Abstract:
The compositions and methods provide herein include, inter alia, antibodies attached to single-stranded oligoribonucleotides. Two antibodies are capable of forming complexes in vivo through hybridization of the respective complementary oligoribonucleotides they are bound to. For example, a first antibody bound to a first oligoribonucleotide through a first chemical linker may be administered to a subject, bind to a cell surface antigen in vivo and subsequently form an antibody complex in vivo with a second antibody bound to a second oligoribonucleotide through a second chemical linker, through complementary base-pairing between the first and the second oligoribonucleotide. The compositions and methods provided herein are, inter alia, useful for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, for example, the treatment of cancer or autoimmune disease.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods for treating a subject having a carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)-positive tumor using a conditioning regimen (lymphodepleting treatment), which comprises administering one or more doses of a lymphodepleting agent to a subject, and a treatment regimen, which comprises administrating one or more doses of the anti-CEA CAR T cells and/or the ICK proteins to the subject.

Abstract:
A thio-selective radioactive labeling agent has the following general formula: *R-L-VS, wherein said *R is a radioisotope, L is a linking group, and VS is a vinylsulfone functional group.
Abstract:
The present invention provides recombinant antibody fragments which include a variable domain which has been modified by the addition of a tail sequence to its C-terminal end. The tail sequence comprises a terminal cysteine residue and an amino acid spacer and does not substantially affect the fragment's target-binding affinity. The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising the described antibody fragments and a pharmaceutically acceptable ⋅ carrier and methods of delivering an agent to cells of interest in a subject using the fragments as delivery vehicles. The invention further provides compositions comprising the described antibody fragments for the in vitro detection and measurement of target molecules which bind to the fragments and method of determining the presence or amount of such targets in a biological sample by contacting the sample with such compositions.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a monocyte derived bone-forming cell population is provided. In one embodiment, the cell population comprises an isolated monocyte cell population treated with an effective dose of LL-37. In another embodiment, a method of producing a population of monocyte-derived bone-forming cells is provided. The method comprises obtaining a blood sample from a subject; isolating a population of monocytes from the blood sample; treating the isolated monocytes with an effective dose of LL-37; and culturing the LL-37 treated monocytes until they differentiate into the population of monocyte-derived bone-forming cells. In another embodiment, a method of treatment for a bone injury or bone disease is provided. The method comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of a composition to a subject having the bone injury or disease, the composition comprising a population of monoosteophils.
