    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and kits for the detection, isolation and quantification of apoptotic cells based on the apoptotic cells' increased expression of alpha-D-mannose and/or beta-D-galactose containing glycoproteins. Lectins that bind to alpha-D-mannose and beta-D-galactose-rich glycoconjugates are used in the methods and kits for agglutination tests for the detection, isolation and quantification of apoptotic cells. Lectins may be used to stimulate the agglutination of cells and apoptosis may be detected by assessing the concentration of lectins required to agglutinate a cell population and comparing the concentration to predetermined values for intact cells and cells in various stages after induction of apoptosis.

    Abstract: The invention relates to methods for modulating cell death and cell survival and for modulating the sensitivity of cells towards agents that modulate cell death or cell survival. The invention also relates to the identification of kinases and phosphatases that promote cell survival or cell death. The invention further relates to methods for screening compounds that modulate the activity, expression and/or protein-protein interactions of cell survival or cell death-promoting kinases and phosphatases. Accordingly, kinases and/or phosphatases that modulate cell proliferation and death may serve as therapeutic targets for the development of new cancer treatments.

    Abstract: Superantibodies having enhanced autophilic, catalytic, and/or membrane- penetrating properties are prepared by affinity-based conjugation of a photoactivatable organic molecule to a target immunoglobulin. The photoactivatable organic molecule bears a chromophoric aromatic hydrocarbon moiety, which has affinity for the immunoglobulin. Upon photolysis, the organic molecule is covalently linked to the immunoglobulin. A preferred organic molecule is a peptide and a preferred aromatic hydrocarbon moiety is a tryptophan residue. The photoactivatable organic molecule need not bear a purine, pyrimidine or azido group to effect binding to the immunoglobulin and/or photoactivation. The superantibodies can enhance the potency and expand the targeting range of target antibodies. Autophilic superantibodies can promote apoptosis of target cells and/or enhance therapeutic efficacies in the treatment of patients with diseases or disorders responsive to antibody therapy. Exemplary of such diseases are atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. Membrane-penetrating superantibodies can prevent apoptosis by binding to intracellular anti-caspase signal proteins. Compositions containing the superantibodies, as well as methods of making and using them, are disclosed.
