摘要:
The present invention is directed to multivalent Clostridial toxin comprising more than one binding domain directed to a cell surface molecule of a target cell. Such modified toxins are useful as therapeutic compositions to prevent exocytosis and secretion by the target cell. Conditions in which such compositions man be useful include, without limitation, disorders of the sensory or motor nervous system, acute or chronic pain, cancer, pancreatitis, hyperhydrosis, glandular disorders, viral infections, cystic fibrosis and the like. The invention is also directed to methods of using and administering such a composition, and methods of treating a given condition using such a composition.

The specification discloses modified Clostridial toxins comprising a Clostridial toxin enzymatic domain, a Clostridial toxin translocation domain and an enhanced Clostridial toxin binding domain; polynucleotide molecules encoding such modified Clostridial toxins; and method of producing such modified Clostridial toxins.
摘要:
The present invention relates to rescue agents for use in the treatments of toxin intoxication—for example botulinum intoxication, which can result from food poisoning, an act of bioterrorism, or from accidental overdose in the course of treatment. In some embodiments, the rescue agents comprise at least one of an inactive botulinum toxin and a modified nontoxic nonhemagglutinin. The present invention also provides for glycosylated active and inactive toxins and methods of using same.
摘要:
The present invention provides for methods of modulating the degradation rate of a toxin in a cell, thereby modulating the half-life of the toxin. Particularly, the invention features methods of modulating the degradation rate of a toxin by modulating fusion between a lysosome and an endosome that carries the toxin in the cell.
