DESCRIPTION OF THE TEXT FILE SUBMITTED ELECTRONICALLY The contents of the text file submitted electronically herewith: A computer readable format copy of the Sequence Listing (filename: ORN-009PC_Sequence_listing; date recorded: February 3, 2017; file size: 386 KB). BACKGROUND Cancer is a global health challenge that causes nearly 7 million deaths each year worldwide and which has, to date, proven largely untreatable despite major advances in medicine. Frustratingly, cancers appear to develop strategies to evade immune detection and destruction thereby sidestepping the body's main protection against disease. Many recent immunotherapies have been developed to re-direct the body's immune system towards cancers. Immunotherapy provides the advantage of cell specificity that other treatment modalities, such as chemotherapy and radiation, lack. As such, methods for enhancing the efficacy of immune based therapies can be clinically beneficial. For example, costimulatory and coinhibitory molecules play a central role in the regulation of T cell immune responses. However, despite impressive patient responses to agents targeting these costimulatory and coinhibitory molecules, including, for example, clinical trials that led to the approval of YERVOY, KEYTRUDA, and OPDIVO, checkpoint inhibition therapy still fails in the overwhelming majority of patients. Further, most cancer treatments, including immunotherapies, require complex regimens of various agents - each typically bringing a complex pattern of side effects that narrows a patient's therapeutic window for treatment and makes the patient more susceptible to other diseases. Therefore, there remains a need for improved immunotherapeutic agents, including those that can effectively modulate the immune system in a multifunctional manner. SUMMARY In some aspects, the present invention relates to chimeric proteins which find use in various targeted cell methods. In some aspects, the present invention relates to chimeric proteins having two or more targeting moieties which have recognition domains (e.g. antigen recognition domains, including without limitation various antibody formats, inclusive of single-domain antibodies) which specifically bind to a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) of interest. The chimeric protein further comprises a modified (e.g. mutant) signaling agent (for instance, an immune-modulating agent), the modified (e.g. mutant) signaling agent having one or more modifications (e.g. mutations) that provide improved safety as compared to an unmodified (e.g. wild type) signaling agent. The targeting moieties and the modified (e.g. mutant) signaling agent are optionally connected by one or more linkers. In various embodiments, the targeting moieties having recognition domains that specifically bind to a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) of interest, including those found on one or more immune cells, which can include, without limitation, T cells, cytotoxic T lymphocytes, T helper cells, natural killer (NK) cells, natural killer T (NKT) cells, anti-tumor macrophages (e.g. M1 macrophages), neutrophils, B cells, and dendritic cells. In some embodiments, the recognition domains specifically bind to a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) of interest and effectively recruit one of more immune cells. In some embodiments, the targets (e.g. antigens, receptors) of interest can be found on one or more tumor cells. In these embodiments, the present chimeric proteins may recruit an immune cell, e.g. an immune cell that can kill and / or suppress a tumor cell, to a site of action (such as, by way of non-limiting example, the tumor microenvironment). Furthermore, not only can the present chimeric proteins directly or indirectly recruit cells that increase the likelihood of a beneficial effect, e.g. an anti-tumor effect, but also the present chimeric proteins may deliver important signaling to the cells via signaling agents (e.g. via one or more of an interferon, interleukin, TNF, EPO, etc.). Further, such signaling agents may be mutated such that the signaling is controlled and provides improved safety (e.g. does not come at the cost of systemic toxicity). Further still, in various embodiments, the present invention provides for various mutations to the signaling agents that can, for example, temper activity at a site of therapeutic action (e.g. at a therapeutic receptor) and also reduce or eliminate off-target binding at a non- therapeutic receptor. That is, in some embodiments, the signaling agents have reduced receptor promiscuity and controlled on-target action. In various embodiments, the signaling agent can modulate one or more cells that are targeted by the targeting moieties (e.g. recruited cells, such as disease cells and / or effector cells). For instance, the signaling agent can modulate one or both of the targeted cells (and the targeted cells can be effector and / or disease cells), depending on whether the targeted cells express a receptor for the signaling agent. In various embodiments, the present chimeric proteins find use in the treatment of various diseases or disorders such as cancer, infections, immune disorders, anemia, autoimmune diseases, cardiovascular diseases, wound healing, ischemia-related diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, metabolic diseases and many other diseases and disorders, and the present invention encompasses various methods of treatment.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The present invention is based, in part, on the surprising discovery that bi-specific chimeric proteins with signaling agents bearing therapeutically beneficial mutations provide beneficial therapeutic properties and reduced side effects. In various embodiments, these chimeric proteins may recruit the appropriate cells (e.g. immune cells) to site of in need of therapeutic action (e.g. a tumor cell) via the dual targeting moieties and, in addition, delivery one or more important signals to effect a therapeutic signal (e.g. via one or more modified signaling agents). The present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising the chimeric proteins and their use in the treatment of various diseases. Administration of the chimeric proteins and pharmaceutical compositions of the invention achieves significantly reduced side effects compared to the wild type soluble agent. Chimeric Proteins In various embodiments, the present invention relates to a bi-specific or multifunctional chimeric protein having two or more targeting moieties having recognition domains that specifically bind to a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) of interest, which optionally, and directly or indirectly, recruit cells of relevance and / or modulate the function of the recruited cells, and a modified signaling agent, which bears one or more mutations that render the signaling agent suitable for pharmaceutical use with minimal side effects (e.g. minimal cytokine storm-like effects, flu-like symptoms, suicidal thoughts, off-target side effects, among others). In various embodiments, the chimeric protein, among other features, directly or indirectly recruits one or more effector cells to a disease cell, e.g. via the targeting moieties, and further delivers a signal to the effector cell to modulate the disease cell in a therapeutically-relevant manner. In various embodiments, the chimeric protein, among other features, directly or indirectly recruits one or more effector cells to a disease cell, e.g. via the targeting moieties, and further delivers a signal to the disease cell to modulate the effector cell in a therapeutically-relevant manner. In various embodiments, the chimeric protein, among other features, directly or indirectly recruits one or more effector cells to a disease cell, e.g. via the targeting moieties, and further delivers a signal to the effector cell to modulate the effector cell in a therapeutically-relevant manner. In various embodiments, the chimeric protein, among other features, directly or indirectly recruits one or more effector cells to a disease cell, e.g. via the targeting moieties, and further delivers a signal to the disease cell to modulate the disease cell in a therapeutically-relevant manner. In some embodiments, the signaling agent effects effector cell and / or the disease cell. In various embodiments, the present chimeric protein provides at least two therapeutic benefits when used pharmaceutically. For instance, the present chimeric protein may effectively recruit proper cells to a site of required therapy (by way of non-limiting example, immune effector cells to a tumor, e.g. the tumor microenvironment) and deliver one or more signals to the cells - e.g. immune effector cells and / or tumor cells - to promote a cancer reducing or eliminating effect (e.g. provide immune cell stimulation from the signaling agent, provide immune co-stimulatory signals via the targeting domains, provide reduction or silencing of immune co- inhibitory signals via the targeting domains, etc.). Accordingly, as described herein, the present chimeric protein provides a platform of therapeutically-relevant options for the effective treatment of diseases via the immune system, including, without limitation, the treatment of cancer. Furthermore, the present chimeric protein, in various embodiments, has pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties that make it particularly suited