ABSTRACT:
A novel endothelial cell molecule, VAP-1, is described that mediates lymphocyte binding in man. Further described are anti-VAP-1 monoclonal antibodies and methods for the diagnosis and treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases by the administration of VAP-1 binding compounds, such as anti-VAP-1 antibodies.
