The present invention relates to CX3CR1-binding polypeptides, in particular polypeptides comprising specific immunoglobulin domains. The invention also relates to nucleic acids encoding such polypeptides; to methods for preparing such polypeptides; to host cells expressing or capable of expressing such polypeptides; to compositions comprising such polypeptides; and to uses of such polypeptides or such compositions, in particular for prophylactic, therapeutic and diagnostic purposes.

The present application relates to anti-PD-L1 antibodies and their use to detect PD-L1 in a sample from a subject. In some embodiments, the subject has been treated with a therapeutic anti-PD-L1 antibody and an anti-PD-L1 described herein does not compete for binding to PD-L1 with the therapeutic anti-PD-L1 antibody. In some embodiments, the anti-PD-L1 antibody is linked to a detectable moiety, such as a fluorophore and the anti-PD-L1 antibody is used to detect PD-L1 in a subject using flow cytometry.

The present disclosure provides binding proteins, such as antibodies and antigen-binding fragments, which specifically bind to human CD96 receptor protein (hu-CD96) and are capable of decreasing, inhibiting, and/or fully-blocking immune regulatory effects mediated by hu-CD96. The present disclosure also provides methods of using the antibodies (and compositions thereof) to treat diseases and conditions responsive to decreasing, inhibiting and/or blocking immune regulatory function or activity mediated by CD96 binding to CD155, including effects arising from CD96 interactions with CD226 and/or TIGIT.

The present invention provides to a bispecific antibody construct comprising a first human binding domain which binds to human CDH19 on the surface of a target cell and a second binding domain which binds to human CD3 on the surface of a T cell. Moreover, the invention provides a polynucleotide encoding the antibody construct, a vector comprising said polynucleotide and a host cell transformed or transfected with said polynucleotide or vector. Furthermore, the invention provides a process for the production of the antibody construct of the invention, a medical use of said antibody construct and a kit comprising said antibody construct.

The present application discloses methods of making anti-hepsin antibodies, anti-hepsin antibodies, methods of screening the activity of anti-hepsin antibodies, pharmaceutical compositions of anti-hepsin antibodies, kits containing anti-hepsin antibodies, and methods of using anti-hepsin antibodies to diagnose a cancer.

The present invention addresses the problem of providing a means for detecting a constituting protein of nucleocapsid derived from SARS-CoV-2. This problem has been solved by providing an antibody binding to a constituting protein of nucleocapsid derived from SARS-CoV-2 or a fragment of the antibody, a method for detecting a constituting protein of the SARS-CoV-2-derived nucleocapsid with the use of the antibody or a fragment thereof, a kit for detecting a constituting protein of the SARS-CoV-2-derived nucleocapsid, said kit containing the antibody or a fragment thereof, etc.

The present invention relates to antibody-based probes (including single domain antibody fragment, scFv molecules, antibodies, antibody fragments, diabodies, and the epitope-binding domains thereof) that are capable of immunospecifically and selectively binding to a phospho-serine-containing epitope of Tau, such as, for example, Tau-phospho-serine 396/404 peptide. Such imaging ligands are useful to detect pathological Tau protein conformer if present in a biological sample, especially in conjunction with the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease or other tauopathy, and thus provide a diagnostic for Alzheimer's disease and other Tau pathologies. The scFv molecules of the present invention have utility as diagnostic markers for, Alzheimer's disease and related tauopathies and as pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of such conditions.

The present disclosure provides in one aspect monoclonal antibodies that bind α-Synuclein. In certain aspects, the antibodies preferentially bind to α-Synuclein fibrils over α-Synuclein monomer. In other aspects, the disclosure provides a method of treating, ameliorating, and/or preventing α-Synucleopathic disease in a subject, comprising administering any one of the antibodies of the disclosure to the subject. In yet other aspects, the disclosure provides methods of detecting α-Synuclein fibrils using any one of the antibodies of the disclosure.

The present disclosure relates to an oligopeptide. The oligopeptide includes an amino acid sequence. The amino acid sequence includes a binding motif, and the binding motif has a specific amino acid sequence. The present disclosure also relates to a testing kit including the oligopeptide and a medical composition including the oligopeptide.

Disclosed are a natural killer (NK) cell expressing an anti-cotinine chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) specifically binding to cotinine, and a cell therapeutic agent containing the NK cell. The CAR-expressing NK cell which specifically binds cotinine, can effectively move to tumor tissue, regardless of the kind of cancer, depending on the binding substance bound to cotinine. Therefore, the natural killer cell can be usefully employed as a gene therapy exhibiting a highly efficient anticancer effect.
