Abstract: Arcuate fixation members with varying configurations and/or features are provided, along with additional components for use therewith in provided fixation systems and intervertebral implant systems. The arcuate fixation members may be of varying lengths, cross sectional geometries, and/or cross sectional areas, and may be configured with various features such as heads configured to accept other fixation system components, tabs to allow arcuate fixation member-in-arcuate fixation member or fixation anchor-in-arcuate fixation member configurations. Applications of fixation systems and intervertebral implants systems utilizing arcuate fixation members are particularly suitable when a linear line-of-approach for delivering fixation members is undesirable.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of diabetes. More specifically, the present invention provides compositions and methods useful for diagnosing and treating Type I diabetes. In one embodiment, a method comprises detecting a nucleotide sequence encoding SEQ ID NO:1 from a biological sample obtained from a patient. In another embodiment, the present invention provides an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof that specifically binds SEQ ID NO:1. In a further embodiment, the present invention provides an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof that specifically binds (i) a B-cell receptor expressed on a lymphocyte, wherein the B-cell receptor comprises SEQ ID NO:1; or (ii) a free-floating antibody comprising SEQ ID NO:1.
