ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a recombinant or synthetic receptor or a derivative thereof, for granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). The GM-CSF receptor is useful, inter alia, in the treatment or diagnosis of GM-CSF-related diseases, and in the screening of agonists and antagonists of GM-CSF receptors. The invention further provides antibodies directed against GM-CSF receptor or derivatives thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising either the GM-CSF receptor, the receptor derivative, or an antibody thereto, and methods of using thereof.
