ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to methods of producing and/or isolating MBL compositions. In particular the invention relates to methods of producing and/or isolating novel recombinant human MBL preparations with high similarity to natural human MBL. The MBL preparations may be used in compositions, medicaments and in methods for treatment of conditions such as those related to immunosuppressive conditions and/or to conditions of MBL deficiencies including latent conditions. Conditions of deficiencies of Mannan-Binding Lectin (MBL) are associated with increased susceptibility to infections.
