Therapeutic Efficacy of a Trichinella Spiralis Paramyosin-Derived Peptide Modified With a Membrane-Targeting Signal in Mice With Antigen-Induced Arthritis

Helminth-derived molecules have the ability to modulate the host immune system. Our previous study identified a tetradecapeptide derived from Trichinella spiralis paramyosin (Ts-pmy) that could bind to human complement component C9 to inhibit its polymerization, making the peptide a candidate therap...
