Abstract: The present invention relates to amino acid sequences that block the interaction between (a target on) an antigen presenting cell (APC) and (a target on) a T-cell. More particularly, the present invention relates to amino acid sequences that are directed against (as defined herein) a target on an APC (also referred to herein as “APC target”) or a target on a T-cell (also referred to herein as “T-cell target”). The invention further relates to compounds or constructs, and in particular proteins and polypeptides, that comprise or essentially consist of one or more such amino acid sequences.

Abstract: The present invention relates to specific delivery of agrochemicals to plants. More specifically, it relates to a composition, essentially consisting of a targeting agent comprising at least one binding domain that specifically binds to a binding site on an intact living plant and an agrochemical or a combination of agrochemicals. The present invention relates further to a binding domain that specifically binds the binding site on an intact living plant. More specifically, it relates to binding domains comprising an amino acid sequence that comprises four framework regions and three complementary determining regions, or any suitable fragment thereof, whereby the binding domains are capable to bind or retain a carrier onto a plant. In one preferred embodiment, the invention relates to binding domains which specifically bind trichomes, stomata, cuticle, lenticels, thorns, spines, root hairs, or wax layer.

Abstract: Provided are pharmaceutical compositions, preparations or formulations including a compounds or constructs that include at least one amino acid sequence that is directed against serum albumin and at least one therapeutic moiety. The pharmaceutical compositions, preparations or formulations are preparations or formulations that are suitable for and/or intended for, e.g., pulmonary administration. Methods for use of the pharmaceutical compositions, preparations or formulations also are provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to amino acid sequences that are directed against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), as well as to compounds or constructs, and in particular proteins and polypeptides, that comprise or essentially consist of one or more such amino acid sequences. The amino acid sequences, compounds and constructs can be used for prophylactic, therapeutic or diagnostic purposes, such as for the treatment of conditions and diseases characterized by excessive and/or pathological angiogenesis or neovascularization.

Abstract: The present invention provides heavy chain variable domain antibodies (VHH) for preventing and/or dissolving aggregates. VHH of the invention are preferably used in the treatment of human diseases that are associated with the formation of aggregates in the body. The invention further provides, among others, means and methods for selecting and using VHH.

Abstract: The present invention relates to amino acid sequences that are capable of binding to serum proteins; to compounds, proteins, polypeptides, fusion proteins or constructs comprising or essentially consisting of such amino acid sequences; to nucleic acids that encode such amino acid sequences, compounds, proteins, polypeptides, fusion proteins or constructs; to compositions, and in particular pharmaceutical compositions, that comprise such amino acid sequences, compounds, proteins, polypeptides, fusion proteins or constructs; and to uses of such amino acid sequences, compounds, proteins, polypeptides, fusion proteins or constructs.
