Abstract: New sarcoma cell surface targets have been identified and include LINGO-1, KCNN1 and CDH23. Specific binding agents that specifically bind to these targets include antibodies and aptamers. Methods of treating sarcoma utilize the specific binding agents. Methods of diagnosing and detecting sarcoma, including metastases and residual disease involve determining the expression of LINGO-1, KCNN1 and CDH23.

Abstract: A method of identifying at least one consensus sequence for an intracellular antibody (ICS) comprising the steps of: creating a database comprising sequences of validated intracellular antibodies (VIDA database) and aligning the sequences of validated intracellular antibodies according to Kabat; determining the frequency with which a particular amino acid occurs in each of the positions of the aligned antibodies; selecting a frequency threshold value (LP or consensus threshold) in the range from 70% to 100%; identifying the positions of the alignment at which the frequency of a particular amino acid is greater than or equal to the LP value; and identifying the most frequent amino acid, in the position of said alignment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an IRES element that is operably linked to one or more coding sequences, wherein the IRES element expresses said coding sequences in an endothelial cell.

Abstract: The present invention relates to antibodies that function within an intracellular environment.

Abstract: The invention related to intracellular single domain immunoglobulins, and to a method for determining the ability of an immunoglobulin single domain to bind to a target in an intracellular environment, comprising the steps of: a) providing a first molecule and a second molecule, wherein stable interaction of the first and second molecules leads to the generation of a signal; b) providing a single intracellular immunoglobulin domain which is associated with the first molecule, said single immunoglobulin domain being free of complementary immunoglobulin domains; c) providing an intracellular target which is associated with the second molecule, such that association of the immunoglobulin domain and the target leads to stable interaction of the first and second molecules and generation of the signal; and d) assessing the intracellular interaction between the immunoglobulin domain and the target by monitoring the signal.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an antisense nucleic acid molecule comprising a first region and a second region, both of which are complementary to a target nucleic acid molecule, and wherein the first region is available for hybridization and the second region is temporarily masked. The antisense molecules of the invention display increased specificity and stability of binding.
