摘要:
Provided are novel specific binding molecules, particularly human antibodies as well as fragments, derivatives and variants thereof that recognize neoepitopes of disease-associated proteins which derive from native endogenous proteins but are prevalent in the body of a patient in a variant form and/or out of their normal physiological context. In addition, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such binding molecules, antibodies and mimics thereof and methods of screening for novel binding molecules, which may or may not be antibodies as well as targets in the treatment of neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease are described.
摘要:
The present invention generally relates to the technical field of medicine, in particular to the field of neurodegenerative, neurological and protein misfolding disorders such as amyloidosis. By establishing a role of ankG in APP processing the method of the present invention provides a new insight into the role of ankG in AD pathology and provides ankG as a target, drug, diagnostic agent and particularly as a vaccine in the treatment and diagnosis of the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

摘要:
Provided are human alpha-synuclein-specific autoantibodies as well as fragments, derivatives and variants thereof as well as methods related thereto. Assays, kits, and solid supports related to antibodies specific for α-synuclein are also disclosed. The antibody, immunoglobulin chain(s), as well as binding fragments, derivatives and variants thereof can be used in pharmaceutical and diagnostic compositions for α-synuclein targeted immunotherapy and diagnosis, respectively.
摘要:
Provided are novel drugs and methods in the treatment as well as diagnosis of neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and amyloid-beta pathology/amyloidosis. More specifically, the use of erythropoietin and analogs thereof for the treatment of Aβ peptide related brain impairments is described. Furthermore, the use of claudin-5 and variants thereof as biomarker for Alzheimer's disease and for the progression of Alzheimer's disease, respectively, is provided.
摘要:
A treatment of Alzheimer's disease and other disorders involving protein misfolding or aggregation is provided by enhancing or sustaining an antibody response against predominantly directed against pathological protein aggregates or neo-epitopes present on pathogenic forms of said protein or protein complex. Furthermore, therapeutic methods are also described, wherein ex vivo stimulated antigen-selected peripheral blood lymphocytes are regrafted into the cognate donor.
摘要:
Provided is a novel APP (amyloid precursor protein) transgenic non-human animal modeling in vivo the pathophysiological effects and effects on cognitive behavior of early intraneuronal and extracellular brain parenchymal amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition and cerebral amyloid angiopathy associated with brain microhemorrhages and reduced vasoreactivity and blood flow. Furthermore, methods of screening for therapeutic or diagnostic agents useful in the treatment or diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, in particular for improving blood flow to the brain are provided as well as the corresponding therapeutic methods.
摘要:
A novel method of identifying and obtaining molecules interacting with neurodegenerative, neurological or neuropsychiatric disorder-associated proteins is provided, which is suitable for drug screening and drug development. Furthermore, drugs and drug targets for the therapeutic intervention of neurodegenerative, neurological or neuropsychiatric disorders, in particular Alzheimer's disease are described.
摘要:
Provided are anti-human α-synuclein-specific binding molecules, e.g., antibodies or antigen-binding fragments, variants or derivatives thereof, as methods related thereto. Further provided are anti-human α-synuclein binding molecules which bind to specific N-terminal and C-terminal epitopes on human α-synuclein. The binding molecules described herein can be used in pharmaceutical and diagnostic compositions for α-synuclein targeted immunotherapy and diagnosis, respectively.
