In one aspect, the invention provides methods of inhibiting the effects of MASP-2-dependent complement activation in a living subject. The methods comprise the step of administering, to a subject in need thereof, an amount of a MASP-2 inhibitory agent effective to inhibit MASP-2-dependent complement activation. In some embodiments, the MASP-2 inhibitory agent inhibits cellular injury associated with MASP-2-mediated alternative complement pathway activation, while leaving the classical (Clq-dependent) pathway component of the immune system intact. In another aspect, the invention provides compositions for inhibiting the effects of lectin-dependent complement activation, comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a MASP-2 inhibitory agent and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

Dans un aspect de l'invention, l'invention concerne des procédés destinés à inhiber les effets de l'activation du complément dépendante de MASP-2 chez un patient en vie. Les procédés de l'invention comprennent une étape consistant à administrer à un sujet nécessitant ce traitement, une quantité efficace d'agent inhibiteur de MASP-2 pour inhiber l'activation du complément dépendante de MASP-2. Dans certains modes de réalisation de l'invention, l'agent inhibiteur de MASP-2 inhibe la lésion cellulaire associée à l'activation de la voie alternative du complément médiée par MASP-2, tout en laissant intact le constituant de la voie classique (dépendante de Clq) du système immunitaire. Dans un autre aspect, l'invention concerne des compositions destinées à inhiber les effets de l'activation du complément dépendante de la lectine. Ces compositions comprennent une quantité thérapeutiquement efficace d'un agent inhibiteur de MASP-2 et un vecteur pharmaceutiquement acceptable.
