20090220521 | Anti MIF Antibodies - The present invention relates to monoclonal antibodies and antigen-binding portions thereof that specifically bind to the C-terminal or the center region of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF). These anti-MIF antibodies and antigen-binding portions thereof further inhibit human MIF biological function. The invention also relates to isolated heavy and light chain immunoglobulins derived from anti-MIF antibodies and nucleic acid molecules encoding such immunoglobulins. The present invention also relates to a method of identifying anti-MIF antibodies, pharmaceutical compositions comprising these antibodies and a method of using these antibodies and compositions for the treatment of MIF-related conditions. | 09-03-2009 |

These anti-MIF antibodies and antigen-binding portions thereof further inhibit human MIF biological function. The invention also relates to isolated heavy and light chain immunoglobulins derived from anti-MIF antibodies and nucleic acid molecules encoding such immunoglobulins. The present invention also relates to a method of identifying anti-MIF antibodies, pharmaceutical compositions comprising these antibodies and a method of using these antibodies and compositions for the treatment of MIF-related conditions. | 10-14-2010 |
20110020331 | N-GLYCOSYLATED ANTIBODY - The invention relates to a monoclonal antibody or derivative or fragment thereof that is derived from a parental monoclonal antibody, that recognizes the Lewis Y antigen, characterized in that the Fc region or region equivalent to the Fc region of said antibody or derivative or fragment thereof carries a bi-sected hybrid type N-glycosylation pattern and that said antibody shows at least 10 fold increased ADCC and at least 10% reduced CDC activity. | 01-27-2011 |
20140287443 | CHARACTERIZATION OF CHO-MIF GENE AND PROTEIN, AND USE THEREOF - The present invention is concerned with the specific and highly sensitive detection of specific CHO-MIF (macrophage migration inhibitory factor from Chinese Ovarian Hamster cell line) complexes in the production of anti-MIF antibodies. The present invention is further concerned with the provision of specific antibodies which can be used for a CHO-MIF detection method. The present invention is also concerned with a CHO MIF knockout cell line and use thereof. The present invention also provides preparations obtained from recombinant production in CHO cell lines which are essentially free of CHO-MIF. | 09-25-2014 |
