Provided herein are fusion protein constructs that can bind a complement-associated antigen, comprising a targeting moiety and a complement modulator protein, or a fragment thereof or a variant thereof. The targeting moiety is an antibody or an antigen binding fragment thereof, in some examples. Further provided are methods of using the fusion protein constructs, for example, in treating complement mediation conditions.

Marker Sequences for Diagnosing and Stratifying Systemic Sclerosis Patients

Budde, Petra
Jan 2021
The present invention relates to methods for identifying markers for systemic sclerosis (also scleroderma; SSc) and to the markers identified with the aid of this method, which can differentiate between SSc and other autoimmune diseases on the one hand and between different SSc subgroups on the other hand. The invention also relates to panels, diagnostic devices and test kits which comprise these markers, and to the use and application thereof, for example for the diagnosis, prognosis and therapy control of SSc. The invention also relates to methods for screening and for validating active substances for use in SSc.

The development of an efficacious and practicable vaccine conferring sterile immunity towards a Plasmodium infection represents a not yet achieved goal. A crucial factor for the impact of a given anti-plasmodial subunit vaccine is the identification of the most potent parasitic components required to induce protection from both infection and disease. Here, we present a method based on a novel high-density peptide array technology that allows for a flexible readout of malaria antibodies. Peptide arrays applied as a screening method can be used to identify novel immunogenic antibody epitopes under a large number of potential antigens/peptides. Ultimately, discovered antigen candidates and/or epitope sequences can be translated into vaccine prototype design. The technology can be further utilized to unravel antibody-mediated immune responses (e.g., involved in the establishment of semi-immunity) and moreover to confirm vaccine potency during the process of clinical development by verifying the induced antibody responses following vaccination.

Nov 2015
The invention relates to a method for identifying markers for systemic sclerosis (scleroderma, SSc) and to the markers identified by means of said method, which can differentiate between SSc and other autoimmune diseases and between different SSc sub-groups. The invention also relates to panels, diagnostic means, and test kits which comprise said markers and to the use and application thereof, for example for the diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy control for SSc. The invention further relates to methods for screening and validating active ingredients for use in SSc sub-groups.
