20230057622 · 2023-02-23 ·

Disclosed is a use of recombinant human neuregulin derivatives in preparing a medicine for preventing, treating, or reducing the progression of cardiovascular diseases in mammals. In particular, the present invention relates to a novel recombinant human NRG-FC protein and a use thereof in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. The protein has a prolonged half-life and enhanced biological activity.

CHIMERIC ANTIGEN RECEPTOR TO CARBOHYDRATE ANTIGENS

The present invention discloses chimeric antigen receptors that specifically recognize and bind to SLe A carbohydrate antigen with high specificity and selectivity. The invention further provides lymphocytic cells, such as T cells, comprising said CARs, compositions comprising said cells or CARs as well as uses thereof.

UNIVERSAL CAR-T TARGETING T-CELL LYMPHOMA CELL AND PREPARATION METHOD THEREFOR AND USE THEREOF

A novel preparation method for a universal CAR-T cell targeting a T-cell lymphoma cell, the universal CAR-T cell prepared by means of the method and a biological product comprising the universal CAR-T cell. The preparation method for the universal CAR-T cell targeting a T-cell lymphoma cell comprises: obtaining a T cell from a human donor having a healthy lymphatic system, and then disrupting a TRAC genome region and a B2M genome region in the T cell by means of a gene editing technology, so that CAR molecules targeting the T-cell lymphoma cell TCRα/β are stably expressed in the T cell. The universal CAR-T cell targeting a T-cell lymphoma cell prepared by means of the preparation method eliminates the natural TCR expression of a T cell, greatly reduces the graft-versus-host reaction, and meanwhile, also greatly reduces the immunogenicity thereof, and can continuously and efficiently kill the T-cell lymphoma cell.

NOVEL DOMINANT NEGATIVE FAS POLYPEPTIDES, CELLS COMPRISING THEREOF AND USES THEREOF

The present disclosure provides novel dominant negative Fas polypeptides comprising a first modification in the cytoplasmic domain and a second modification in the N-terminal region of human Fas. The present disclosure also provides cells comprising such novel dominant negative Fas polypeptides and an antigen-recognizing receptor (e.g., a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) or a T cell receptor (TCR)). Also provided are uses of the cells for treatment, e.g., for treating tumors and pathogen infections.

IMMUNOLOGIC EFFECTOR CELL OF TARGETED CLD18A2, AND PREPARATION METHOD AND USE THEREOF
20220363751 · 2022-11-17 ·

Disclosed are a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) targeting CLD18A2, and preparation method and use thereof. The extracellular binding region of the CAR comprises a protein specifically recognizing CLD18A2. The immune effector cell modified by the CAR can be used to treat tumors such as pancreatic cancer and stomach cancer.

METHODS OF TREATING FRAGILE X SYNDROME WITH REELIN
20230054593 · 2023-02-23 ·

Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common inherited form of human intellectual disability. FXS is caused by loss of function of the FMR1 gene which results in significant behavioral deficits in spatial learning and memory tests. FMR1−/− knockout mice share many of the learning deficits and decreased synaptic function encountered in FXS patients. Anecdotal evidence indicates a reduction in the amount of Reelin, a large extracellular signaling protein important for normal hippocampal synaptic plasticity, may play role in the etiology of FXS. Disclosed herein is a rAAV9 Reelin viral vector expressing a REELIN repeat R3+R6 fusion protein that is shown to rescue cognitive deficits in FMR1−/− mice as evaluated in the Hidden Platform Water Maze, Open Field and Fear Conditioning. Reelin gene therapy is therefore potentially a novel therapeutic for the treatment of Fragile X Syndrome.
