprising from 3-10 amino acids in sequence, said sequence selected from a portion of the amino acid sequence 265-537 of the Fc region of Immunoglobulin E, or the polypeptide Asp-Thr-Glu-Ala-Arg, or a pharmacologically acceptable salt or derivative thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 10 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the polypeptide is Asp-Ser-Asp-Pro-Arg.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 10 words
