Abstract excerpt
This is the first report on peptidic inhibitors of heme oxygenase. Such peptides were originally developed from the immunomodulatory peptide 2702.75-84 which corresponds to amino acid residues 75 to 84 of the alpha1-helix of HLA-B2702 (2702.75-84) and has been shown to be immunosuppressive in vit...