for use in therapies. For example, in various embodiments, including embodiments in which smaller antibody-based formats are used for targeting (as described elsewhere herein), the present chimeric protein has a molecular weight that allows avoidance of renal excretion to allow for therapeutic effects at a low dose (e.g. without loss of the therapeutic via the kidney). For instance, the present chimeric protein, in various embodiments, is engineered to have a molecular mass of about 50 KDa, or about 60 KDa, or about 70 KDa, or about 80 KDa, or about 90 KDa, or about 100 KDa. In various embodiments, the present constructs evade kidney filtration such that they do not require external methods of half-life extension. In various embodiments, each of the individual chimeric proteins may by conjugated and / or fused with another agent to extend half-life or otherwise improve pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties. In some embodiments, the chimeric proteins may be fused or conjugated with one or more of PEG, XTEN (e.g., as rPEG), polysialic acid (POLYXEN), albumin (e.g., human serum albumin or HAS), elastin-like protein (ELP), PAS, HAP, GLK, CTP, transferrin, and the like. In some embodiments, the chimeric protein may be fused or conjugated with an antibody or an antibody fragment such as an Fc fragment. For example, the chimeric protein may be fused to either the N-terminus or the C-terminus of the Fc domain of human immunoglobulin (Ig) G. In various embodiments, each of the individual chimeric proteins is fused to one or more of the agents described in BioDrugs (2015) 29:215–239. As described herein, the present chimeric protein may have improved safety due to one of more modifications, e.g. mutations. In various embodiments, improved safety means that the present chimeric protein provides lower toxicity (e.g. systemic toxicity and / or tissue / organ-associated toxicities); and / or lessened or substantially eliminated side effects; and / or increased tolerability, lessened or substantially eliminated adverse events; and / or reduced or substantially eliminated off-target effects; and / or an increased therapeutic window. In some embodiments, the present chimeric protein increases the therapeutic index (e.g., by about 2-fold, about 5-fold, about 10-fold, about 25-fold, about 50-fold, about 100-fold, about 200-fold, or more) of any protein therapeutic (e.g., based on a naturally occurring or engineered protein or fragment thereof) by reducing the general toxicity of the protein and maintaining or increasing the selective effect of the protein on target cells or tissues. For instance, this increase in therapeutic index (e.g., by about 2-fold, about 5-fold, about 10-fold, about 25-fold, about 50-fold, about 100-fold, about 200-fold, or more) may be of the modified signaling agent (e.g. relative to the wild type signaling agent, or relative to a wild type signaling agent in the context of a fusion protein with a single targeting moiety, or relative to a wild type signaling agent in the context of a fusion protein with more than one targeting moieties). In some embodiments, the present chimeric protein allows for efficient binding of the targeting moieties and the signaling agent to their receptors. For instance, in some embodiments, the chimeric protein allows for efficient binding of one of the targeting moieties and the signaling agent to receptors on the same cell (e.g., different receptors) as well as the efficient binding of the other targeting moiety to another cell. As described elsewhere herein, in various embodiments, the signaling agent is mutated to provide attenuated activity, and the binding of the targeting moiety and the signaling agent to receptors on the same cell is sequential, e.g. targeting moiety / receptor binding preceding signaling agent / receptor binding. For instance, in some embodiments the signaling agent by itself is significantly less active in its mutated form (e.g. relative to wild type) because it cannot efficiently bind to its receptor(s). Accordingly, chimeric proteins of the invention are useful to avoid unwanted side effects caused by the signaling agent binding to its natural receptor on non-target cells. However, the signaling agent is active on target cells because the targeting moiety(ies) compensates for the missing / insufficient binding (e.g., without limitation and / or avidity) required for substantial activation. In various embodiments, the chimeric proteins of the present invention have a modified (e.g. mutant) signaling agent which causes the signaling agent to be inactive en route to the site of therapeutic activity (e.g. in contact with a target cell, including a tumor cell) through the body and to have its effect substantially on specifically targeted cell types which greatly reduces undesired side effects In various embodiments, the present chimeric proteins have selective bioactivity, e.g. therapeutically-relevant bioactivity, towards targeted cells (e.g. tumor cells), but not towards cells that are not targeted (e.g. normal, non- tumor cells). In various embodiments, the present chimeric proteins provide synergistic activity and / or therapeutic effects. In such embodiments, the activity and / or therapeutic effects of the chimeric proteins have improved therapeutic effects, e.g. synergistically greater, than the therapeutic effects of the individual components (i.e., the targeting moieties and the signaling agent) administered alone or in combination via co-administration. In various embodiments, the present chimeric proteins have two or more targeting moieties and the signaling agent connected together via different configurations. In an embodiment, one of the targeting moieties is linked to the amino-terminus of the signaling agent and the other targeting moiety is linked to the carboxy-terminus of the signaling agent. In another embodiment, both targeting moieties are linked to the amino-terminus of the signaling agent. For example, the amino-terminus of the signaling agent may be linked to the carboxy-terminus of one of the targeting moieties, which in turn is linked to the other targeting moiety (e.g., via its amino-terminus). In a further embodiment, both targeting moieties are linked to the carboxy-terminus of the signaling agent. For example, the carboxy-terminus of the signaling agent may be linked to the amino-terminus of one of the targeting moieties, which in turn is linked to the other targeting moiety (e.g., via its carboxy-terminus). In various embodiments, the present chimeric proteins are in the form of a fusion protein having the components described herein. In various embodiments, the present chimeric proteins have two or more targeting moieties that target different antigens or receptors, and one targeting moiety may be attenuated for its antigen or receptor, e.g. the targeting moiety binds its antigen or receptor with a low affinity or avidity (including, for example, at an affinity or avidity that is less than the affinity or avidity the other targeting moiety has for its for its antigen or receptor, for instance the difference between the binding affinities may be about 10-fold, or 25-fold, or 50-fold, or 100-fold, or 300-fold, or 500-fold, or 1000-fold, or 5000-fold; for instance the lower affinity or avidity targeting moiety may bind its antigen or receptor at a K<com:Sub>D< / com:Sub> in the mid- to high-nM or low- to mid-µM range while the higher affinity or avidity targeting moiety may bind its antigen or receptor at a K<com:Sub>D< / com:Sub> in the mid- to high-pM or low- to mid-nM range). For instance, in some embodiments, the present chimera comprises an attenuated targeting moiety that is directed against a promiscuous antigen or receptor, which may improve targeting to a cell of interest (e.g. via the other targeting moiety) and prevent effects across multiple types of cells, including those not being targeted for therapy (e.g. by binding promiscuous antigen or receptor at a higher affinity than what is provided in these embodiments). In various embodiments, the present invention provides for an isolated nucleic acid encoding a chimeric protein as described herein. Targeting Moiety Cellular Recruitment In various embodiments, the chimeric proteins of the present invention have targeting moieties having recognition domains which specifically bind to a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) of interest. In various embodiments, the chimeric proteins of the present invention have one or more targeting moieties which target different cells (e.g. to make a synapse) or the same cell (e.g. to get a more concentrated signaling agent or therapeutic effect). The target (e.g. antigen, receptor) of interest can be found on one or more immune cells, which can include, without limitation, T cells, cytotoxic T lymphocytes, T helper cells, natural killer (NK) cells, natural killer T (NKT) cells, anti-tumor macrophages (e.g. M1 macrophages), B cells, dendritic cells, or subsets thereof. In some embodiments, the recognition domains specifically bind to a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) of interest and effectively, directly or indirectly, recruit one of more immune cells. In some embodiments, the target (e.g. antigen, receptor) of interest can be found on one or more tumor cells. In these embodiments, the present chimeric proteins may directly or indirectly recruit an immune cell, e.g., in some embodiments, to a therapeutic