  • Publication number: 20250136682
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is generally directed to antibodies against the Siglec-3, and pharmaceutical compositions that comprise the antibodies. According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the present anti-Siglec-3 antibodies may suppress the over activation of Siglec-3, thereby reversing the immunosuppression effects resulted therefrom. As such, the present antibodies may treat diseases associated with the over activation of Siglec-3, such as hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, neurodegenerative diseases, autoimmune diseases, or cancers. Accordingly, the present disclosure also includes methods for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of the above diseases.
