Abstract: Described herein are Fc variants and methods for the efficient production of antibodies and other multimeric protein complexes (collectively referred to herein as heteromultimeric proteins). Heteromultimeric proteins may be capable of specifically binding to more than one target. The targets may be, for example, different epitopes on a single molecule or located on different molecules. The methods combine efficient, high gene expression level, appropriate assembly, and ease of purification for the heteromultimeric proteins. The invention also provides methods of using these heteromultimeric proteins, and compositions, kits and articles of manufacture comprising these antibodies.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to nanolipoprotein particle conjugates comprising at least one polypeptide and nanolipoprotein particle conjugates comprising at least one short peptide between 20-60 amino acids in length. Also provided are related compositions and systems, and methods of preparing and using same. In particular, nanolipoprotein particle (NLP) conjugates with antigen-binding fragments (Fabs) are provided, where the NLP comprises a bilayer of membrane-forming lipids encircled by scaffold proteins, and the Fabs are conjugated to one or both bilayer surfaces. In some embodiments, the (NLP) conjugates further comprise a short peptide 20-60 amino acids in length.

Aspects of the invention include a syringe stopper rod comprising a sensor component that is configured to detect a delivery signature, and to transmit a report comprising a drug dose completion signal to a data management component, e.g., a mobile computing device.

Abstract: Disclosed are compounds which inhibit the activity of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 proteins, compositions containing the compounds and methods of treating diseases during which is expressed anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to techniques for obtaining a synthetic immunohistochemistry (IHC) image from a histochemically stained image. Particularly, aspects of the present disclosure are directed to accessing an input image that depicts a tissue section that has been stained with at least one histochemical stain; generating a synthetic image by processing the input image using a trained generator network; and outputting the synthetic image. The synthetic image depicts a tissue section that has been stained with at least one IHC stain that targets a first antigen, and techniques may also include receiving an input that is based on a level of expression of a first antigen from the synthetic image and/or generating, from the synthetic image, a value that is based on a level of expression of the first antigen.

Abstract: Disclosed are compounds which inhibit the activity of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 proteins, compositions containing the compounds and methods of treating diseases during which is expressed anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein.

Abstract: Methods and systems may be provided to predict functional response based on a set of predictors for therapeutic proteins. For example, a method can comprise receiving input data comprising first input data related to a set of predictors and corresponding measured functional response associated with the set of predictors obtained from a first set of therapeutic protein samples and second input data related to the set of predictors and a second set of therapeutic protein samples for prediction of a functional response, wherein the set of predictors were selected as a combination of related biophysical attributes of therapeutic proteins based on a pre-determined criterion; training a machine learning model with the first input data; and using the machine learning model and the set of predictors to predict a functional response of the second set of therapeutic protein samples based on the second input data.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for treating lupus nephritis in an individual that is greater than or equal to 12 years of age and less than 18 years of age.