site (e.g. a locus with one or more disease cell or cell to be modulated for a therapeutic effect). In some embodiments, the present chimeric proteins may directly or indirectly recruit an immune cell, e.g. an immune cell that can kill and / or suppress a tumor cell, to a site of action (such as, by way of non-limiting example, the tumor microenvironment). In various embodiments, the chimeric proteins have targeting moieties having recognition domains which specifically bind to a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) which is part of a non-cellular structure. In some embodiments, the antigen or receptor is not an integral component of an intact cell or cellular structure. In some embodiments, the antigen or receptor is an extracellular antigen or receptor. In some embodiments, the target is a non-proteinaceous, non-cellular marker, including, without limitation, nucleic acids, inclusive of DNA or RNA, such as, for example, DNA released from necrotic tumor cells or extracellular deposits such as cholesterol. In some embodiments, the target (e.g. antigen, receptor) of interest is part of the non-cellular component of the stroma or the extracellular matrix (ECM) or the markers associated therewith. As used herein, stroma refers to the connective and supportive framework of a tissue or organ. Stroma may include a compilation of cells such as fibroblasts / myofibroblasts, glial, epithelia, fat, immune, vascular, smooth muscle, and immune cells along with the extracellular matrix (ECM) and extracellular molecules. In various embodiments, the target (e.g. antigen, receptor) of interest is part of the non-cellular component of the stroma such as the extracellular matrix and extracellular molecules. As used herein, the ECM refers to the non-cellular components present within all tissues and organs. The ECM is composed of a large collection of biochemically distinct components including, without limitation, proteins, glycoproteins, proteoglycans, and polysaccharides. These components of the ECM are usually produced by adjacent cells and secreted into the ECM via exocytosis. Once secreted, the ECM components often aggregate to form a complex network of macromolecules. In various embodiments, the chimeric protein of the invention comprises a targeting moiety that recognizes a target (e.g., an antigen or receptor or non-proteinaceous molecule) located on any component of the ECM. Illustrative components of the ECM include, without limitation, the proteoglycans, the non-proteoglycan polysaccharides, fibers, and other ECM proteins or ECM non-proteins, e.g. polysaccharides and / or lipids, or ECM associated molecules (e.g. proteins or non-proteins, e.g. polysaccharides, nucleic acids and / or lipids). In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) on ECM proteoglycans. Proteoglycans are glycosylated proteins. The basic proteoglycan unit includes a core protein with one or more covalently attached glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains. Proteoglycans have a net negative charge that attracts positively charged sodium ions (Na+), which attracts water molecules via osmosis, keeping the ECM and resident cells hydrated. Proteoglycans may also help to trap and store growth factors within the ECM. Illustrative proteoglycans that may be targeted by the chimeric proteins of the invention include, but are not limited to, heparan sulfate, chondroitin sulfate, and keratan sulfate. In an embodiment, the targeting moiety recognizes a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) on non-proteoglycan polysaccharides such as hyaluronic acid. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) on ECM fibers. ECM fibers include collagen fibers and elastin fibers. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes one or more epitopes on collagens or collagen fibers. Collagens are the most abundant proteins in the ECM. Collagens are present in the ECM as fibrillar proteins and provide structural support to resident cells. In one or more embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes and binds to various types of collagens present within the ECM including, without limitation, fibrillar collagens (types I, II, III, V, XI), facit collagens (types IX, XII, XIV), short chain collagens (types VIII, X), basement membrane collagens (type IV), and / or collagen types VI, VII, or XIII. Elastin fibers provide elasticity to tissues, allowing them to stretch when needed and then return to their original state. In some embodiments, the target moiety recognizes one or more epitopes on elastins or elastin fibers. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes one or more ECM proteins including, but not limited to, a tenascin, a fibronectin, a fibrin, a laminin, or a nidogen / entactin. In an embodiment, the targeting moiety recognizes and binds to tenascin. The tenascin (TN) family of glycoproteins includes at least four members, tenascin-C, tenascin-R, tenascin-X, and tenascin W. The primary structures of tenascin proteins include several common motifs ordered in the same consecutive sequence: amino-terminal heptad repeats, epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like repeats, fibronectin type III domain repeats, and a carboxyl-terminal fibrinogen-like globular domain. Each protein member is associated with typical variations in the number and nature of EGF-like and fibronectin type III repeats. Isoform variants also exist particularly with respect to tenascin-C. Over 27 splice variants and / or isoforms of tenascin-C are known. In a particular embodiment, the targeting moiety recognizes and binds to tenascin-CA1. Similarly, tenascin-R also has various splice variants and isoforms. Tenascin-R usually exists as dimers or trimers. Tenascin-X is the largest member of the tenascin family and is known to exist as trimers. Tenascin-W exists as trimers. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes one or more epitopes on a tenascin protein. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes the monomeric and / or the dimeric and / or the trimeric and / or the hexameric forms of a tenascin protein. In an embodiment, the targeting moieties recognize and bind to fibronectin. Fibronectins are glycoproteins that connect cells with collagen fibers in the ECM, allowing cells to move through the ECM. Upon binding to integrins, fibronectins unfolds to form functional dimers. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes the monomeric and / or the dimeric forms of fibronectin. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes one or more epitopes on fibronectin. In illustrative embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes fibronectin extracellular domain A (EDA) or fibronectin extracellular domain B (EDB). Elevated levels of EDA are associated with various diseases and disorders including psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, and cancer. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes fibronectin that contains the EDA isoform and may be utilized to target the chimeric protein to diseased cells including cancer cells. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes fibronectin that contains the EDB isoform. In various embodiments, such targeting moieties may be utilized to target the chimeric protein to tumor cells including the tumor neovasculature. In an embodiment, the targeting moiety recognizes and binds to fibrin. Fibrin is another protein substance often found in the matrix network of the ECM. Fibrin is formed by the action of the protease thrombin on fibrinogen which causes the fibrin to polymerize. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes one or more epitopes on fibrin. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes the monomeric as well as the polymerized forms of fibrin. In an embodiment, the targeting moiety recognizes and binds to laminin. Laminin is a major component of the basal lamina, which is a protein network foundation for cells and organs. Laminins are heterotrimeric proteins that contain an <com:Math><semantics>α<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\alpha< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math>-chain, a <com:Math><semantics>β<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\beta< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math>-chain, and a <com:Math><semantics>γ<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\gamma< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math>-chain. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes one or more epitopes on laminin. