摘要:
GDNFR.alpha., GDNFR.alpha. extracellular domain (ECD), GDNFR.alpha. variants,chimeric GDNFR.alpha. (e.g.,GDNFR.alpha. immunoadhesin), and antibodies which bind thereto (includingagonist and neutralizing antibodies)are disclosed. Various uses for these molecules are described, includingmethods to modulate cell activity andsurvival by response to GDNFR.alpha. -ligands, for example GDNF, by providingGDNFR.alpha. to the cell. Alsoprovided are methods for using GDNFR.alpha., GDNF, or agonists thereof,separately or in complex, to treat kidneydiseases.
