Abstract:
Antibody libraries comprising a plurality of heavy chain variable domains and/or a plurality of light chain variable domains, which comprise complementary determining regions (CDRs) found in naturally-occurring human antibodies, and methods of making such antibody libraries. The antibody libraries are free of members that comprise one or more liabilities affecting one or more features of such members. Further, the antibody libraries comprise members having heavy chain and/or light chain CDRs not found in the same naturally-occurring human antibody.

Abstract:
Methods and devices for diagnosing, monitoring, or determining obstructive uropathy or an associated disorder in a mammal are described. In particular, methods and devices for diagnosing, monitoring, or determining obstructive uropathy or an associated disorder using measured concentrations of a combination of three or more analytes in a test sample taken from the mammal are described.

Abstract:
Provided are methods for the detection and diagnosis of sickle cell. The methods are based on the discovery that abnormal levels of selected analytes in sample fluid, typically blood samples, of patients who are at risk are supportive of a diagnosis of sickle cell. At least two new biomarkers for sickle cell are thus disclosed, Eotaxin and Monocyte Chemotactic Protein-1. Altogether the concentrations of eleven analytes provide a sensitive and selective picture of the patient's condition, namely, whether the patient is suffering from sickle cell. Other important biomarkers for sickle cell are described, including but not limited to IL-12p40, SHBG, MMP-9, Adiponectin, Haptoglobin, FGF basic, IgM, Growth Hormone, Factor VII. Kits containing reagents to assist in the analysis of fluid samples are also described.
Abstract:
Provided are methods for the detection and diagnosis of Hypothyroidism. The methods are based on the discovery that altered levels of selected analytes in sample fluid, typically blood samples, of patients are supportive of a diagnosis of Hypothyroidism. At least twenty-four new biomarkers for hypothyroidism are thus disclosed (singly or in any combination), Thyroid Stimulating Hormone, Interleukin-12p40, Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha, Tissue Factor, Interleukin-15, Insulin, Immunoglobulin E, Growth Stimulating Hormone, Calcitonin, Prostate-Specific Antigen, Interleukin-4, Granulocyte Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor, Matrix Metalloproteinase 9, Lymphotactin, Fatty Acid Binding Protein, Alpha Fetoprotein, Alpha-2 Macroglobulin, Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase, Matrix Metalloproteinase 3, Cancer Antigen 125, Mumps Antibody, Double Stranded DNA Antibody, Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen Antibody, Smith Antibody, or Herpes Simplex Virus 1 Glycoprotein D Antibody. Altogether the concentrations of one or more of these analytes, as well as Thyroid Stimulating Hormone, or any combination thereof, provide a sensitive and selective picture of the patient's condition, namely, whether the patient is suffering from Hypothyroidism. Kits containing reagents to assist in the analysis of fluid samples are also described.

Abstract:
Methods and devices for predicting, diagnosing, monitoring, or determining Alzheimer's disease in a human are described. In particular, methods and devices for predicting diagnosing, monitoring, or determining AD using measured concentrations of a combination of three or more analytes in a test sample taken from the human are described.
Abstract:
Methods and devices for diagnosing, monitoring, or determining kidney transplant rejection or an associated disorder in a mammal are described. In particular, methods and devices for diagnosing, monitoring, or determining kidney transplant rejection or an associated disorder using measured concentrations of a combination of three or more analytes in a test sample taken from the mammal are described.
