20090324554 | METHOD FOR INHIBITING OR TREATING A DISEASE ASSOCIATED WITH INTRACELLULAR FORMATION OF PROTEIN FIBRILLAR OR AGGREGATES - A therapeutic agent which carries a peptide sequence containing a mammalian cell adhesion sequence can be used to inhibit or treat diseases associated with intracellular formation of protein fibrillar inclusions or aggregates, to inhibit the intracellular formation of protein fibrillar inclusions or aggregates, and to disaggregate pre-formed intracellular protein fibrillar inclusions or aggregates. Filamentous bacteriophage which displays a non-filamentous bacteriophage RGD cell adhesion sequence on its surface, but not an antibody or non-filamentous bacteriophage antigen other than said RGD cell adhesion sequence, is a preferred embodiment of such a therapeutic agent. | 12-31-2009 |

20090280114 | PREVENTION OF BRAIN INFLAMMATION AS A RESULT OF INDUCED AUTOIMMUNE RESPONSE - A disease characterized by amyloid aggregation in a patient may be prevented or treated by causing antibodies against a peptide component of the amyloid deposit to come into contact with the aggregated or soluble amyloid. In order to decrease the risk of inflammation in such a method, the Fc receptors of the patient are blocked, preferably by administration of an effective amount of IVIg, prior to the procedure of causing the antibodies to come into contact with the amyloid. | 11-12-2009 |
20110142858 | Method of Passsive Immunization Against Disease or Disorder Charcterized by Amyloid Aggregation with Diminished Risk of Neuroinflammation - Unglycosylated anti-amyloid antibodies maintained all the antigen recognition functions of the native glycosylated anti-amyloid antibodies but without, or with a much reduced, property of triggering Fc receptor-mediated inflammation response in the brain. Such unglycosylated antibodies can be used in a method for preventing, inhibiting, or treating a disease or disorder characterized by amyloid aggregation with a diminished risk of triggering or exacerbating neuroinflammation. | 06-16-2011 |

20080241169 | IMMUNIZATION AGAINST AMYLOID PLAQUES USING DISPLAY TECHNOLOGY - A strategy for immunizing against amyloid plaques using display technology. The strategy includes methods, agents, and pharmaceutical compositions for vaccination against plaque forming diseases (e.g., Alzheimer's disease) that rely upon presentation of an antigen or epitope on a display vehicle. The strategy further includes methods, agents, and pharmaceutical compositions for vaccination against plaque forming diseases (e.g., Alzheimer's disease) that rely upon presentation of an antibody, or an active portion thereof, on a display vehicle. Whether antigens or antibodies are employed, desegregation of plaques results from the immunization. | 10-02-2008 |
