Abstract: The present invention discloses inhibitory antibodies against Factor VIII with modified glycosylation, either by enzymatic deglycosylation or by site directed mutagenesis. Said antibodies with modified glycosylation have equal affinity for FVIII but show different inhibiting properties. The use of one or a mixture of said antibodies allow modulation of the inhibition of factor VIII to levels between 40 and 95%. The present invention further discloses pharmaceutical compositions comprising inhibitory antibodies against Factor VIII with modified glycosylation, combinations of these antibodies and methods for treating haemostasis disorders using said antibodies and antibody mixtures.

Abstract: The present invention relates to new antibodies and fragments and derivatives thereof. These antibodies bind to the A2 domain of Factor VIII (FVIII) of the coagulation pathway and inhibit the coagulation activity of FVIII. The antibodies are particularly suited for the characterization of the structure and function of FVIII, for the design of therapeutic strategies for eradication of FVIII inhibitors and for the use as a medicament. The invention also relates to cell lines producing the specific antibodies. The present invention furthermore relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies, fragments and/or derivatives of the invention and to methods of preventing and treating cardiovascular disorders by using the antibodies or fragments and derivatives thereof or pharmaceutical compositions thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the induction of immune tolerance, by a novel method of induction of IL-10 production in B cells, whereby said B cells can be loaded with antigen before, during or after the induction of the IL-10 production. More specifically, the invention relates to the transduction of the B cell with a retroviral vector encoding an antigen, whereby the retroviral envelop induces IL-10 production in the B cell by activation the TLR2 receptor, in combination with its viral receptor.
