Abstract
The invention features human CR3.alpha. recombinant or synthetic peptide capable of inhibiting a CR3-mediated immune response, a purified DNA encoding a human CR3.alpha. peptide, and a method of controlling any phagocyte-mediated tissue damage such as that associated with reduced perfusion of heart tissue during acute cardiac insufficiency. As used herein, a human CR3.alpha. recombinant peptide is a chain of amino acids derived from recombinant CR3.alpha.-encoding cDNA, or the corresponding synthetic DNA.
