Patent

CA 2669049

Provided herein are dual epitope polypeptides and electrophilic analogs thereof having a superantigenic epitope and at least one other epitope effective to induce the production of antibodies with binary specificity for the epitopes on a polypeptide antigen. Also, provided are electrophilic analogs of polyclonal B cell stimulants or lipids, polysaccharides and lipopolysaccharides or nucleotides. In addition, provided herein are methods for increasing production of binary epitope specific antibodies recognizing B cell polypeptide antigens, for stimulating production of antibodies using one or more of the polypeptides or electrophilic analogs and for isolating binary epitope specific antibodies or fragments thereof. Further provided are the antibodies so produced and methods of treating HIV using the same.

Cette invention a trait à des polypeptides à deux épitopes et à leurs analogues électrophiles comportant un épitope superantigénique et au moins un autre épitope efficace pour induire la production d'anticorps à spécificité binaire reconnaissant les épitopes d'un antigène polypeptidique. L'invention a également trait à des analogues électrophiles de stimulants des lymphocytes B polyclonaux, ou des lipides, des polysaccharides et des lipopolysaccharides ou des nucléotides. Par ailleurs, l'invention concerne des procédés permettant d'augmenter la production d'anticorps spécifiques des épitopes binaires reconnaissant les antigènes polypeptidiques des lymphocytes B, en vue de stimuler la production d'anticorps en utilisant un ou plusieurs des polypeptides ou analogues électrophiles, et d'isoler des anticorps spécifiques d'épitopes binaires ou leurs fragments. L'invention concerne en outre les anticorps produits de cette manière, ainsi que des procédés de traitement du VIH utilisant lesdits anticorps.
