  • Publication number: 20240018239
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides binding proteins, such as antibodies and antigen-binding fragments, which specifically bind to human CD200R1 receptor protein (hu-CD200R1) and are capable of decreasing, inhibiting, and/or fully-blocking immune regulatory effects mediated by hu-CD200R1. The present disclosure also provides methods of using the antibodies (and compositions thereof) to treat diseases and conditions responsive to decreasing, inhibiting and/or blocking immune regulatory function or activity mediated by CD200 binding to CD200R1.

  • Publication number: 20230279082
    Abstract: The present invention relates to anti-HIV antibodies. Also disclosed are related methods and compositions. HIV causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), a condition in humans characterized by clinical features including wasting syndromes, central nervous system degeneration and profound immunosuppression that results in life-threatening opportunistic infections and malignancies. Since its discovery in 1981, HIV type 1 (HIV-1) has led to the death of at least 25 million people worldwide.

  • Publication number: 20230183343
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides binding proteins, such as antibodies and antigen-binding fragments, which specifically bind to human CD96 receptor protein (hu-CD96) and are capable of decreasing, inhibiting, and/or fully-blocking immune regulatory effects mediated by hu-CD96. The present disclosure also provides methods of using the antibodies (and compositions thereof) to treat diseases and conditions responsive to decreasing, inhibiting and/or blocking immune regulatory function or activity mediated by CD96 binding to CD155, including effects arising from CD96 interactions with CD226 and/or TIGIT.
