Active variants of FGF with improved specificity

The present invention provides active fibroblast growth factor variants demonstrating enhanced receptor subtype specificity. The preferred novel variants retain binding to FGF Receptor Type 3 (FGFR3) triggering intracellular downstream mechanisms leading to activation of a biological response. Methods of utilizing preferred FGF mutants in preparation of medicaments for the treatment of malignancies and skeletal disorders including osteoporosis and enhancing fracture healing and wound healing processes are provided.

Novel methods for therapeutic vaccination

A method is disclosed for inducing cell-mediated immunity against cellular antigens. More specifically, the invention provides for a method for inducing cytotoxic T-lymphocyte immunity against weak antigens, notably self-proteins. The method entails that antigen presenting cells are induced to present at least one CTL epitope of the weak antigen and at the same time presenting at least one foreign T-helper lymphocyte epitope. In a preferred embodiment, the antigen is a cancer specific antigen, e.g. PSM, Her2, or FGF8b. The method can be exercised by using traditional polypeptide vaccination, but also by using live attenuated vaccines or nucleic acid vaccination. The invention furthermore provides immunogenic analogues of PSM, Her2 and FGF8b, as well as nucleic acid molecules encoding these analogues. Also vectors and transformed cells are disclosed. The invention also provides for a method for identification of immunogenic analogues of weak or non-immunogenic antigens.

Muteins of Fibroblast Growth Factor 21

The present invention relates to novel muteins of human fibroblast growth factor 21 with reduced deamidation compared to wild-type human FGF-21. Both protein and the respective encoding nucleic acid species are disclosed. The invention also embodies vectors and host cells for the propagation of said nucleic acid sequences and the production of said muteins. Also disclosed are methods for treating type 2 diabetes, obesity, or metabolic syndrome.
