ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to canine and feline B7 proteins; to B7 nucleic acid molecules, including those that encode such B7 proteins; to antibodies raised against such B7 proteins; and to therapeutic compounds that regulate B7 function. The present invention also includes methods to identify and obtain such proteins, nucleic acid molecules, antibodies, and inhibitory compounds. Also included in the present invention are therapeutic compositions comprising such proteins, nucleic acid molecules, antibodies and/or inhibitory compounds as well as the use of such therapeutic compositions to regulate an immune response in an animal.
