摘要:
The present invention relates generally to the field of immunomodulation. Taught herein is an agent for inhibiting immunostimulation mediated by a Toll-like receptor useful in the treatment of viral and microbial pathogenesis, diseases involving elements of autoimmunity and inflammation as well as cancer. The agent antagonizes disulfide bond formation between C98 and C475 of Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) thereby preventing TLR7 activation. Pharmaceutical compositions are also enabled herein.