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes the monomeric, the dimeric as well as the trimeric forms of laminin. In an embodiment, the targeting moiety recognizes and binds to a nidogen or entactin. Nidogens / entactins are a family of highly conserved, sulfated glycoproteins. They make up the major structural component of the basement membranes and function to link laminin and collagen IV networks in basement membranes. Members of this family include nidogen-1 and nidogen-2. In various embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes an epitope on nidogen-1 and / or nidogen-2. In various embodiments, the targeting moiety comprises an antigen recognition domain that recognizes an epitope present on any of the targets (e.g., ECM proteins) described herein. In an embodiment, the antigen- recognition domain recognizes one or more linear epitopes present on the protein. As used herein, a linear epitope refers to any continuous sequence of amino acids present on the protein. In another embodiment, the antigen-recognition domain recognizes one or more conformational epitopes present on the protein. As used herein, a conformation epitope refers to one or more sections of amino acids (which may be discontinuous) which form a three-dimensional surface with features and / or shapes and / or tertiary structures capable of being recognized by an antigen recognition domain. In various embodiments, the targeting moiety may bind to the full-length and / or mature forms and / or isoforms and / or splice variants and / or fragments and / or any other naturally occurring or synthetic analogs, variants, or mutants of any of the targets (e.g., ECM proteins) described herein. In various embodiments, the targeting moiety may bind to any forms of the proteins described herein, including monomeric, dimeric, trimeric, tetrameric, heterodimeric, multimeric and associated forms. In various embodiments, the targeting moiety may bind to any post-translationally modified forms of the proteins described herein, such as glycosylated and / or phosphorylated forms. In various embodiments, the targeting moiety comprises an antigen recognition domain that recognizes extracellular molecules such as DNA. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety comprises an antigen recognition domain that recognizes DNA. In an embodiment, the DNA is shed into the extracellular space from necrotic or apoptotic tumor cells or other diseased cells. In various embodiments, the targeting moiety comprises an antigen recognition domain that recognizes one or more non-cellular structures associated with atherosclerotic plaques. Two types of atherosclerotic plaques are known. The fibro-lipid (fibro-fatty) plaque is characterized by an accumulation of lipid-laden cells underneath the intima of the arteries. Beneath the endothelium there is a fibrous cap covering the atheromatous core of the plaque. The core includes lipid-laden cells (macrophages and smooth muscle cells) with elevated tissue cholesterol and cholesterol ester content, fibrin, proteoglycans, collagen, elastin, and cellular debris. In advanced plaques, the central core of the plaque usually contains extracellular cholesterol deposits (released from dead cells), which form areas of cholesterol crystals with empty, needle-like clefts. At the periphery of the plaque are younger foamy cells and capillaries. A fibrous plaque is also localized under the intima, within the wall of the artery resulting in thickening and expansion of the wall and, sometimes, spotty localized narrowing of the lumen with some atrophy of the muscular layer. The fibrous plaque contains collagen fibers (eosinophilic), precipitates of calcium (hematoxylinophilic) and lipid-laden cells. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes and binds to one or more of the non-cellular components of these plaques such as the fibrin, proteoglycans, collagen, elastin, cellular debris, and calcium or other mineral deposits or precipitates. In some embodiments, the cellular debris is a nucleic acid, e.g. DNA or RNA, released from dead cells. In various embodiments, the targeting moiety comprises an antigen recognition domain that recognizes one or more non-cellular structures found in the brain plaques associated with neurodegenerative diseases. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes and binds to one or more non-cellular structures located in the amyloid plaques found in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease. For example, the targeting moiety may recognize and bind to the peptide amyloid beta, which is a major component of the amyloid plaques. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes and binds to one or more non-cellular structures located in the brains plaques found in patients with Huntington's disease. In various embodiments, the targeting moiety recognizes and binds to one or more non-cellular structures found in plaques associated with other neurodegenerative or musculoskeletal diseases such as Lewy body dementia and inclusion body myositis. In some embodiments, the chimeric proteins of the invention may have two or more targeting moieties that bind to non-cellular structures. In some embodiments, there are two targeting moieties and one targets a cell while the other targets a non-cellular structure. In various embodiments, the targeting moieties can directly or indirectly recruit cells, such as disease cells and / or effector cells. In various embodiments, the signaling agent can modulate one or more cells that are targeted by the targeting moieties (e.g. recruited cells, such as disease cells and / or effector cells). For instance, the signaling agent can modulate one or both of the targeted cells (and the targeted cells can be effector and / or disease cells), depending on whether the targeted cells express a receptor for the signaling agent. In some embodiments, the present chimeric proteins are capable of, or find use in methods involving, shifting the balance of immune cells in favor of immune attack of a tumor. For instance, the present chimeric proteins can shift the ratio of immune cells at a site of clinical importance in favor of cells that can kill and / or suppress a tumor (e.g. T cells, cytotoxic T lymphocytes, T helper cells, natural killer (NK) cells, natural killer T (NKT) cells, anti- tumor macrophages (e.g. M1 macrophages), B cells, dendritic cells, or subsets thereof) and in opposition to cells that protect tumors (e.g. myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), regulatory T cells (Tregs); tumor associated neutrophils (TANs), M2 macrophages, tumor associated macrophages (TAMs), or subsets thereof). In some embodiments, the present chimeric protein is capable of increasing a ratio of effector T cells to regulatory T cells. For example, in some embodiments, the targeting moiety comprises an antigen recognition domain that specifically binds to a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) associated with T cells. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety comprises an antigen recognition domain that directly or indirectly recruits T cells. In an embodiment, the targeting moiety comprises an antigen recognition domain that specifically binds to effector T cells. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety comprises an antigen recognition domain that directly or indirectly recruits effector T cells, e.g., in some embodiments, to a therapeutic site (e.g. a locus with one or more disease cell or cell to be modulated for a therapeutic effect). Illustrative effector T cells include cytotoxic T cells (e.g. αβ TCR, CD3+, CD8+, CD45RO+); CD4+ effector T cells (e.g. αβ TCR, CD3+, CD4+, CCR7+, CD62Lhi, IL-7R / CD127+); CD8+ effector T cells (e.g. αβ TCR, CD3+, CD8+, CCR7+, CD62Lhi, IL-7R / CD127+); effector memory T cells (e.g. CD62Llow, CD44<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, TCR, CD3<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, IL<com:Sup>-< / com:Sup>7R / CD127<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, IL-15R<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, CCR7low); central memory T cells (e.g. CCR7<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, CD62L<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, CD27+; or CCR7hi, CD44+, CD62Lhi, TCR, CD3+, IL-7R / CD127+, IL-15R+); CD62L+ effector T cells; CD8+ effector memory T cells (TEM) including early effector memory T cells (CD27* CD62L-) and late effector memory T cells (CD27<com:Sup>-< / com:Sup> CD62L<com:Sup>-< / com:Sup>) (TemE and TemL, respectively); CD127(*)CD25(low / -) effector T cells; CD127(-)CD25(-) effector T cells; CD8<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup> stem cell memory effector cells (TSCM) (e.g. CD44(low)CD62L(high)CD122(high)sca(<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>)); TH1 effector T-cells (e.g. CXCR3+, CXCR6+ and CCR5+; or αβ TCR, CD3+, CD4+, IL-12R+, IFNγR+, CXCR3+), TH2 effector T cells (e.g. CCR3<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, CCR4<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup> and CCR8<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>; or αβ TCR, CD3<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, CD4<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, IL-4R<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, IL-33R<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, CCR4<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, IL-17RB<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, CRTH2+); TH9 effector T cells (e.g. αβ TCR, CD3+, CD4+); TH17 effector T cells (e.g. αβ TCR, CD3+, CD4+, IL- 23R<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, CCR6<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>, IL-1R<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>); CD4<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>CD45RO<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>CCR7<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup> effector T cells, ICOS<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup> effector T cells; CD4<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>CD45RO<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup>CCR7(<com:Sup>-< / com:Sup>) effector T cells; and effector T cells secreting IL-2, IL-4 and / or IFN-γ.

