摘要:
The present invention relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present invention relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.

摘要:
Structural and functional analysis of peptide inhibitor binding to the cyclin D and cyclin A groove has been investigated and used to design peptides that provide the basis for structure-activity relationships, have improved binding and have potential for development as chemical biology probes, as potential diagnostics and as therapeutics in the treatment of proliferative diseases including cancer and inflammation.
摘要:
Disclosed is A method of treatment of a disorder or condition where it is desirable to inhibit the growth of cells, or a method of treatment which involves cytostatic therapy by administering an oligopeptidic compound to a subject in need thereof. The oligopeptidic compound is capable of interacting with proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) The compound comprises a PCNA interacting motif which is: which is: [K/R]-[F/Y/W]-[L/I/V/A/M]-[L/I/V/A/M]-[K/R] (SEQ ID NO. 28).The oligopeptidic compound has 9-70 subunits and at least one signal sequence. The signal sequence is a nuclear localization signal sequence and/or a cell penetrating signal sequence. In the compound a PCNA interacting motif is N-terminal to a signal sequence.
摘要:
The invention provides peptides and analogs of INGAP and HIP peptides. The peptides and analogs can be used in methods for treating various diseases and conditions. Such diseases and conditions can include impaired pancreatic function, treating a metabolic disease, for example, diabetes, both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, islets induction, expansion and proliferation for transplantation, promoting neuroprotection or nerve regeneration, promoting liver regeneration or inhibiting inflammation.
摘要:
The present invention relates to fusion proteins for the expression of G-protein coupled receptor proteins (GPCR) with the fusion partners, as inserted fragments, from mammalian cells. The fusion partners are from a fragment of APJ protein (“the APJ protein fragment”) or a fragment with homology of more than 90% similarity to the APJ protein fragment; or a fragment of RGS16 protein (the “RGS16 protein fragment”) or a fragment with homology of more than 90% similarity to the RGS16 protein fragment; or the fragment of DNJ protein (the “DNJ protein fragment”) or a fragment with homology of more than 90% similarity to DNJ protein fragment. The fusion expression of GPCR with the above mentioned fusion partners can improve the protein yield and stability when purified from cells. Therefore, these fusion protein partners can be widely used for the study of GPCR proteins.
摘要:
MHC Class I-restricted peptides derived from the tumor associated antigen, survivin, which peptides are capable of binding to Class I HLA molecules at a high affinity, capable of eliciting INF-γ-producing cells in a PBL population of a cancer patient and capable of in situ detection of cytotoxic T cells in a tumor tissue, therapeutic and diagnostic composition comprising the peptide and uses thereof.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to mutagenesis of target genes that enhances the natural mutagenic capabilities of adaptive immune cells by providing a chimeric construct that exploits the ability of molecules such as AID to stimulate diversification and the ability of a second molecule to restrict nuclear activity of the molecules and/or protect cell viability. The invention provides a method for stimulating diversification in expressed genes, such as antibody genes, using polypeptides whose nuclear activity is restricted to specific phases of the cell cycle. This method can be coupled with selection to identify B cell clones that produce, for example, antibodies of high affinity or specificity, or for developing T cells for immunotherapy. The invention provides an improved means of developing a repertoire of variant immunoglobulins and other polypeptides.
