Abstract: This disclosure relates to the use of anti-A? antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof to reduce brain amyloid plaques, or minimizes the occurrence of microhemorrhage during chronic dosing of an anti-A? antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof. For example, the disclosure relates to the method of reducing brain amyloid plaques, comprising administering to a subject an anti-A? antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof that binds to the same epitope as BIIB037 antibody, wherein the administration can reduce amyloid plaques in brain without affecting vascular amyloid, and wherein BIIB037 antibody binds to an epitope comprising amino acids 3-6 of A?.

Abstract: Monoclonal antibodies that specifically bind to M.96. Also included are methods of using these antibodies to treat mammals having or at risk of having 006-mediated diseases, or to diagnose % Q mediated diseases.

Abstract: The present invention is in the fields of cell biology, immunology and oncology. The invention provides humanized antibodies that recognize ?v?6 integrins, which antibodies comprise a variable region of nonhuman origin and at least a portion of an immunoglobulin of human origin. The invention also provides methods for preparation of such antibodies, pharmaceutical compositions comprising them, and methods of treating, diagnosing and/or preventing various diseases and disorders by administering the humanized anti-?v?6 antibodies of the invention. The invention also relates to the identification of differential expression of the integrin ?v?6 on the surfaces of tumor cells and tissues, the use of this differential expression in determining the metastatic potential of tumor cells, and methods of diagnosis and treatment/prevention of tumor metastasis and for elimination of residual metastatic tumor cells using ligands, particularly antibodies, that bind to integrin ?v?6.

Abstract: Hydrophobically-modified proteins and methods of making them are described. A hydrophobic moiety is attached to a surface amino acid residue of the protein. The hydrophobic moiety can be a lipid or a peptide. Alternatively, the protein can be derivatized by a wide variety of chemical reactions that append a hydrophobic structure to the protein. The preferred protein is of mammalian origin and is selected from the group consisting of Sonic, Indian, and Desert hedgehog. The hydrophobic moiety is used as a convenient tether to which may be attached a vesicle such as a cell membrane, liposome, or micelle.