In various embodiments, a targeting moiety of the chimeric protein binds one or more of these illustrative T cell antigens. In an exemplary embodiment, the present chimeric protein comprises a targeting moiety directed against CD8. In various embodiments, the targeting moiety directed against CD8 is a protein-based agent capable of specific binding to CD8 without functional modulation (e.g. partial or complete neutralization) of CD8. CD8 is a heterodimeric type I transmembrane glycoprotein, whose <com:Math><semantics>α<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\alpha< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math> and <com:Math><semantics>β<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\beta< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math> chains are both composed of an immunoglobulin (lg)-like extracellular domain connected by an extended O-glycosylated stalk to a single-pass transmembrane domain and a short cytoplasmic tail (Li et al., 2013). The cytoplasmic region of the α-chain contains two cysteine motifs that serve as a docking site for src tyrosine kinase p56lck (Lck). In contrast, this Lck binding domain appears to be absent from the <com:Math><semantics>β<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\beta< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math> chain, suggesting that the CD8 <com:Math><semantics>β<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\beta< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math> chain is not involved in downstream signaling (Artyomov et al., 2010). CD8 functions as a co-receptor for the T-cell receptor with its principle role being the recruitment of Lck to the TCR-pMHC complex following co-receptor binding to MHC (Turner et al., 1990, Veillette et al., 1988). The increase in the local concentration of this kinase activates a signaling cascade that recruits and activates ζ-chain-associated protein kinase 70 (ZAP-70), subsequently leading to the amplification or enhancement of T-cell activation signals (Purbhoo et al., 2001, Laugel et al., 2007a). In various embodiments, the chimeric protein of the invention comprises a targeting moiety having an antigen recognition domain that recognizes an epitope present on the CD8 α and / or β chains. In an embodiment, the antigen-recognition domain recognizes one or more linear epitopes on the CD8 <com:Math><semantics>α<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\alpha< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math> and / or <com:Math><semantics>β<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\beta< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math> chains. As used herein, a linear epitope refers to any continuous sequence of amino acids present on the CD8 α and / or β chains. In another embodiment, the antigen-recognition domain recognizes one or more conformational epitopes present on the CD8 <com:Math><semantics>α<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\alpha< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math> and / or <com:Math><semantics>β<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\beta< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math> chains. As used herein, a conformation epitope refers to one or more sections of amino acids (which may be discontinuous) which form a three-dimensional surface with features and / or shapes and / or tertiary structures capable of being recognized by an antigen recognition domain. In various embodiments, the present chimeric protein may comprise a targeting moiety that may bind to the full- length and / or mature forms and / or isoforms and / or splice variants and / or fragments and / or any other naturally occurring or synthetic analogs, variants, or mutants of human CD8 α and / or β chains. In various embodiments, the targeting moiety directed against CD8 may bind to any forms of the human CD8 α and / or β chains, including monomeric, dimeric, heterodimeric, multimeric and associated forms. In an embodiment, the targeting moiety directed against CD8 may bind to the monomeric form of CD8 α chain or CD8 β chain. In another embodiment, the targeting moiety directed against CD8 may bind to a homodimeric form comprised of two CD8 a chains or two CD8 β chains. In a further embodiment, the targeting moiety directed against CD8 may bind to a heterodimeric form comprised of one CD8 α chain and one CD8 β chain. In an embodiment, the present chimeric protein comprises a targeting moiety with an antigen recognition domain that recognizes one or more epitopes present on the human CD8 α chain.

In various embodiments, the targeting moiety of the invention comprises one or more mutations that do not substantially reduce the present CD8 targeting moiety's capability to specifically bind to CD8. In various embodiments, the mutations do not substantially reduce the targeting moiety's capability to specifically bind to CD8 without functionally modulating CD8. In various embodiments, the binding affinity of the CD8 targeting moiety for the full-length and / or mature forms and / or isoforms and / or splice variants and / or fragments and / or any other naturally occurring or synthetic analogs, variants, or mutants (including monomeric, dimeric, heterodimeric, multimeric and / or associated forms) of human CD8 α and / or β chains may be described by the equilibrium dissociation constant (K<com:Sub>D< / com:Sub>). In various embodiments, the present chimeric protein comprises a targeting moiety that binds to the full-length and / or mature forms and / or isoforms and / or splice variants and / or fragments and / or any other naturally occurring or synthetic analogs, variants, or mutants (including monomeric, dimeric, heterodimeric, multimeric and / or associated forms) of human CD8 α and / or β chains with a K<com:Sub>D< / com:Sub> of less than about 1 uM, about 900 nM, about 800 nM, about 700 nM, about 600 nM, about 500 nM, about 400 nM, about 300 nM, about 200 nM, about 100 nM, about 90 nM, about 80 nM, about 70 nM, about 60 nM, about 50 nM, about 40 nM, about 30 nM, about 20 nM, about 10 nM, or about 5 nM, or about 1 nM. In various embodiments, the present chimeric protein comprises a targeting moiety that binds but does not functionally modulate the antigen of interest, i.e., CD8. For instance, in various embodiments, the targeting moiety simply targets the antigen but does not substantially functionally modulate the antigen, e.g.it does not substantially inhibit, reduce or neutralize a biological effect that the antigen has. In various embodiments, the targeting moiety agent binds an epitope that is physically separate from an antigen site that is important for its biological activity (e.g. an antigen's active site). Such non-functionally modulating (e.g. non-neutralizing) binding finds use in various embodiments of the present invention, including methods in which the present chimeric protein is used to directly or indirectly recruit active immune cells to a site of need via an effector antigen. For example, in various embodiments, the present chimeric protein may be used to directly or indirectly recruit cytotoxic T cells via CD8 to a tumor cell in a method of reducing or eliminating a tumor (e.g. the chimeric protein may comprise a targeting moiety having an anti-CD8 antigen recognition domain and a targeting moiety having a recognition domain (e.g. an antigen recognition domain) directed against a tumor antigen or receptor). In such embodiments, it is desirable to directly or indirectly recruit CD8-expressing cytotoxic T cells but not to neutralize the CD8 activity. In these embodiments, CD8 signaling is an important piece of the tumor reducing or eliminating effect. By way of non-limiting example, in various embodiments, the present chimeric protein has a targeting moiety directed against a checkpoint marker expressed on a T cell, e.g. one or more of PD-1, CD28, CTLA4, ICOS, BTLA, KIR, LAG3, CD137, OX40, CD27, CD40L, TIM3, and A2aR. For example, in some embodiments, the targeting moiety comprises an antigen recognition domain that specifically binds to a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) associated with B cells. In some embodiments, the recognition domains directly or indirectly recruit B cells, e.g., in some embodiments, to a therapeutic site (e.g. a locus with one or more disease cell or cell to be modulated for a therapeutic effect). Illustrative B cell antigens of interest include, for example, CD10, CD19, CD20, CD21, CD22, CD23, CD24, CD37, CD38, CD39, CD40, CD70, CD72, CD73, CD74, CDw75, CDw76, CD77, CD78, CD79a / b, CD80, CD81, CD82, CD83, CD84, CD85, CD86, CD89, CD98, CD126, CD127, CDw130, CD138, CDw150, and B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA). In various embodiments, a targeting moiety of the chimeric protein binds one or more of these illustrative B cell antigens. By way of further example, in some embodiments, the targeting moiety comprises an antigen recognition domain that specifically binds to a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) associated with Natural Killer cells. In some embodiments, the recognition domains directly or indirectly recruit Natural Killer cells, e.g., in some embodiments, to a therapeutic site (e.g. a locus with one or more disease cell or cell to be modulated for a therapeutic effect).

