However, when comparing bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis in C57BL6 / J mice (overexpressing IL-4), IL-4 knockout and wild type, Izbicki et al. 2002 283(5): L1110-L1116) found no evidence to support the involvement of IL-4 in pulmonary fibrosis

Embodiment

[0339] 1. Preparation of monoclonal antibody and study of mouse monoclonal antibody 6A1

[0340] Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are generally prepared from hybridoma cells as taught by E Harlow and D Lane in Antibodies a Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, 1988 . As a result, the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and mouse B lymphocytes immunized with the target antigen was obtained. Hybridoma cells acquire the ability to proliferate indefinitely with the help of myeloma fusion partners, while the ability to produce antibodies is provided by B lymphocytes.

[0341] Five SJL mice were immunized by intraperitoneal injection of 2 μg each of E. coli-derived recombinant human IL-13 (Cambridge Bioscience, Cat. No. CH-013). The vaccination procedure used produced high titer anti-human IL-13 antibody immune responses in mice. After 5 inoculations within 64 days, mice were sacrificed and splenocytes were collected. Splenocytes from three mice were removed, and B lymphocytes ...

Abstract

The present invention concerns immunoglobulins, particularly antibodies which specifically bind human Interleukin 13 (hIL-13). Antibodies of the invention may be used in the treatment of a variety of diseases or disorders responsive to modulation of the interaction between hIL-13 and the human IL-13 receptor. Such diseases include severe asthma, atopic dermatitis, COPD and various fibrotic diseases. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising said antibodies and methods of manufacture are also disclosed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to immunoglobulins that specifically bind to interferon 13 (IL-13), especially human IL-13 (hIL-13). One embodiment of the invention relates to antibodies that specifically bind hIL-13. The present invention also relates to methods for treating diseases or disorders using the immunoglobulins, pharmaceutical compositions containing the immunoglobulins and methods for their preparation. Other aspects of the invention will be apparent from the following description. Background technique [0002] Interleukin-13 (IL-13) [0003] IL-13 is a 12 kDa secreted cytokine that was previously described as a T cell-derived cytokine capable of suppressing inflammatory cytokine production. Structural studies show that it has a four-helical bundle held together by two disulfide bonds. Although IL-13 has four potential glycosylation sites, analysis of native IL-13 in rat lungs revealed that it is produced as an unglycosylated molecule. ...
