Abstract: The present invention provides a novel use and methods comprising antibodies, or antigen-binding fragments thereof, which bind to a CCR7 receptor for use as a novel therapeutic agent in prevention and/or treatment of graft versus host disease (GVHD), preferably in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), more preferably allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. GVHD of the invention can be acute (aGVHD) and/or chronic (cGVHD), preferably acute. The antibodies and antigen-binding fragments are capable of selectively depleting ex vivo or in vitro immune cells expressing CCR7 and are capable in vivo of selectively killing immune cells expressing a CCR7 receptor and of impairing/blocking migration and of activation of said immune cells, which are involved in the development and evolution of GVHD.

Abstract: A biomaterial for suturing comprising a physiologically compatible support material coated with a cellular population with proliferative and/or differentiation capacity, characteristics which facilitate the regeneration of the sutured tissue. This biomaterial for suturing not only brings together the two edges of an open wound, but also contributes actively to the healing process, thereby accelerating the tissue repair process. Also disclosed are methods for making the biomaterial and methods for using the biomaterials in therapy.

Abstract: The present invention relates to sulphated disaccharides of formula (I) for use in the treatment of neuropathic pain.