In various embodiments, the present chimeric protein comprises a targeting moiety comprising an amino acid sequence that is at least 60% identical to any one of the sequences disclosed herein. For example, the chimeric protein may comprise a targeting moiety comprising an amino acid sequence that is at least about 60%, at least about 61%, at least about 62%, at least about 63%, at least about 64%, at least about 65%, at least about 66%, at least about 67%, at least about 68%, at least about 69%, at least about 70%, at least about 71%, at least about 72%, at least about 73%, at least about 74%, at least about 75%, at least about 76%, at least about 77%, at least about 78%, at least about 79%, at least about 80%, at least about 81%, at least about 82%, at least about 83%, at least about 84%, at least about 85%, at least about 86%, at least about 87%, at least about 88%, at least about 89%, at least about 90%, at least about 91%, at least about 92%, at least about 93%, at least about 94%, at least about 95%, at least about 96%, at least about 97%, at least about 98%, at least about 99%, or 100% identical to any one of the sequences discloses herein (e.g. about 60%, or about 61%, or about 62%, or about 63%, or about 64%, or about 65%, or about 66%, or about 67%, or about 68%, or about 69%, or about 70%, or about 71%, or about 72%, or about 73%, or about 74%, or about 75%, or about 76%, or about 77%, or about 78%, or about 79%, or about 80%, or about 81%, or about 82%, or about 83%, or about 84%, or about 85%, or about 86%, or about 87%, or about 88%, or about 89%, or about 90%, or about 91%, or about 92%, or about 93%, or about 94%, or about 95%, or about 96%, or about 97%, or about 98%, about 99% or about 100% sequence identity to any one of the sequences disclosed herein). In various embodiments, the targeting moiety of the invention comprises one or more mutations that do not substantially reduce the Clec9A targeting moiety's capability to specifically bind to Clec9A. In various embodiments, the mutations do not substantially reduce the targeting moiety's capability to specifically bind to Clec9A without neutralizing Clec9A. In various embodiments, the binding affinity of the Clec9A targeting moiety for the full-length and / or mature forms and / or isoforms and / or splice variants and / or fragments and / or monomeric and / or dimeric forms and / or any other naturally occurring or synthetic analogs, variants, or mutants (including monomeric and / or dimeric forms) of human Clec9A may be described by the equilibrium dissociation constant (KD). In various embodiments, the present chimeric protein comprises a targeting moiety that binds to the full-length and / or mature forms and / or isoforms and / or splice variants and / or fragments and / or any other naturally occurring or synthetic analogs, variants, or mutants (including monomeric and / or dimeric forms) of human Clec9A with a K<com:Sub>D< / com:Sub> of less than about 1 uM, about 900 nM, about 800 nM, about 700 nM, about 600 nM, about 500 nM, about 400 nM, about 300 nM, about 200 nM, about 100 nM, about 90 nM, about 80 nM, about 70 nM, about 60 nM, about 50 nM, about 40 nM, about 30 nM, about 20 nM, about 10 nM, or about 5 nM, or about 1 nM. In various embodiments, the present chimeric protein comprises a targeting moiety that binds but does not functionally modulate the antigen of interest, e.g., Clec9A. For instance, in various embodiments, the Clec9A targeting moiety simply targets the antigen but does not substantially functionally modulate (e.g. substantially inhibit, reduce or neutralize) a biological effect that the antigen has. In various embodiments, the Clec9A targeting moiety binds an epitope that is physically separate from an antigen site that is important for its biological activity (e.g. an antigen's active site). Such binding without significant function modulation finds use in various embodiments of the present invention, including methods in which the present chimeric protein is used to directly or indirectly recruit active immune cells to a site of need via an effector antigen. For example, in various embodiments, the present chimeric protein may be used to directly or indirectly recruit dendritic cells via Clec9A to a tumor cell in a method of reducing or eliminating a tumor (e.g. the chimeric protein may comprise a targeting moiety having an anti-Clec9A antigen recognition domain and a targeting moiety having a recognition domain (e.g. antigen recognition domain) directed against a tumor antigen or receptor). In such embodiments, it is desirable to directly or indirectly recruit dendritic cells but not to functionally modulate the Clec9A activity. In these embodiments, Clec9A signaling is an important piece of the tumor reducing or eliminating effect. In some embodiments, the present chimeric protein enhances antigen-presentation by dendritic cells. For example, in various embodiments, the present chimeric protein may directly or indirectly recruits dendritic cells via Clec9A to a tumor cell, where tumor antigens are subsequently endocytosed and presented on the dendritic cell for induction of potent humoral and cytotoxic T cell responses. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety comprises an antigen recognition domain that specifically binds to a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) on immune cells selected from, but not limited to, megakaryocytes, thrombocytes, erythrocytes, mast cells, basophils, neutrophils, eosinophils, or subsets thereof. In some embodiments, the recognition domains directly or indirectly recruit megakaryocytes, thrombocytes, erythrocytes, mast cells, basophils, neutrophils, eosinophils, or subsets thereof, e.g., in some embodiments, to a therapeutic site (e.g. a locus with one or more disease cell or cell to be modulated for a therapeutic effect). In some embodiments, the targeting moiety comprises an antigen recognition domain that specifically binds to a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) associated with megakaryocytes and / or thrombocytes. Illustrative megakaryocyte and / or thrombocyte antigens of interest include, for example, GP IIb / IIIa, GPIb, vWF, PF4, and TSP.

In various embodiments, a targeting moiety of the chimeric protein binds one or more of these basophil antigens. In some embodiments, the targeting moiety comprises an antigen recognition domain that specifically binds to a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) associated with neutrophils. Illustrative neutrophils antigens of interest include, for example, 7D5, CD10 / CALLA, CD13, CD16 (FcRIII), CD18 proteins (LFA-1, CR3, and p150, 95), CD45, CD67, and CD177.

In various embodiments, a targeting moiety of the chimeric protein binds one or more of these eosinophil antigens. In various embodiments, the targeting moiety may comprise an antigen recognition domain may bind to any appropriate target, antigen, receptor, or cell surface markers known by the skilled artisan. In some embodiments, the antigen or cell surface marker is a tissue-specific marker. Illustrative tissue-specific markers include, but are not limited to, endothelial cell surface markers such as ACE, CD14, CD34, CDH5, ENG, ICAM2, MCAM, NOS3, PECAMI, PROCR, SELE, SELP, TEK, THBD, VCAMI, VWF; smooth muscle cell surface markers such as ACTA2, MYHIO, MYHI 1, MYH9, MYOCD; fibroblast (stromal) cell surface markers such as ALCAM, CD34, COLIAI, COL1A2, COL3A1, FAP, PH-4; epithelial cell surface markers such as CDID, K6IRS2, KRTIO, KRT13, KRT17, KRT18, KRT19, KRT4, KRT5, KRT8, MUCI, TACSTDI; neovasculature markers such as CD13, TFNA, Alpha-v beta-3 (<com:Math><semantics>αVβ3<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\alpha_{V}\beta_{3}< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math>), E-selectin; and adipocyte surface markers such as ADIPOQ, FABP4, and RETN. In various embodiments, a targeting moiety of the chimeric protein binds one or more of these antigens. In various embodiments, a targeting moiety of the chimeric protein binds one or more of cells having these antigens. In some embodiments, the recognition domains specifically bind to a target (e.g. antigen, receptor) associated with tumor cells. In some embodiments, the recognition domains directly or indirectly recruit tumor cells. For instance, in some embodiments, the direct or indirect recruitment of the tumor cell is to one or more effector cell (e.g. an immune cell as described herein) that can kill and / or suppress the tumor cell. Tumor cells, or cancer cells refer to an uncontrolled growth of cells or tissues and / or an abnormal increased in cell survival and / or inhibition of apoptosis which interferes with the normal functioning of bodily organs and systems.

