Members of the TGF-.beta. superfamily control many physiologic and pathophysiologic processes in multiple tissues and signal via type II and type I receptor serine kinases. Type II activin receptors are promiscuous and known to bind 12 TGF-.beta. ligands including activins, myostatin, BMPs and nodal. Methods are described for the screening and identification of antagonist for TGF-.beta. superfamily members, in particular activin-A antagonist.

L'invention concerne les membres de la superfamille du TGF-? destinés à réguler de nombreux processus physiologiques et pathophysiologiques dans de multiples tissus, et à assurer la signalisation via des sérines kinases de réception de type II et de type I. Les récepteurs d'activine de type II sont ubiquistes et sont connus pour leur liaison à 12 ligands du TGF-?, y compris les activines, la myostatine, les BMPs et nodal. L'invention concerne également des méthodes de criblage et d'identification d'antagonistes des membres de la superfamille de TGF-?, en particulier l'antagoniste de l'activine-A.
