摘要:
The invention provides peptides that bind Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor (TFPI), including TFPI-inhibitory peptides, and compositions thereof. The peptides may be used to inhibit a TFPI, enhance thrombin formation in a clotting factor-deficient subject, increase blood clot formation in a subject, and/or treat a blood coagulation disorder in a subject.
摘要:
The present invention is related to peptides that can be used to reduce the immune response against FVIII or to induce tolerance to human FVIII in patients with, e.g., hemophilia A. Furthermore, the peptides can be used for immunodiagnostic purposes to detect FVIII- specific CD4 + T cells to monitor patients with hemophilia A during replacement therapy and during immune tolerance induction therapy.

The present invention pertains to anti-MIF antibodies, in particular their use in combination with glucocorticoids, in the treatment of glycocorticoid receptive diseases.
摘要:
The present invention relates to recombinant viral vectors and methods of using the recombinant viral vectors to induce an immune response to yellow fever virus. The invention provides recombinant viral vectors based on the non-replicating modified vaccinia virus Ankara or based on a D4R-defective vaccinia virus. When administered according to methods of the invention, the recombinant viral vectors induce a broad immune response to yellow fever virus and demonstrate an excellent safety profile.

The invention provides peptides that bind Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor (TFPI), including TFPI-inhibitory peptides, and compositions thereof. The peptides may be used to inhibit a TFPI, enhance thrombin formation in a clotting factor-deficient subject, increase blood clot formation in a subject, treat a blood coagulation disorder in a subject, purify TFPI, and identify a TFPI-binding compound.
摘要:
Aspects of the invention include methods for enhancing blood coagulation in a subject. In practicing methods according to certain embodiments, an amount of a non-anticoagulant sulfated polysaccharide (NASP) is administered to a subject to enhance blood coagulation in the subject. Also provided are methods for preparing a NASP composition having blood coagulation enhancing activity. Compositions and kits for practicing methods of the invention are also described.
摘要:
The present invention provides analytical methods for detecting anti- polymer antibody in an individual. The methods involve contacting a sample from the individual with a water soluble polymer-modified carrier and detecting binding of antibody to the water soluble polymer on the water soluble polymer-modified carrier wherein binding is indicative of the presence of antibody to the water polymer-modified polypeptide. Antibody may be detected to water soluble polymers such as polyethylene glycol, polysialic acid, dextran, hydroxyalkyl starch, or hydroxyethyl starch. When antibody to the water soluble polymer polyethylene glycol is to be detected, the carrier is modified with a non-linear polyethylene glycol derivative.
摘要:
The present invention relates to recombinant viral vectors and methods of using the recombinant viral vectors to induce an immune response to influenza A viruses. The invention provides recombinant viral vectors based, for example, on the non-replicating modified vaccinia virus Ankara. When administered according to methods of the invention, the recombinant viral vectors are designed to be cross-protective and induce heterosubtypic immunity to influenza A viruses.
