摘要:
Novel MCP-1 splice variant polypeptides and polynucleotides encoding same are provided. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the splice variant polypeptides and polynucleotides, vectors and host cells comprising same. The compositions of the present invention are useful to treat various MCP-1 related disorders as well as for diagnosing, determining predisposition and/or prognosis of various disorders.
摘要:
Provided are substantially pure CD40 splice variants that include altered internal sequences and unique tail sequences relative to previously described CD40 protein sequences. Also provided are fragments of the CD40 splice variants comprising at least 10 amino acids including at least 4 amino acids of the unique tail sequence; the unique tail sequences, and homologues thereof having at least 10 amino acids and 90% identity and antibodies which bind to an epitope on such proteins are disclosed. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising the protein, antibodies, isolated nucleic acid molecule that encode such proteins and pharmaceutical composition comprising such nucleic acid molecules are also disclosed. The present invention additionally relates to recombinant expression vectors that include the nucleic acid molecules and host cells which comprise such recombinant expression vectors are disclosed. In vitro methods of detecting in a sample the presence and/or quantity of such proteins or transcript which encodes such proteins are disclosed as are kits and reagents for performing the methods. Methods of modulating CD40-CD154 interactions in an individual are disclosed.
摘要:
The present invention discloses markers useful in predicting the responsiveness of a subject having, or at risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis (RA) to treatment with anti-TNF agents. Particularly, the present invention discloses the allelic configuration of the CD6 gene and/or the STXBP6 gene which is indicative of the degree of responsiveness to anti-TNFα treatment of RA.
摘要:
Provided are angiopoietin-derived peptides or homologs or derivatives thereof, pharmaceutical composition including them, a use thereof for therapy and for the manufacture of a medicament, a method of treating a wide range of conditions, disorders and diseases therewith, nucleotide sequences encoding them, antibodies directed to epitopes thereof and fusion proteins including them.
摘要:
Novel markers for breast cancer that are both sensitive and accurate. These markers are overexpressed in breast cancer specifically, as opposed to normal breast tissue. The measurement of these markers, alone or in combination, in patient samples provides information that the diagnostician can correlate with a probable diagnosis of breast cancer. The markers of the present invention, alone or in combination, show a high degree of differential detection between breast cancer and non-cancerous states.
摘要:
Novel markers for prostate cancer that are both sensitive and accurate. Furthermore, these markers are able to distinguish between prostate cancer and benign prostate hyperplasia (“BPH”). These markers are overexpressed in prostate cancer specifically, as opposed to normal prostate tissue and/or BPH. The measurement of these markers, alone or in combination, in patient samples provides information that the diagnostician can correlate with a probable diagnosis of prostate cancer. The markers of the present invention, alone or in combination, show a high degree of differential detection between prostate cancer and non-cancerous states.

摘要:
This invention relates to LY6G6F, VSIG10, TMEM25 and LSR proteins, which are suitable targets for immunotherapy, treatment of cancer, infectious disorders, and/or immune related disorders, and drug development. This invention further relates to soluble LY6G6F, VSIG10, TMEM25 and LSR molecules, extracellular domains of LY6G6F, VSIG10, TMEM25 and LSR and conjugates, which are suitable drugs for immunotherapy, treatment of cancer, infectious disorders, and/or immune related disorders. This invention further relates to antibodies and antigen binding fragments and conjugates containing same, and/or alternative scaffolds, specific for LY6G6F, VSIG10, TMEM25 or LSR molecules, which are suitable drugs for immunotherapy, treatment of cancer, infectious disorders, and/or immune related disorders.
摘要:
Novel markers for ovarian cancer that are both sensitive and accurate. These markers are overexpressed and/or differentially expressed in ovarian cancer specifically, as opposed to normal ovarian tissue. The measurement of these markers, alone or in combination, in patient samples provides information that the diagnostician can correlate with a probable diagnosis, in ovarian cancer. The markers of the present invention, alone or in combination, show a high degree of differential detection between ovarian cancer and non-cancerous states.
