The present invention relates to a protein of the scFv type in which said protein comprises a first polypeptide chain and a second polypeptide chain joined by a ligand, having the formula as follows: (VH domain)-(ligand)-(VL domain). The present invention further relates to a polynucleotide comprising the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1; to a vector comprising the polynucleotide as defined above; to the host cell comprising the vector as previously defined; and the composition comprising the aforementioned protein and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. The present invention further relates to a method for treating a disease or condition that results directly or indirectly from α4β1 integrin activity. The present invention further relates to an in vitro method for prognosing multiple sclerosis. The present invention further relates to the use of the previously defined protein or composition in the manufacture of a drug for the treatment of multiple sclerosis.
摘要:
The drugs available for the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis have unsatisfactory efficacy, frequent and serious adverse effects, and require long treatment regimens. Thus, the search for new treatment alternatives for cutaneous leishmaniasis is considered a priority by the World Health Organization. Parenteral administration of pentavalent antimonials for the treatment of all forms of leishmaniasis, including cutaneous leishmaniasis, has several limitations. The therapy is long, requires repeated doses, and adverse reactions are frequent. Topical treatment is an attractive alternative for cutaneous leishmaniasis, offering significant advantages over systemic therapy: fewer adverse effects, ease of administration, and lower costs. The present inventors aimed to provide a fixed-dose topical composition containing at least one antileishmanial compound, providing adequate absorption of the active ingredient. Another objective of the present invention is to provide a topical, fixed-dose formulation containing a combination of antileishmanial compounds that has sufficient efficacy and safety to be used in the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis.

The instant invention relates to a qualitative predictive method, to a method, use and kit applied to the early differential diagnosis of the most prevalent forms of bacterial and viral meningitis, enabling to detect and distinguish the different forms of meningitis. The invention uses a qualitative predictive method based on combined detection and sequential analysis of the presence/absence of at least three out of four specific biomarkers.
摘要:
The invention relates to three isolated DNA molecules that encode for proteins, BigL1, BigL2 and BigL3, in the Leptospira sp bacterium which have repetitive Bacterial-Ig-like (Big) domains and their use in diagnostic, therapeutic and vaccine applications. According to the present invention, the isolated molecules encoding for BigL1, BigL2 and BigL3 proteins are used for the diagnosis and prevention of infection with Leptospira species that are capable of producing disease in humans and other mammals, including those of veterinary importance.

摘要:
This invention relates to a device that is intended to synchronize electroencephalograms (EEGs), recorded by any digital equipment, to physical events (sensorial, visual or auditory stimuli) and behavioral events (motor response, vocal response), in order to allow EEG signal mediation for the purpose of visualizing Evoked Potentials or Event-Related Potentials, which are important research subjects in the neurosciences and clinical investigations into neurological and psychiatric pathologies. This invention allows any digital EEG device to be transformed into equipment that can record Evoked Potentials. This invention also provides a method for analog synchronization of EEGs with oscillating electric light-related events and motor behaviors.
摘要:
The present invention refers to polypeptides with asparaginase activity that have an increased rate of self-processing compared to human wild L-asparaginase (ASRGL1), with mutation in the ASRGL1 glycine rich loop called HGG loop (Histidine 8-Glycine 9-Glycine 10). Polynucleotides that encode the polypeptides of invention are also described here, expression cassettes comprising so-called polynucleotides, expression vectors, host cells, pharmaceutical compositions, uses of the invention polypeptide in the manufacture of a preventive medicine or cancer treatment and methods to produce the polypeptide of invention and to prevent or treat cancer.
