Abstract excerpt
Previous studies from this laboratory have described Sch 24937 as a potent immunosuppressive agent that is particularly effective in suppressing humoral immune responses in mice. These findings prompted an evaluation of the effects of Sch 24937 in type II collagen-induced arthritis in mice where disease manifestations include the development of a strong humoral response to the collagen antigen. Sch 24937 reduced...
