摘要:
Methods for producing secreted receptor analogs and biologically active peptide dimers are disclosed. The methods for producing secreted receptor analogs and biologically active peptide dimers utilize a DNA sequence encoding a receptor analog or a peptide requiring dimerization for biological activity joined to a dimerizing protein. The receptor analog includes a ligand-binding domain. Polypeptides comprising essentially the extracellular domain of a human PDGF receptor fused to dimerizing proteins, the portion being capable of binding human PDGF or an isoform thereof, are also disclosed. The polypeptides may be used within methods for determining the presence of and for purifying human PDGF or isoforms thereof.

摘要:
Purified cytotoxic proteins for use within therapeutic compositions are disclosed. The proteins inhibit protein synthesis in vitro, exhibit abortifacient activity in mice, and contain proline residues with equivalent positions at residue 43 and residue 46 in ricin A-chain. A method for preparing such a cytotoxic protein from the tissue of Trichosanthes kirilowii is also disclosed. The proteins may also be used within a method for inhibiting protein synthesis in selected cells.
摘要:
Compositions and methods are disclosed herein for producing one or more immunoglobulins in an isolated B lymphocyte cell line. An isolated recombinant cell line includes an isolated B lymphocyte cell line capable of expressing at least one endogenous membrane immunoglobulin reactive to a first antigen and at least one exogenously incorporated nucleic acid encoding at least one secreted immunoglobulin reactive to a second antigen.

Magnetic resonance systems, devices, methods, and compositions are provided. Further provided are systems, devices, methods, and compositions for obtaining magnetic resonance information of a region within a biological subject without the need or use of an external-magnet.
摘要:
Methods for treating cancer by co-administering a therapeutic monoclonal antibody with IL-21 are described. Exemplary monoclonal antibodies that can be used are rituximab, trastuzumab and anti-CTLA-4 antibodies. The enhanced antitumor of the combination therapy is particularly useful for patient populations that are recalcitrant to monoclonal therapy, relapse after treatment with monoclonal antibodies or where the enhanced IL-21 antitumor effect reduces toxicities associated with treatment using the monoclonal antibodies.
