Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed to the use of compositions that include antibodies, e.g., monoclonal, chimeric, affinity-matured or humanized antibodies, antibody fragments, etc., that specifically bind one or more epitopes within a Sortilin protein, e.g., human Sortilin or mammalian Sortilin, and have improved and/or enhanced functional characteristics, in treating and/or delaying progression of a disease or injury in an individual in need thereof.

Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed to the use of antibodies that specifically bind one or more epitopes within a sortilin protein, e.g., human sortilin or mammalian sortilin, for treating and/or delaying progression of a disease, disorder, or injury in an individual in need thereof.

Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed to the use of compositions that include antibodies, e.g., monoclonal, chimeric, affinity-matured, humanized antibodies, antibody fragments, etc., that specifically bind one or more epitopes within a TREM2 protein, e.g., human TREM2, for use in treating and/or delaying progression of a disease or injury in an individual in need thereof.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and reagents for directing the selective targeting and entry of bacterial toxins to mammalian cells. Methods include the step of contacting a cell with a bacterial toxin or toxic bioactive fragment thereof associated with an antibody or ligand that is specific to a target on the cell, wherein the antibody or ligand selectively binds the target on the cell and the bacterial toxin or fragment thereof is internalized and enters the cell. The invention further encompasses compositions and kits to carry out the methods.
