Described are agents and methods for modulating an immune response. More particularly, described are various agents and methods for selectively regulating expression of the gene Il12b in live animals, including human patients. Aberrant expression of Il12b is associated with autoinflammatory diseases including psoriasis, chronic eczema, vitiligo, lichen planus, systemic lupus erythematosus, Behet's disease, and alopecia. Selective modulation of Il12b offers a new avenue for treatment of such diseases.

The present invention relates to a method for reducing the production of methane emanating from the digestive activities of a ruminant and/or for improving ruminant animal performance by using, as active compound at least one organic molecule substituted at any position with at least one nitrooxy group, or a salt thereof, which is administrated to the animal together with the feed. The invention also relates to the use of these compounds in feed and feed additives such as premix, concentrates and total mixed ration (TMR) or in the form of a bolus.
