Abstract:
The present invention provides a polypeptide construct comprising a peptide or polypeptide signaling ligand linked to an antibody or antigen binding portion thereof which binds to a cell surface-associated antigen, wherein the ligand comprises at least one amino acid substitution or deletion which reduces its potency on cells lacking expression of said antigen.
Abstract:
A molecule or molecule complex capable of binding to TLR9 and to CD32 comprising at least one epitope of at least one antigen, its production and its use a medicament, especially for the treatment of allergies.
Abstract:
Peptides that specifically bind erythrocytes are described. These are provided as peptidic ligands having sequences that specifically bind, or as antibodies or fragments thereof that provide specific binding, to erythrocytes. The peptides may be prepared as molecular fusions with therapeutic agents, tolerizing antigens, or targeting peptides. Immunotolerance may be created by use of the fusions and choice of an antigen on a substance for which tolerance is desired.
Abstract:
In a first aspect, the present invention relates to genetically modified T-cells having a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) in a method for adoptive cell therapy for treating TOSO+ cancer, like B-cell leukemia/lymphoma, in a subject in need thereof. In particular, the present invention relates to a genetically engineered T-cell containing and expressing a specific chimeric antigen receptor being toxic to TOSO+ cancer cells while being less toxic or non-toxic to TOSO+ non-cancer cells, in particular, being non-toxic to normal B cells and its precursors. In a further aspect, the present invention relates to a specific chimeric antigen receptor and the nucleic acid molecule encoding the same as well as vectors and cells containing the same.

Abstract:
The present invention provides compositions and methods for treating cancer in a human. The invention includes relates to administering a genetically modified T cell to express a CAR wherein the CAR comprises an antigen binding domain, a transmembrane domain, a costimulatory signaling region, and a CD3 zeta signaling domain.
Abstract:
The present invention provides compositions and methods of use of anti-IGF-1R antibodies or antibody fragments. Preferably the antibodies bind to IGF-1R but not IR; are not agonists for IGF-1R; do not block binding of IGF-1 or IGF-2 to isolated IGF-1R, but effectively neutralize activation of IGF-1R by IGF-1 in intact cells; and block binding of an R1 antibody to IGF-1R. The antibodies may be murine, chimeric, humanized or human R1 antibodies comprising the heavy chain CDR sequences DYYMY (SEQ ID NO:1), YITNYGGSTYYPDTVKG (SEQ ID NO:2) and QSNYDYDGWFAY (SEQ ID NO:3) and the light chain CDR sequences KASQEVGTAVA (SEQ ID NO:4), WASTRHT (SEQ ID NO:5) and QQYSNYPLT (SEQ ID NO:6). Preferably the antibodies bind to an epitope of IGF-1R comprising the first half of the cysteine-rich domain of IGF-1R (residues 151-222). The anti-IGF-1R antibodies may be used for diagnosis or therapy of various diseases such as cancer.
Abstract translation:本发明提供使用抗IGF-1R抗体或抗体片段的组合物和方法。 优选地,抗体结合IGF-1R但不结合IR; 不是IGF-1R的激动剂; 不阻断IGF-1或IGF-2与分离的IGF-1R的结合,而是有效地中和IGF-1在完整细胞中的活化; 并阻断R1抗体与IGF-1R的结合。 抗体可以是包含重链CDR序列DYYMY(SEQ ID NO:1),YITNYGGSTYYPDTVKG(SEQ ID NO:2)和QSNYDYDGWFAY(SEQ ID NO:3)的鼠,嵌合,人源化或人R 1抗体和轻链CDR 序列KASQEVGTAVA(SEQ ID NO:4),WASTRHT(SEQ ID NO:5)和QQYSNYPLT(SEQ ID NO:6)。 优选地,抗体结合包含IGF-1R富含半胱氨酸结构域的前半部分(残基151-222)的IGF-1R的表位。 抗IGF-1R抗体可用于各种疾病如癌症的诊断或治疗。

Also disclosed are methods of treating cancer, inhibiting the progression of cancer, preventing cancer metastasis, and delivering a therapeutic compound to the brain in a subject in need thereof, the methods comprising identifying a subject in need thereof; providing a composition comprising the drug delivery molecule as disclosed herein; and administering an effective amount of the composition to the subject.
Abstract:
The invention discloses a method of manufacturing a lysin protein capable of directly lysing Acinetobacter baumannii without pretreatment processing using chloroform or EDTA, comprising: transforming an expression plasmid into E. coli, wherein the expression plasmid is deposited at DSMA-Deutsche Sammlung von Mikroorganismen and Zellkulturen with deposit number DSM32023; expressing the expressing plasmid by the E. coli to form lysin protein having an amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 6; lysing the E. coli containing the lysing protein to obtain a supernatant by centrifugating the E. coli lysate; mixing the supernatant and Ni2+ resins, washing the unbound protein by a binding buffer containing 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.2), 15 mM MgCl2, 20% (v/v) glycerol, 0.05% β-ME and 0.1 mM PMSF; and eluting the purified lysing protein by an elution buffer containing 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.2), 15 mM MgCl2, 20% (v/v) glycerol, 0.05% β-ME, 0.1 mM PMSF and 250 mM imidazole.
