Methods for treating a neoplastic disease with an antibody-cytotoxin conjugate molecule, methods of synthesizing an antibody-cytotoxin conjugate molecule are provided. Compounds that are useful as antibody-cytotoxin conjugate molecule or useful in the synthesis of these molecules are also provided.
摘要:
This invention generally relates to methods of producing an antibody phage population having affinity for a tumor cell target expressing a metastatic phenotype. The invention further relates to antibody compositions that specifically bind to a cell surface receptor on the metastatic cell.
摘要:
The invention describes the display of exogenous polypeptides on filamentous phage using a fusion between the exogenous polypeptide and phage pVII or pIX proteins. In particular, phage particles and phagemid vectors are described for expression and display of heterodimeric proteins such a antibody Fv heterodimers in combinatorial libraries, and uses thereof.
摘要:
An anti-cocaine vaccine employs a cocaine hapten conjugated to a carrier protein. The anti-cocaine vaccine elicits an immune response which reduces the psychoactive effects of cocaine consumption by the production of anti-cocaine polyclonal antibodies. The antibodies may be employed in an ELISA test for assaying cocaine. The immune response elicited by the anti-cocaine vaccine produces antibody producing cells which may be isolated and cloned for producing anti-cocaine monoclonal antibodies.
摘要:
Molecules having covalent catalytic activity are identified by panning synthetic and semisynthetic combinatorial libraries on solid phase suicide substrates. In an alternative mode, mechanism-based inhibitors or affinity labels may substituted for the suicide substrate. Covalent catalysts within the combinatorial library form covalent conjugates with the suicide substrate, mechanism-based inhibitor, or affinity label. Covalent conjugates are immobilized by attachment to the suicide substrate to solid phase and are easily separated from unconjugated elements of the combinatorial library by stringent washing. Combinatorial libraries employing phagemid-display are particularly preferred since such phagemids include genetic material for identifying and amplifying conjugated catalysts. Covalent catalysts obtainable by this method include, inter alia, molecules having esterolytic activity, aldol condensation activity, .beta.-lactamase activity, glycosidase activity, RNase activity, and proteolytic activity.

This invention provides small molecule Myc-inhibitors. Also provided in the invention are therapeutic applications of these compounds for treating Myc-driven cancer and other related methods.
摘要:
The present invention provides anti-ghrelin antibodies or antigen-binding molecules that are capable of sequestering ghrelin and inhibiting ghrelin-mediated cellular activities. Also provided in the invention are therapeutic applications of combinations of these antibodies, e.g., to treat or prevent obesity.

摘要:
Immunoconjugates for impeding weight gain and treating obesity in a subject are disclosed. The immunoconjugates comprise a ghrelin mimetic polypeptide hapten, a spacer moiety comprising one of more polyethylene glycol (PEG) units, and a protein carrier moiety. Immunoconjugates optionally include a conjugation moiety for conjugating the polypeptide hapten with a linker moiety or the protein carrier moiety and a linker moiety for conjugating the conjugation moiety with the protein carrier moiety.
