摘要:
The present invention relates to passive immunization for treating or preventing atherosclerosis using an isolated human antibody directed towards at least one oxidized fragment of apolipoprotein B in the manufacture of a pharmaceutical composition for therapeutical or prophylactical treatment of atherosclerosis by means of passive immunization, as well as method for preparing such antibodies, and a method for treating a mammal, preferably a human using such an antibody to provide for passive immunization.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for in vitro evolution of protein function. In particular, the method relates to the shuffling of nucleotide segments obtained from exonuclease digestion. The present inventors have shown that polynucleotide fragments derived from a parent polynucleotide sequence digested with an exonuclease can be combined to generate a polynucleotide sequence which encodes for a polypeptide having desired characteristics. This method may be usefully applied to the generation of new antibodies or parts thereof having modified characteristics as compared to the parent antibody.
摘要:
An improved method for selecting a molecule such as an antibody, antigen, peptide, protein or fragment thereof and its encoding sequence, which molecule is expressed together with a phage coat protein on the phages surface. The improvement is achieved through a new mutant filamentous helper phage which has retained the gene III promoter, whereas the gene III encoding sequence is deleted. Amplification of phage titer of 10.sup.6 times were achieved in M13-derived phages, when used for the selection of specific antibody.
摘要:
The present invention generally relates to combinations for use in therapeutic systems and antibody dosage regimens, and uses thereof. Also described herein is a model for predicting if a therapeutic antibody binding to a human target will be associated with a tolerability issue in connection with intravenous administration and/or for predicting if pre-treatment, altered administration route or modification of the antibody can prevent a tolerability issue associated with intravenous administration to a human of the therapeutic antibody. The model comprises administering the antibody intravenously or intraperitoneally to mice and observing the mice immediately after the administration for any transient display of the macroscopic symptoms isolation and decreased activity. The model may also comprise administration of a pre-treatment in combination with administration of the antibody, administration of the therapeutic antibody by a route of administration other than intravenous or intraperitoneal administration or administration of a modified format of the antibody to mice and observing the mice immediately after such administration for any transient display of the macroscopic symptoms isolation and decreased activity and comparing this with the transient display of the macroscopic symptoms isolation and decreased activity after the intravenous or intraperitoneal administration of the unmodified antibody without pre-treatment.
摘要:
Described are anti-LILRB3 antibody molecules, such as agonistic anti-LILRB3 antibody molecules for use in treatment of graft rejection or autoimmunity via reprograming of human myeloid cells. Described are also specific anti-LILRB3 antibody molecules and use of such antibody molecules in medicine, for example in treatment of graft rejection, autoimmune disorders or inflammatory disorders.
摘要:
The invention provides binding molecules, including antibody molecules which selectively bind to a cell surface antigen of a target cell, and wherein the binding molecules, on binding the cell surface antigen, induce apoptosis of the target cell. There is also provided methods of and pharmaceutical compositions for apoptosis induction and uses thereof.
摘要:
A method for selecting a molecule such as an antibody, antigen, peptide, protein or fragment thereof, which molecule is expressed together with a phage coat protein on the phage's surface. The method is characterised by linking phage replication to recognition of the molecule on the surface of the phage. The linkage can be achieved by use of a fusion protein between phage protein 3 and a specific binding ligand for the molecule.
摘要:
The present invention relates to screening methods and, in particular, to methods of screening anti-ligand libraries for identifying anti-ligands specific for differentially and/or infrequently expressed ligands. The method comprises the steps of providing a library of anti-ligands: providing a first subtractor ligand; providing a second target ligand; determining the amount of the first and second target ligands using one or more equations derived from the universal law of mass action; providing the determined amount of a first subtractor ligand; providing the determined amount of a second target ligand; providing separation means capable of use to isolate anti-ligand bound to the second target ligand from anti-ligand bound to the first subtractor ligand; exposing the library of to the first and second target ligands to permit binding of anti-ligands to ligands; and using the separation means to isolate the anti-ligand bound to second target ligand.
