摘要:
This invention relates to humaneered anti-factor B antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof with reduced immunogenicity. The humaneered anti-factor B antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof are derived from murine monoclonal antibody 1379, which binds factor B in the third short consensus repeat (“SCR”) domain and selectively inhibits activation of the alternative complement pathway by preventing formation of the C3bBb complex. The invention also relates to methods of treating diseases or disorders in which activation of the alternative complement pathway plays a role, and methods of selectively inhibiting activation of the alternative complement pathway in an individual in need thereof.

摘要:
Certain embodiments facilitate collaboration between designers and developers in the creation of software applications. Designers and developers can work on the same multi-file-based software development project, without the designer having to address or even be aware of the multi-file structure of the project or the management of different versions of the project. Instead the designer can receive and send the project as a single file and work with it as if it were a single document. A developer or another user can address conflicts and other versioning issues that may result from collaborators making changes concurrently.

The compositions and methods disclosed herein pertain to the manufacture and use of hydrogels. The disclosed compositions and methods pertain to hydrogels capable of induction by a variety of methodologies, such as by pH, salt and/or mixing. Such hydrogels are capable of self- or co-assembly and while doing so, may entrap a variety of bioactive agents in their native form, such as proteins, DNA, RNA and the like. The hydrogels of the present invention also demonstrate rapid sheer-responsiveness. The hydrogels of the present invention are biodegradable, biocompatible and useful as a biomaterial or drug-delivery device.

The invention provides novel Wnt polypeptides that have improved production characteristics, solubility, systemic delivery, and tissue uptake, and polynucleotides encoding the Wnt polypeptides of the invention. The Wnt polypeptides of the invention can be used therapeutically, such as, for example, in methods of preventing or treating muscle loss and/or promoting muscle hypertrophy and growth.

The invention provides cell culture conditions for culturing stem cells, including feeder-free conditions for generating and culturing human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). More particularly, the invention provides a culture platform that allows long-term culture of pluripotent cells in a feeder-free environment; reprogramming of cells in a feeder-free environment; single-cell dissociation of pluripotent cells; cell sorting of pluripotent cells; maintenance of an undifferentiated status; improved efficiency of reprogramming; and generation of a naïve pluripotent cell.

摘要:
A system for diagnosing impairments in computer networking services a plurality of connector gateways for interfacing to a plurality of data sources to provide access by the system to computer network data, business-related data, and extra-enterprise environmental data in the plurality of data sources. The system includes a knowledge manager in communication with each of the plurality of connector gateways for analyzing data from the plurality of data sources to generate diagnostic conclusions for resolving the impairments in the computer networking services. The system also includes an interactor in communication with the knowledge manager for generating format information for displaying at least the diagnostic conclusions to a user. The system can include a graphical user interface for displaying at least the diagnostic conclusions associated with edges of an edge model of the computer networking services of the user.
摘要:
The present invention provides methods of making antibodies having the binding specificity of a reference antibody. Antibodies generated by the methods of the inventions have at least one minimal essential binding specificity determinant from a heavy chain or light chain CDR3 from the reference antibody. The method can be used, e.g., in humanization procedures. The invention also provides libraries and antibodies made in accordance with the methods.
