| 20100121030 | ANTAGONISM OR EVASION OF SOLUBLE CYTOKINE RECEPTORS - Herein is described a system to combat poxvirus infection wherein antagonists are developed that bind the soluble cytokine receptor but have no significant biological activity in the host, effectively blocking the virus-mediated suppressor of interferon function, thereby permitting the host's own cytokines to stimulate an antiviral response.
