20080292641 | Antigenic GM-CSF peptides and antibodies to GM-CSF - Hybridoma lines that secrete human monoclonal antibodies with high binding specificity and biological activity, particularly neutralizing activity against granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor, and methods of generating the hybridoma lines are provided. Target antigens and epitopes are also provided. The antibodies may be used in therapeutic methods, for example in the treatment of cancer, infectious disease, or autoimmune disease. | 11-27-2008 |
20090155797 | Methods For Generating Enhanced Antibody-Producing Cell Lines With Improved Growth Characteristics - The use of mismatch repair (MMR) defective antibody producer cells offers a method to generate subclone variants with elevated protein production such as antibodies. Using MMR defective cells and animals, new cell lines and animal varieties with novel and useful properties such as enhanced protein production can be generated more efficiently than by relying on the natural rate of mutation. These methods are useful for generating genetic diversity within host cells to alter endogenous genes that can yield increased titer levels of protein production. By employing this method, two genes were discovered whose suppressed expression is associated with enhanced antibody production. Suppressed expression of these genes by a variety of methods leads to increased antibody production for manufacturing as well as strategies for modulating antibody production in immunological disorders. Moreover, the suppression of these two genes in host cells can be useful for generating universal high titer protein production lines. | 06-18-2009 |
20090202559 | Anti-Mesothelin Antibodies - This invention relates to the use of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies that specifically bind to and become internalized by mesothelin-positive cells and also induce an immune effector activity such as antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity. The antibodies are useful in specific delivery of pharmacologic agents to mesothelin expressing cells as well as eliciting an immune-effector activity particularly on tumor cells and precursors. The invention is also related to cells expressing the monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, antibody derivatives, such as human, humanized, and chimeric monoclonal antibodies, antibody fragments, mammalian cells expressing the monoclonal antibodies, derivatives and fragments, and methods of treating cancer using the antibodies, derivatives and fragments. | 08-13-2009 |
20100311169 | Methods Of Generating High-Production Of Antibodies From Hybridomas Created By In Vitro Immunization - The invention provides methods for generating high titers of high-affinity antibodies from hybridoma cells produced by fusing myeloma cells with in vitro immunized donor cells. The hybridoma cells or mammalian expression cells with cloned antibody genes from the hybridomas producing the high-affinity antibodies may be mismatch repair defective due to defects of endogenous mismatch repair subunits of through expression of a dominant negative allele of a mismatch repair gene which allows the hybridoma cell to be hypermutable, may be rendered hypermutable by chemical means, or may be naturally mismatch repair deficient. High-affinity antibodies and high titer producer cells producing antibodies may be prepared by the methods of the invention. | 12-09-2010 |
