Abstract
The activity of growth-associated receptors is modulated in vivo in a controlled and reproducible fashion by immunizing animals against target growth-associated receptors. This is accomplished by the use of immunogens predetermined to induce primarily agonist or antagonist responses. The immunogens include anti-ligand antibodies and receptor derivatives.
