    Abstract: The present invention relates to peptide antagonists that bind with high specificity and affinity to B-Lymphocyte stimulator (“BAFF”), thereby antagonizing BAFF receptor (“BAFF-R”) signaling. The invention more specifically relates to VNAR single chain antibodies derived from nurse shark that bind to BAFF, BAFF antagonist compounds and compositions comprising a BAFF specific VNAR binding moiety, methods for preparing them, diagnostic and therapeutic methods of use relating to in vitro or in vivo B cell depletion, e.g., to treat and/or prevent a pathological condition, disorder or disease in which it is beneficial to kill or deplete B cells, such as in autoimmune diseases including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or multiple sclerosis (MS), and in certain hematological cancers, including lymphomas, leukemias and myelomas.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to peptides that bind with high specificity and which functionally interact with the transferrin receptor (“TfR”) and which may be used in making molecular vehicles that carry biomolecules across membranes, including, e.g., across the blood brain barrier or the gastrointestinal tract. TfR specific binding moieties may also be used alone or as components in specific molecules that target the transferrin/transferrin receptor transport system. The invention relates more specifically to VNAR single chain antibodies derived from nurse shark that bind to TfR, compounds and compositions comprising a TfR specific VNAR binding moiety, methods for preparing them, diagnostic and therapeutic methods of use in vitro or in vivo, e.g., to diagnose, treat and/or prevent a pathological condition, disorder or disease in which it is beneficial to deliver a heterologous biomolecule across the blood brain barrier by association with a TfR specific VNAR binding moiety. Other uses for TfR specific VNAR binding moieties of the invention include, e.g., regulating the interaction of iron-charged transferrin with TfR (receptor cycling or cell surface presentation), such as may be therapeutic in treatment of certain cancer cells and tumors of various tissue types.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to the fields of molecular medicine and targeted delivery of therapeutic or diagnostic agents to cells outside the vascular system and into the parenchymal tissue of organs within the body. More specifically, the present invention relates to improved TfR-binding moieties capable of crossing the blood brain barrier (BBB) and capable of carrying and releasing cargo specifically targeted to the parenchymal tissue of the brain. The present invention relates to a transcytosis selection method to obtain VNARs against mammalian blood brain barrier (BBB) receptors using phage display libraries as well as against receptors found in other directional cell barrier systems like the gastrointestinal tract and other organs. The VNARs may be used alone or as components in compositions or as conjugates that target the particular receptor transport systems for delivery of therapeutics or diagnostics to the brain (in the case of BBB receptors) or other tissues.
