Abstract: Single-domain monoclonal antibodies that specifically bind Lassa virus glycoprotein (GPC) are described. The single-domain antibodies (“nanobodies”) were isolated from camel (VHH) and shark variable new antigen (VNAR) phage display libraries panned against a stabilized form of the GPC trimer. The GPC-specific nanobodies, and conjugates thereof, can be used for the diagnosis and treatment of a Lassa virus infection.

Abstract: Monoclonal antibodies and antibody fragments that specifically bind to matrilin-3, conjugates including these molecules, and nucleic acid molecules encoding the antibodies, antigen binding fragments and conjugates, are disclosed. Also disclosed are compositions including the disclosed antibodies, antigen binding fragments, conjugates, and nucleic acid molecules. Methods of treating or inhibiting a cartilage disorder in a subject, as well as methods of increasing chondrogenesis in cartilage tissue are further provided. The methods can be used, for example, for treating or inhibiting a growth plate disorder in a subject, such as a skeletal dysplasia or short stature.
