ABSTRACT:
Therapeutic agents and methods for the treatment of immunologically mediated diseases and malignancies of myeloid cell or lymphoid cell origin. These particular methods utilize the characterization of particular activation mechanisms important to the progression of these pathologies in humans. Selective inhibition of cell types responsible for precipitating these disorders in humans are provided with therapeutic agents which include peptides capable of inhibiting dipeptidyl peptidase-I activation of proenzymes present primarily in cytotoxic T-cells and myeloid cells, such as Gly--Phe--CHN.sub.2. Antisense oligonucleotides are also characterized which are specific for human dipeptidyl peptidase-I gene which may be used in the treatment of the described disorders.
