Abstract: The invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for the modulation of effector T cell responses made of one or more preparations and comprising a therapeutically effective dose of at least one recombinant human C3-derivative and of at least one antigen or allergen.

Abstract: The invention provides isolated polypeptides having complement-modulating activity. Specifically, the invention resides in the provision of isolated polypeptides having complement depleting properties, i.e. that effect an efficient consumption of complement in human serum. The current invention thus provides human C3 derivatives that are capable of forming C3 convertases exerting an extended CVF, Bb-like half-life of up several hours, compared to 1.5 minutes of the naturally occurring C3 convertases, thus escaping the physiological degradation mechanisms.

Abstract: This invention relates to the field of recombinant antibody technology. It provides novel recombinant IgY antibody constructs for diagnostic and therapeutical applications. The bivalent antibody constructs display a heterotetrameric or homodimeric format stabilized by disulfide bonds. The constant heavy chain domains CH2-CH4 are partly or completely of avian origin, whereas the VH, VL, CL, and CH1 domains as well as the hinge region may be of avian origin or derived from any other species. The invention allows to combine the advantages of IgY antibodies with those of established mammalian monoclonal antibodies. IgY antibody constructs comprising nonglycosylated IgY constant heavy chain domains allow to reduce unwanted interactions with C-type lectins, e.g., in human sera.
