Abstract:
Provided herein are antibodies specific for integrin αvβ8 that change the conformation of β8 so that, upon binding, the ability of αvβ8 to induce release of active, mature TGFβ peptide is inhibited.
Abstract:
This disclosure relates to anti-Siglec-15 antibodies and uses thereof, in particular in the treatment of leukaemia, such as acute myeloid leukaemia.
Abstract:
This disclosure relates to combination therapies comprising anti-Pseudomonas Psl and PcrV binding molecules and related compositions, for use in prevention and treatment of Pseudomonas infection.
Abstract:
This disclosure relates to an anti-Pseudomonas Psl binding molecules and uses thereof, in particular in prevention and treatment of Pseudomonas infection. Furthermore, the disclosure provides compositions and methods for preventing and treating Pseudomonas infection.
Abstract:
Binding members, especially antibody molecules, for interleukin (IL)-4 receptor alpha (IL-4Ra) in particular Fc variant formats, and their therapeutic use e.g. in treating or preventing disorders associated with IL-4Ra, IL-4 and/or IL-13, examples of which are asthma and COPD.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods for selecting, obtaining or producing Fc variant polypeptides which show altered recognition for an Fc ligand (e.g., Fc?R, CIq). Additionally, the Fc variant polypeptides may have altered antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and/or complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) activity. The invention further provides methods and protocols for the application of said Fc variant polypeptides particularly for therapeutic purposes.
Abstract:
The disclosure provides transporter molecules capable of carrying agents of interest across the blood brain barrier. Also provided are polynucleotides encoding transporter molecules, methods making transporter molecules, and methods of using transporter molecules, e.g., for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of central nervous system diseases, disorders, or injuries.
Abstract:
This disclosure relates to an anti-CXCR2 binding molecules and uses thereof, in particular in treatment of cancers and inflammatory diseases. Furthermore, the disclosure provides compositions and methods for treating cancers and inflammatory diseases.
Abstract:
This invention relates to the transient expression of heterologous polypeptides in mammalian cell lines. Specifically it relates to an expression-enhanced cell line derived from a parent cell line, the expression-enhanced cell line comprising nucleic acid encoding Epstein-Barr Virus Nuclear Antigen 1 or a functional derivative, analogue, or variant thereof; and further comprising: (a) a nucleic acid encoding an exogenous glutamine synthetase; (b) a nucleic acid encoding an endogenous glutamine synthetase, wherein the endogenous glutamine is arranged to have enhanced enzymatic activity and/or enhanced expression relative to the parent cell line under comparable conditions; or (c) both (a) and (b).
Abstract:
The invention relates to targeted binding agents against CD105 and uses of such agents. More specifically, the invention relates to fully human monoclonal antibodies directed to CD105. The described targeted binding agents are useful in the treatment of diseases associated with the activity and/or overproduction of CD105 and as diagnostics.
