Abstract
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for treating autoimmune, microbial, metabolic, neoplastic, and posttraumatic diseases mediated by inflammation in a subject. Compositions and methods including at least one importin beta-selective nuclear transport modifier (NTM) and/or at least one importin alpha-selective NTM, and/or at least one importin alpha-specific NTM, and/or at least one inhibitor of importin alpha and importin beta complex formation may be administered to a subject to modulate the transport of transcription factors, mediated by nuclear import adaptors, into the nucleus of a cell resulting in a decrease or abrogation of inflammation.
