  • Publication number: 20040247608
    Abstract: A conjugate of a plurality of carbohydrate haptens and an aggregate (multimer) of monomeric units of a carrier moiety is provided. The conjugate may be used to elicit an immune response. The conjugate is preferably a carbohydrate-substituted aggregate of KLH monomers, in particular, a dimeric, trimeric or tetrameric aggregated. An aggregated STn-KLH conjugate is of particular interest.

  • Patent number: 6602660
    Abstract: Methods of detecting activated T-cells involve monitoring levels of MUC-1 mucin expression at the protein and/or mRNA level. Compositions for modulating immune function contain compounds that modulate the expression or function of MUC-1. Methods of treating disorders associated an inappropriate state of T-cell activation involve contacting a T-cell with a compound containing an inhibitor of MUC-1 expression or function.

  • Patent number: 6600012
    Abstract: A method for generating a mixture of activated T-cells by combining a plurality of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) with an antigen-loaded liposome to produce antigen-loaded PBLs, and combining the antigen-loaded PBLs with a naive, anergic or memory T-cell, to produce an activated T-cell. Such activation is carried out in vivo or in vitro. The antigen-loaded PBLs and activated T-cells, prepared according to the methods of invention, have use as cellular vaccines for treatment of cancer and viral diseases.

  • Patent number: 6582697
    Abstract: DTH-Effector cells are primed with carbohydrate antigens and used to enhance the cellular immune response. Tumors have been inhibited by DTH-Effector cells primed with epiglycanin and with synthetic T and Tn antigens. Either the DTH-Effector cells, or these tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens directly, may be used for tumor prophylaxis and therapy.

  • Publication number: 20020142983
    Abstract: The invention provides compounds and compositions of containing intracellular inhibitors of the mucin MUC-1. These intracellular MUC-1 inhibitors are exemplified by protein-based inhibitors that contain a targeting and/or an internalization domain, and by antisense nucleic acids. These inhibitors are useful in methods of treating autoimmune disorders.
