Abstract

The invention provides antibodies that specifically bind to Kallidin or des-Arg10-Kallidin. The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions, as well as nucleic acids encoding anti-Kallidin or des-Arg10-Kallidin antibodies, recombinant expression vectors and host cells for making such antibodies, or fragments thereof. Methods of using antibodies of the invention to modulate Kallidin or des-Arg10-Kallidin activity or detect Kallidin or des-Arg10-Kallidin or, either in vitro or in vivo, are also provided by the invention. The invention further provides methods of making antibodies that specifically bind to des-Arg9-Bradykinin and des-Arg10-Kallidin-like peptide.
