Abstract:
An antibody that binds to a filovirus glycoprotein generally includes include a complementarity determining region (CDR) of any one of SEQ ID NO:27-36 or a combination of such CDRs. The antibody may be used in to detect filovirus in a biological sample obtained from a subject. The antibody also may be formulated into a pharmaceutical composition for administering to a subject having, or at risk of having, a filovirus infection.
Abstract:
The invention provides methods of treating autophagy mediated diseases and disorders and related pharmaceutical compositions, diagnostics, screening techniques and kits. In one embodiment, the invention provides a method of determining whether a subject suffers from, or is at risk of developing, and autophagy mediated disease state and/or condition by evaluating LC3 levels.

Abstract:
This invention provides fusion proteins comprising a Filovirus glycoprotein segment and an immunoglobulin polypeptide segment. The fusion proteins are useful in immunogenic compositions to protect against infections by Filoviruses, such as Ebola virus, in both humans and non-human animals. The fusion proteins are also useful in diagnostic assays to detect Filovirus infections.
