摘要:
Disclosed are methods for modulating splicing of Ataxin 3 mRNA in an animal with modified oligonucleotides. Such compounds and methods are useful to treat, prevent, or ameliorate spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) in an individual in need thereof.
摘要:
Antibodies against citrullinated protein antigens (ACPA) have shown their relevance for the diagnosis and possibly pathogenesis in arthritis. Described are means and methods for determining antibodies against homocitrulline-containing proteins or carbamylated proteins/peptides (anti-CarP) for the classification of individuals suffering from, or at risk of suffering from, arthritis.

摘要:
The present invention relates to novel CD4+ and CD8+ T cell epitopes that are specific for HPV-specific E6 and E7 oncoproteins, to peptides comprising these novel T cell epitopes, and to (vaccine) compositions comprising these peptides for use in methods for the prevention and/or treatment of HPV related diseases. Preferred epitopes are recognized by a T cell that infiltrates a cervical neoplastic lesion or by a T cell from a draining lymph node, and are presented by an HLA-DQ or HLA-DP molecule, or an HLA-B.
摘要:
The invention relates to means and methods for removing a proteolytic cleavage site from a protein comprising providing a cell that expresses pre-mRNA encoding the protein with an anti-sense oligonucleotide that induces skipping of the exonic sequence that encodes the proteolytic cleavage site, the method further comprising allowing translation of mRNA produced from the pre-mRNA.
摘要:
The invention relates to a peptide having a length of no more than 100 amino acids and comprising at least 19 contiguous amino acids from the amino acid sequence of the human PRAME protein, wherein the peptide comprises at least one HLA class II epitope and at least one HLA class I epitope from the amino acid sequence of the human PRAME protein and to its use as such or in a composition as a medicament for the treatment and/or prevention of cancer.
摘要:
The invention among other provides means and methods for modulating NOTCH3 expression and/or protein coding domain. In one aspect the invention provides a method for at least reducing an elevated level of NOTCH3 protein in a NOTCH3 expressing cell or the immediate vicinity thereof said method comprising providing said cell with an anti-sense oligonucleotide specific for NOTCH3 mRNA or pre-mRNA thereby decreasing production of said NOTCH3 protein or thereby altering the protein coding region in said NOTCH3 mRNA or pre-mRNA
摘要:
Described are compounds and methods useful in the promotion of muscle growth, the treatment of muscle loss or insufficient muscle growth, and the treatment of fibrotic conditions.
摘要:
Described are methods for removing a proteolytic cleavage site, the HCHWA-D mutation or the amino acids encoded by a trinucleotide repeat expansion from a protein comprising providing a cell that expresses pre-mRNA encoding the protein with an anti-sense oligonucleotide that induces skipping of the exonic sequence that comprises the proteolytic cleavage site, HCHWA-D mutation or trinucleotide repeat expansion, respectively, the method further comprising allowing translation of mRNA produced from the pre-mRNA.
摘要:
The present invention provides novel methods and kits for quantifying immune cells, specifically B-cells and T-cells, in a sample. The methods and kits may be used to monitor disease progression. They may also be used to determine the effect of a medicament used in the treatment of a disease. They may also be used to determine disease prognosis. They may also be used to diagnose disease.
