TARGET PEPTIDES FOR IMMUNOTHERAPY AND DIAGNOSTICS
A set of target peptides are presented by HLA A*0101, A*0201, A*0301, B*4402, B*2705, B*1402, and B*0702 on the surface of disease cells. They are envisioned to among other things (a) stimulate an immune response to the proliferative disease, e.g., cancer, (b) to function as immunotherapeutics in adoptive T cell therapy or as a vaccine, (c) facilitate antibody recognition of tumor boundaries in surgical pathology samples, (d) act as biomarkers for early detection and/or diagnosis of the disease, and (e) act as targets in the generation antibody-like molecules which recognize the target-peptide/MHC complex.
Anti-human beta klotho antibody or binding fragment thereof and methods of their use
The present disclosure provides binding proteins, such as antibodies, and binding fragments thereof, that bind beta klotho, including human beta klotho, and exemplary specific sequences of their complementarity determining regions, variable regions, heavy chains, and light chains. The present disclosure also provides method of making the antibody or fragment thereof and methods of their use, including, in activating beta-klotho/FGF receptor complex, inducing FGF19-like and/or FGF21-like signaling, improving glucose and lipid metabolism, and treatment of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.
COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR DELIVERY OF BIOMACROMOLECULE AGENTS
The present invention relates to nanoparticles complexed with biomacromolecule agents configured for treating, preventing or ameliorating various types of disorders, and methods of synthesizing the same. In particular, the present invention is directed to compositions comprising nanoparticles (e.g., synthetic high density lipoprotein (sHDL)) carrying biomacromolecule agents (e.g., nucleic acid, peptides, glycolipids, etc.), methods for synthesizing such nanoparticles, as well as systems and methods utilizing such nanoparticles (e.g., in diagnostic and/or therapeutic settings).
NUCLEIC ACID COMPRISING OR CODING FOR A HISTONE STEM-LOOP AND A POLY(A) SEQUENCE OR A POLYADENYLATION SIGNAL FOR INCREASING THE EXPRESSION OF AN ENCODED TUMOUR ANTIGEN
The present invention relates to a nucleic acid sequence, comprising or coding for a coding region, encoding at least one peptide or protein comprising a tumour antigen or a fragment, variant or derivative thereof, at least one histone stem-loop and a poly(A) sequence or a polyadenylation signal. Furthermore the present invention provides the use of the nucleic acid for increasing the expression of said encoded peptide or protein. It also discloses its use for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition, especially a vaccine, e.g. for use in the treatment of cancer or tumour diseases. The present invention further describes a method for increasing the expression of a peptide or protein comprising a tumour antigen or a fragment, variant or derivative thereof, using the nucleic acid comprising or coding for a histone stem-loop and a poly(A) sequence or a polyadenylation signal.

TARGET PEPTIDES FOR OVARIAN CANCER THERAPY AND DIAGNOSTICS
A set of target peptides are presented by HLA A*0201 on the surface of ovarian cancer cells. They are envisioned to among other things (a) stimulate an immune response to the proliferative disease, e.g., ovarian cancer, (b) function as immunotherapeutics in adoptive T-cell therapy or as a vaccine, (c) facilitate antibody recognition of tumor boundaries in surgical pathology samples, (d) act as biomarkers for early detection and/or diagnosis of the disease, and (e) act as targets in the generation antibody-like molecules which recognize the target-peptide/MHC complex.
SAMRNA VACCINE AND PREPARATION METHOD THEREFOR
Disclosed is an SamRNA vaccine, including a recombinant viral vector which includes: i) a viral gene replication complex including nucleotide sequences encoding viral gene replication-related proteins nsP1, nsP2, nsP3, and nsP4; and ii) a nucleotide sequence encoding at least one antigen. According to the SamRNA vaccine of the present invention, in addition to that a promoter of a modified adenoviral vector itself can transcribe an antigen gene to form mRNA, the viral gene replication-related proteins nsP1-4 use RNA as a template to synthesize a large amount of mRNAs, and the immune effect of a target antigen is greatly improved.
