摘要:
The invention concerns agonist anti-trkC monoclonal antoibodies which mimic certain biological activities of NT-3, the native ligand of trkC. The invention further concerns the use of such antibodies in the prevention and/or treatment of cellular degeneration, including nerve cell damage associated with acute nervous cell system injury and chronic neurodegenerative diseases, including peripheral neuropathy.
摘要:
Human antibodies, or fragments thereof, to the gamma-carboxyglutamic acid (Gla) domain of factor IX and factor IXa, especially of human factor IX and human factor IXa. Isolated nucleic acid encoding said antibodies or fragments thereof. Methods for their preparation. Pharmaceutical composition comprising said antibodies or fragments thereof, and a method for treating a mammal by using said pharmaceutical composition in a therapeutically effective amount.
摘要:
The invention provides isolated anti-prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA) antibodies that internalize upon binding to PSCA on a mammalian in vivo. The invention also encompasses compositions comprising an anti-PSCA antibody and a carrier. These compositions can be provided in an article of manufacture or a kit. Another aspect of the invention is an isolated nucleic acid encoding an anti-PSCA antibody, as well as an expression vector comprising the isolated nucleic acid. Also provided are cells that produce the anti-PSCA antibodies. The invention encompasses a method of producing the anti-PSCA antibodies. Other aspects of the invention are a method of killing a PSCA-expressing cancer cell, comprising contacting the cancer cell with an anti-PSCA antibody and a method of alleviating or treating a PSCA-expressing cancer in a mammal, comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of the anti-PSCA antibody to the mammal.