In various embodiments, the targeting moiety of the invention may comprise a sequence which has one or more amino acid mutations with respect to any one of the sequences disclosed herein. In various embodiments, the targeting moiety comprises a sequence that has about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, or 100 or more amino acid mutations with respect to any one of the amino acid sequences of targeting moieties disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the one or more amino acid mutations may be independently selected from substitutions, insertions, deletions, and truncations. In some embodiments, the amino acid mutations are amino acid substitutions, and may include conservative and / or non-conservative substitutions. "Conservative substitutions" may be made, for instance, on the basis of similarity in polarity, charge, size, solubility, hydrophobicity, hydrophilicity, and / or the amphipathic nature of the amino acid residues involved. The 20 naturally occurring amino acids can be grouped into the following six standard amino acid groups: (1) hydrophobic: Met, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile; (2) neutral hydrophilic: Cys, Ser, Thr; Asn, Gln; (3) acidic: Asp, Glu; (4) basic: His, Lys, Arg; (5) residues that influence chain orientation: Gly, Pro; and (6) aromatic: Trp, Tyr, Phe. As used herein, "conservative substitutions" are defined as exchanges of an amino acid by another amino acid listed within the same group of the six standard amino acid groups shown above. For example, the exchange of Asp by Glu retains one negative charge in the so modified polypeptide. In addition, glycine and proline may be substituted for one another based on their ability to disrupt α-helices. As used herein, "non-conservative substitutions" are defined as exchanges of an amino acid by another amino acid listed in a different group of the six standard amino acid groups (1) to (6) shown above. In various embodiments, the substitutions may also include non-classical amino acids (e.g. selenocysteine, pyrrolysine, N-formylmethionine <com:Math><semantics>β<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\beta< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math>-alanine, GABA and <com:Math><semantics>δ<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\delta< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math>-Aminolevulinic acid, 4-aminobenzoic acid (PABA), D- isomers of the common amino acids, 2,4-diaminobutyric acid, α-amino isobutyric acid, 4-aminobutyric acid, Abu, 2-amino butyric acid, γ-Abu, ε-Ahx, 6-amino hexanoic acid, Aib, 2-amino isobutyric acid, 3-amino propionic acid, ornithine, norleucine, norvaline, hydroxyproline, sarcosme, citrulline, homocitrulline, cysteic acid, t-butylglycine, t- butylalanine, phenylglycine, cyclohexylalanine, β-alanine, fluoro-amino acids, designer amino acids such as β methyl amino acids, C <com:Math><semantics>α<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\alpha< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math>-methyl amino acids, N <com:Math><semantics>α<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\alpha< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math>-methyl amino acids, and amino acid analogs in general). In various embodiments, the amino acid mutation may be in the CDRs of the targeting moiety (e.g., the CDR1, CDR2 or CDR3 regions). In another embodiment, amino acid alteration may be in the framework regions (FRs) of the targeting moiety (e.g., the FR1, FR2, FR3, or FR4 regions). Modification of the amino acid sequences may be achieved using any known technique in the art e.g., site- directed mutagenesis or PCR based mutagenesis. Such techniques are described, for example, in Sambrook et al., Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Press, Plainview, N.Y., 1989 and Ausubel et al., Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, John Wiley & Sons, New York, N.Y., 1989.

In various embodiments, the present chimeric protein comprises targeting moieties in various combinations. In an illustrative embodiment, the present chimeric protein may comprise two targeting moieties, wherein both targeting moieties are antibodies or derivatives thereof. In another illustrative embodiment, the present chimeric protein may comprise two targeting moieties, wherein both targeting moieties are natural ligands for cell receptors. In a further illustrative embodiment, the present chimeric protein may comprise two targeting moieties, wherein one of the targeting moieties is an antibody or derivative thereof, and the other targeting moiety is a natural ligand for a cell receptor. In various embodiments, the recognition domain of the present chimeric protein functionally modulates (by way of non-limitation, partially or completely neutralizes) the target (e.g. antigen, receptor) of interest, e.g. substantially inhibiting, reducing, or neutralizing a biological effect that the antigen has. For example, various recognition domains may be directed against one or more tumor antigens that are actively suppressing, or have the capacity to suppress, the immune system of, for example, a patient bearing a tumor. For example, in some embodiments, the present chimeric protein functionally modulates immune inhibitory signals (e.g. checkpoint inhibitors), for example, one or more of TIM-3, BTLA, PD-1, CTLA-4, B7-H4, GITR, galectin-9, HVEM, PD-L1, PD-L2, B7-H3, CD244, CD160, TIGIT, SIRPα, ICOS, CD172a, and TMIGD2. For example, in some embodiments, the present chimeric protein is engineered to disrupt, block, reduce, and / or inhibit the transmission of an immune inhibitory signal, by way of non-limiting example, the binding of PD-1 with PD-L1 or PD-L2 and / or the binding of CTLA-4 with one or more of AP2M1, CD80, CD86, SHP-2, and PPP2R5A. In various embodiments, the recognition domain of the present chimeric protein binds but does not functionally modulate the target (e.g. antigen, receptor) of interest, e.g. the recognition domain is, or is akin to, a binding antibody. For instance, in various embodiments, the recognition domain simply targets the antigen or receptor but does not substantially inhibit, reduce or functionally modulate a biological effect that the antigen or receptor has. For example, some of the smaller antibody formats described above (e.g. as compared to, for example, full antibodies) have the ability to target hard to access epitopes and provide a larger spectrum of specific binding locales. In various embodiments, the recognition domain binds an epitope that is physically separate from an antigen or receptor site that is important for its biological activity (e.g. the antigen's active site). Such non-neutralizing binding finds use in various embodiments of the present invention, including methods in which the present chimeric protein is used to directly or indirectly recruit active immune cells to a site of need via an effector antigen, such as any of those described herein. For example, in various embodiments, the present chimeric protein may be used to directly or indirectly recruit cytotoxic T cells via CD8 to a tumor cell in a method of reducing or eliminating a tumor (e.g. the chimeric protein may comprise an anti-CD8 recognition domain and a recognition domain directed against a tumor antigen). In such embodiments, it is desirable to directly or indirectly recruit CD8-expressing cytotoxic T cells but not to functionally modulate the CD8 activity. On the contrary, in these embodiments, CD8 signaling is an important piece of the tumor reducing or eliminating effect. By way of further example, in various methods of reducing or eliminating tumors, the present chimeric protein is used to directly or indirectly recruit dendritic cells (DCs) via CLEC9A (e.g. the chimeric protein may comprise an anti- CLEC9A recognition domain and a recognition domain directed against a tumor antigen). In such embodiments, it is desirable to directly or indirectly recruit CLEC9A-expressing DCs but not to functionally modulate the CLEC9A activity. On the contrary, in these embodiments, CLEC9A signaling is an important piece of the tumor reducing or eliminating effect. In various embodiments, the recognition domain of the present chimeric protein