These conjugate molecules are useful as agents for the treatment and prevention of metabolic and cardiovascular diseases, disorders, and conditions. Such diseases, conditions and disorders include, but are not limited to, hypertension, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular disease, eating disorders, insulin-resistance, obesity, and diabetes mellitus of any kind, and other diabetes-related disorders.
Abstract:
A method for preparing stapled peptides. The stapled peptides, including helical stapled peptides, are prepared according to a photochemically-based method, a [3+2] cycloaddition reaction. The helical stapled peptides exhibit increased helicity, thermal stability and cell permeability.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an anti-ovarian cancer bispecific antibody. Said antibody includes two polypeptide domains connected by a polypeptide linker, one is anti-ovarian cancer antibody, or its Fab fragment, single complementarity determining region (CDR) antibody or single chain Fv (scFv) and the other is anti-CD3 antibody, or its Fab fragment, single CDR antibody or scFv. The present invention also provides DNA sequences encoding said antibody, an expression vector containing said DNA sequence, and a host cell containing said expression vector.
