Abstract: The present disclosure provides an antibody for inducing immune tolerance, an induced lymphocyte, and a cell therapy agent therapeutic method using the induced lymphocyte. Specifically, the present disclosure provides an antibody that inhibits the interaction between CD80 and/or CD86 expressed on the surface of a certain cell and CD28 expressed on the surface of another cell, and substantially does not induce immune activation-induced cytokines. In a specific embodiment, the Fc portion of the antibody substantially does not produce the immune activation-induced cytokines.
Abstract: A cyclic polypeptide, derivative or analogue thereof, comprising an amino acid sequence derived from the C-terminus of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), or a truncation thereof.
Abstract: A method of treating Crohn's disease in a patient administers an IL-23 specific antibody, e.g., guselkumab, at an initial intravenous dose and subsequence subcutaneous doses.

Omoniyi Adedokun, Daphne Chan, Yang Chen, Philippe Szapary
Abstract: Provided is a MART-1 (27-35) epitope-specific T cell receptor, comprising an ? chain and a ? chain. The ? chain comprises three complementary determining regions, respective sequences thereof being positions 61-66, positions 84-89, and positions 124-136 of SEQ ID No. 3. The ? chain comprises three complementary determining regions, respective amino acid sequences thereof being positions 46-50, positions 68-73, and positions 112-125 of SEQ ID No. 4. A T cell expressing the TCR can effectively recognize a MART-1 (27-35) epitope polypeptide supported on a T2 cell and secrete IFN-?, thereby demonstrating the functionality of the receptor. Use of the TCR with a relevant drug target allows for effective drug development.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the fields of immunology and autoimmunity. More specifically, the present invention provides methods and compositions directed to the generation and use of antibodies to the pancreatic zinc transporter, ZnT8. The present invention also provides an isolated antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof that specifically binds ZnT8 comprising a VH comprising one of the amino acid sequences set forth in SEQ ID NOS:2, 12, 22, 32, 42 and 52. In alternative embodiments an isolated antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof that specifically binds ZnT8 comprises a VL comprising one of the amino acid sequences as set forth in SEQ ID NOS:7, 17, 27, 37, 47 and 57.
Abstract: Disclosed are the expression of a recombinant chicken IgY scFv antibody and monoclonal antibody raised against human thymidine kinase 1 (hTK1) in prokaryotic cells and a preparation method and use thereof. The scFv antibody includes an amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1. The anti-hTK1 recombinant scFv antibody and monoclonal antibody have good immunoreactivity, high specificity and sensitivity, and are easy to separate and purify.
Abstract: The present invention is based, in part, on the discovery of monoclonal antibodies, and antigen-binding fragments thereof, that specifically bind to HHLA2, as well as immunoglobulins, polypeptides, nucleic acids thereof, and methods of using such antibodies for diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic purposes.
