A chromatography column for the use of separation of acidic sugar chains, wherein the column comprises a first column and a second column, the second column connected by a flow path downstream of an outlet of the first column, and selected from the following (1) or (2): (1) the carrier of the first column is hydrophobically modified silica having a group containing a primary amine, a secondary amine or/and a tertiary amine, and the carrier of the second column is a resin having a group containing a primary amine, a secondary amine or/and a tertiary amine; (2) the carrier of the first column is a resin having a group containing a primary amine, a secondary amine or/and a tertiary amine, and the carrier of the second column is hydrophobically modified silica having a group containing a primary amine, a secondary amine, or/and a tertiary amine.

A brain-penetrating composition of amyloid-ß binding peptide is disclosed. This may be useful in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, for example as a bifunctional molecule, comprising a blood-brain barrier crossing antibody and an amyloid-ß targeting peptide linked via an Fc fragment that is able to transmigrate across the blood-brain barrier into the brain, and compositions comprising same. Methods of using this composition for treating Alzheimer's disease are disclosed.

Provided is a modified Fc region. The Fc region has at least one amino acid mutation with respect to a parent Fc region. The modified Fc region has improved affinity to FcγRIIB with respect to the affinity of the parent Fc region to FcγRIIB Also provided is an antibody containing the modified Fc region, especially an agonistic antibody. The modified Fc region has significant use for optimizing the agonistic activity of the antibody.

The present invention concerns modified recombinant J-chain polypeptides, binding molecules, such as antibodies comprising the same, and their uses.

A method for promoting diversification of variable regions of an antibody, particularly a method for promoting diversification of the amino acid sequences of variable regions of an antibody generated by an avian B cell population, the method including suppressing the PI3Kα activity of each avian B cell comprised in the avian B cell population expressing the antibody.
