Abstract: The present invention is concerned with a protein oligomer comprising at least two NC-1 monomers of human collagen 18 or fragments of an NC-1 monomer of human collagen 18 for use in the treatment or prevention of an angiogenesis-related disease. The invention further pertains to a fusion protein comprising a NC-1 monomer of human collagen 18 and a Fc domain of an immunoglobulin. The invention also relates to a fusion protein comprising: a) an endostatin peptide or endostatin-derived peptide and b) the RGD motif and/or PHSRN motif of Fibronectin. The invention further relates to a kit comprising the protein oligomer or fusion proteins of the invention.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides antibodies that bind to human interleukin-6 (IL6). The antibodies can modulate IL6 signaling and thus used in treatment or prevention of IL6 associated diseases or disorders, particularly inflammatory disorder, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), angiogenesis, and cancer.

Abstract: The invention provides nucleic acids, peptides, and antibodies for use in applications including diagnosis and therapy. The peptides target neovasculature and were identified by in vivo phage display. One such peptide, SP5-52, recognized the neovasculature of multiple tumors in SCID mice, but did not target normal blood vessels. This peptide also binds to blood vessels of human lung cancer biopsy specimens. Liposomes comprising SP5-52 and doxorubicin enhanced the efficacy of the drug against multiple human cancer xenografts in SCID mice.

Abstract: The present invention provides a peptide marker targeting to nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells and application thereof. The peptide binds specifically to the cell surface of NPC cells. After conjugated with liposome containing chemotherapeutic drugs, such peptides deliver chemotherapeutic drugs to the tumor cells specifically and destruct tumor cells without damaging normal tissues and organs. Furthermore, such peptide is applied as a detector in the development of NPC diagnosis kit.
