Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods of screening for a sortilin binding antagonist. In some embodiments, the methods include incubating an agent with a sortilin protein and a sortilin ligand, where the sortilin protein and sortilin ligand are each attached to a member of a fluorescence donor/acceptor pair, exciting the fluorescence donor of the fluorescence donor/acceptor pair, and detecting fluorescence emitted by the fluorescence donor at a second wavelength and fluorescence emitted by the fluorescence acceptor at a third wavelength. A decrease in the ratio of the fluorescence emitted by the fluorescence acceptor at the third wavelength to the fluorescence emitted by the fluorescence donor at the second wavelength, as compared to the ratio in the absence of the agent, indicates that the agent is a sortilin binding antagonist.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to antigen-binding proteins (ABPs) that specifically bind to apolipoprotein E (ApoE), compositions comprising such ABPs, methods of using such ABPs, and methods of making such ABPs. In some embodiments, the ABPs provided herein bind lipidated ApoE4. In some embodiments, the lipidated ApoE4 is within a lipoprotein particle, and the ABPs therefore bind to a lipoprotein particle comprising ApoE4. Any suitable ABP may be used. In some embodiments, the ABP is an antibody. In some embodiments, the ABP is an alternative scaffold. The ABPs provided herein may be used for the prevention or treatment of any disease, condition or disorder associated with ApoE4 expression.
