摘要:
Soluble PH20 polypeptides are provided, including extended soluble PH20 polypeptides, and uses thereof. Also provided are other C-terminally truncated PH20 polypeptides and partially deglycosylated PH20 polypeptides and uses thereof.
摘要:
The present invention provides therapeutic agents and compositions comprising elastin-like peptides (ELPs) and therapeutic proteins. In some embodiments, the therapeutic protein is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, insulin, or Factor VII/VIIa, including functional analogs. The present invention further provides encoding polynucleotides, as well as methods of making and using the therapeutic agents. The therapeutic agents have improvements in relation to their use as therapeutics, including, inter alia, one or more of half-life, clearance and/or persistance in the body, solubility, and bioavailability.
摘要:
Protein particles are prepared by causing or allowing protein molecules dispersed in a liquid medium at a concentration of 8 mg.mL-1 or greater to react in the presence of a zero-length crosslinker, so as to produce protein particles comprising protein molecules that are covalently bonded together. The protein particles may be produced with sizes in the sub-micron range with closely defined sizes and size distributions. The particles have applications in many fields, but are useful inter alia for the delivery of therapeutic agents and other agents, eg imaging contrast agents, to the body.
摘要:
Provided herein are methods of enhancing in vivo efficacy of an active agent, comprising: administering to a subject an active agent that is coupled to a bioelastic polymer or elastin-like peptide, wherein the in vivo efficacy of the active agent is enhanced as compared to the same active agent when administered to the subject not coupled to (or not associated with) a bioelastic polymer or ELP.
摘要:
The present invention relates to biodegradable scaffolds composed of a naturally-occurring protein backbone cross-linked by a synthetic polymer. Specifically, the present invention provides PEGylated-fibrinogen scaffold and methods of generating and using same for treating disorders requiring tissue regeneration.
摘要:
The invention embodies the surprising discovery that Tissue Factor (TF) compositions and variants thereof specifically localize to the blood vessels within a vascularized tumor following systemic administration. The invention therefore provides methods and compositions comprising coagulant-deficient Tissue Factor for use in effecting specific coagulation and for use in tumor treatment. The TF compositions and methods of present invention may be used alone, as TF conjugates with improved half-life, or in combination with other agents, such as conventional chemotherapeutic drugs, targeted immunotoxins, targeted coaguligands, and/or in combination with Factor VIIa (FVIIa) or FVIIa activators.
摘要:
A novel angiogenesis drug which can be clinically used for therapies of human or the like is disclosed. The angiogenesis drug according to the present invention comprises a peptide as an effective component, which has a prescribed amino acid sequence and has an angiogenesis action.

摘要:
A fibrin/fibrinogen binding conjugate for forming a depot for the sustained release of a pharmaceutically active substance from a fibrin clot. The conjugate comprises a fibrin/fibrinogen binding moiety bound to a pharmaceutically active substance either directly or via an intervening substance capturing moiety such as an antibody. The conjugate can also be a recombinant fusion protein comprising a fibrin/fibrinogen binding moiety such as VEGF165 C-terminal domain fused to a wound-healing substance such as leptin.
摘要:
The present disclosure relates to polypeptides, such as fibronectin type III (FN3) domains that can bind CD71, their conjugates, isolated nucleotides encoding the molecules, vectors, host-cells, as well as methods of making and using the same.
