Abstract: A chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), a cell (particularly an immune cell such as a regulatory T cell) expressing said CAR, a nucleic acid or vector encoding said CAR and various uses of said CAR, cell, nucleic acid or vector is disclosed herein. Particularly, a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) comprising an antigen recognition domain that specifically binds to ENTPD3, is provided.

Abstract: A method for determining or diagnosing the presence or absence, or the risk of development, or the therapy control of autoimmune hepatitis in a subject is provided. In a method, the presence or absence of antibodies against the huntingtin interacting protein 1 related protein (HIP1R) or against immunoreactive peptides derived therefrom are analyzed, the presence of said antibodies is indicative for the presence, or the risk of development or for therapy control of autoimmune hepatitis of the subject. The use of the HIP1R or an immunoreactive peptide derived therefrom in the diagnosis, the risk assessment or therapy control of hepatitis diseases by determining the presence of antibodies against said HIP1R or immunoreactive peptide derived therefrom, may be helpful for differential diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis.

Abstract: The invention provides an optimized and far potent chimeric antigen receptor for its use in the treatment of HvG disease in a patient having received a transplant, for use in suppressing the hosts immune response directed against the transplant. The fusion protein is adapted for use in suppressing the immune rejection of a transplant which contains or expresses HLA-A*02 in a recipient patient who is negative for HLA-A*02, i.e. the patient prior to transplantation does not express HLA-A*02. The fusion protein is a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), which upon expression in regulatory T-cells (Treg) causes a specific suppressor activity of the regulatory T-cells in the presence of HLA-A*02.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a method for determining or diagnosing the presence or absence, or the risk of development, or the therapy control of autoimmune hepatitis in a subject, in particular, in mammals. In addition, the present invention relates to test kits for use in the diagnosis or the determination of the presence or absence, or the risk of development or the therapy control of autoimmune hepatitis in a subject. In particular, the present invention relates to a method wherein the presence or absence of antibodies against the huntingtin interacting protein 1 related protein (HIP1 R) or against immunoreactive peptides derived therefrom are analyzed, the presence of said antibodies is indicative for the presence, or the risk of development or for therapy control of autoimmune hepatitis of said subject.
