How LM-609 works
LM-609 targets the alpha-v beta-3 integrin, which is a protein complex expressed on the surface of newly forming blood vessels, certain tumor types, and on a number of other cell types, including macrophages and osteoclasts. As such, alpha-v beta-3 integrin is implicated in a number of disease processes, including the growth and metastasis of tumors, the bone destruction in RA and the inflammatory process in psoriasis.
