Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9909206A1] A method for determining if an animal is at risk for a disease resulting in abnormal apoptosis is described. An animal is provided and an aspect of metabolism or structure of a serine protease, e.g., a granzyme, or a serine protease binding molecule in the animal is evaluated. An abnormality in the aspect of the metabolism or structure is diagnostic of being at risk for a disease resulting in abnormal apoptosis. Also described are methods for evaluating an agent for use in modulating apoptosis, methods for effecting or inhibiting apoptosis in a cell, and methods for treating unwanted cell or infectious particle proliferation or treating an autoimmune disease or a transplant graft rejection in an animal. Pharmaceutical compositions are also provided.