binds to XCR1 e.g. on dendritic cells. For instance, the recognition domain, in some embodiments comprises all or part of XCL1 or a non- neutralizing anti-XCR1 agent. In various embodiments, the recognition domain of the present chimeric protein binds to an immune modulatory antigen (e.g. immune stimulatory or immune inhibitory). In various embodiments, the immune modulatory antigen is one or more of 4-1BB, OX-40, HVEM, GITR, CD27, CD28, CD30, CD40, ICOS ligand; OX-40 ligand, LIGHT (CD258), GITR ligand, CD70, B7-1, B7-2, CD30 ligand, CD40 ligand, ICOS, ICOS ligand, CD137 ligand and TL1A. In various embodiments, such immune stimulatory antigens are expressed on a tumor cell. In various embodiments, the recognition domain of the present chimeric protein binds but does not functionally modulate such immune stimulatory antigens and therefore allows recruitment of cells expressing these antigens without the reduction or loss of their potential tumor reducing or eliminating capacity. In various embodiments, the recognition domain of the present chimeric protein may be in the context of chimeric protein that comprises two recognition domains that have neutralizing activity, or comprises two recognition domains that have non-neutralizing (e.g. binding) activity, or comprises one recognition domain that has neutralizing activity and one recognition domain that has non-neutralizing (e.g. binding) activity. Signaling Agents In one aspect, the present invention provides a chimeric protein that includes a signaling agent (for instance, an immune-modulating agent). In various embodiments, the signaling agent is modified to have reduced affinity or activity for one or more of its receptors, which allows for attenuation of activity (inclusive of agonism or antagonism) and / or prevents non-specific signaling or undesirable sequestration of the chimeric protein. In various embodiments, the signaling agent is antagonistic in its wild type form and bears one or more mutations that attenuate its antagonistic activity. In various embodiments, the signaling agent is antagonistic due to one or more mutations, e.g. an agonistic signaling agent is converted to an antagonistic signaling agent and, such a converted signaling agent, optionally, also bears one or more mutations that attenuate its antagonistic activity (e.g. as described in WO 2015 / 007520).

In some embodiments, the signaling agent is a modified version of a hormone selected from, but not limited to, human chorionic gonadotropin, gonadotropin releasing hormone, an androgen, an estrogen, thyroid-stimulating hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, prolactin, growth hormone, adrenocorticotropic hormone, antidiuretic hormone, oxytocin, thyrotropin-releasing hormone, growth hormone releasing hormone, corticotropin-releasing hormone, somatostatin, dopamine, melatonin, thyroxine, calcitonin, parathyroid hormone, glucocorticoids, mineralocorticoids, adrenaline, noradrenaline, progesterone, insulin, glucagon, amylin, calcitriol, calciferol, atrial-natriuretic peptide, gastrin, secretin, cholecystokinin, neuropeptide Y, ghrelin, PYY3-36, insulin- like growth factor (IGF), leptin, thrombopoietin, erythropoietin (EPO), and angiotensinogen. In some embodiments, the signaling agent is EPO. In some embodiments, the signaling agent is an immune-modulating agent, e.g. one or more of an interleukin, interferon, and tumor necrosis factor. In some embodiments, the signaling agent is an interleukin or a modified interleukin, including for example IL-1; IL-2; IL-3; IL-4; IL-5; IL-6; IL-7; IL-8; IL-9; IL-10; IL-11; IL-12; IL-13; IL-14; IL-15; IL-16; IL-17; IL-18; IL-19; IL-20; IL-21; IL-22; IL-23; IL-24; IL-25; IL-26; IL-27; IL-28; IL-29; IL-30; IL-31; IL-32; IL-33; IL-35; IL-36 or a fragment, variant, analogue, or family-member thereof. Interleukins are a group of multi- functional cytokines synthesized by lymphocytes, monocytes, and macrophages. Known functions include stimulating proliferation of immune cells (e.g., T helper cells, B cells, eosinophils, and lymphocytes), chemotaxis of neutrophils and T lymphocytes, and / or inhibition of interferons. Interleukin activity can be determined using assays known in the art: Matthews et al., in Lymphokines and Interferens: A Practical Approach, Clemens et al., eds, IRL Press, Washington, D.C. 1987, pp. 221-225; and Orencole & Dinarello (1989) Cytokine 1, 14-20. In some embodiments, the signaling agent is an interferon or a modified version of an interferon such as interferon types I, II, and III. Illustrative interferons, including for example, interferon-α-1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 13, 14, 16, 17, and 21, interferon-β and interferon-γ, interferon κ, interferon ε, interferon <com:Math><semantics>τ<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\tau< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math>, and interferon <com:Math><semantics>ϖ<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\varpi< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math>. In some embodiments, the signaling agent is a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) or a modified version of a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) or a protein in the TNF family, including but not limited to, TNF-α, TNF-β, LT-β, CD40L, CD27L, CD30L, FASL, 4-1BBL, OX40L, and TRAIL. In various embodiments, the signaling agent is a modified (e.g. mutant) form of the signaling agent having one or more mutations. In various embodiments, the mutations allow for the modified signaling agent to have one or more of attenuated activity such as one or more of reduced binding affinity, reduced endogenous activity, and reduced specific bioactivity relative to unmodified or unmutated, i.e. the wild type form of the signaling agent (e.g. comparing the same signaling agent in a wild type form versus a modified (e.g. mutant) form). In some embodiments, the mutations which attenuate or reduce binding or affinity include those mutations which substantially reduce or ablate binding or activity. In some embodiments, the mutations which attenuate or reduce binding or affinity are different than those mutations which substantially reduce or ablate binding or activity. Consequentially, in various embodiments, the mutations allow for the signaling agent to have improved safety, e.g. have reduced systemic toxicity, reduced side effects, and reduced off-target effects relative to unmutated, i.e. wild type, signaling agent (e.g. comparing the same signaling agent in a wild type form versus a modified (e.g. mutant) form). In various embodiments, the signaling agent is modified to have one or more mutations that reduce its binding affinity or activity for one or more of its receptors. In some embodiments, the signaling agent is modified to have one or more mutations that substantially reduce or ablate binding affinity or activity for the receptors. In some embodiments, the activity provided by the wild type signaling agent is agonism at the receptor (e.g. activation of a cellular effect at a site of therapy). For example, the wild type signaling agent may activate its receptor. In such embodiments, the mutations result in the modified signaling agent to have reduced or ablated activating activity at the receptor. For example, the mutations may result in the modified signaling agent to deliver a reduced activating signal to a target cell or the activating signal could be ablated. In some embodiments, the activity provided by the wild type signaling agent is antagonism at the receptor (e.g. blocking or dampening of a cellular effect at a site of therapy). For example, the wild type signaling agent may antagonize or inhibit the receptor. In these embodiments, the mutations result in the modified signaling agent to have a reduced or ablated antagonizing activity at the receptor. For example, the mutations may result in the modified signaling agent to deliver a reduced inhibitory signal to a target cell or the inhibitory signal could be ablated. In various embodiments, the signaling agent is antagonistic due to one or more mutations, e.g. an agonistic signaling agent is converted to an antagonistic signaling agent (e.g. as described in WO 2015 / 007520) and, such a converted signaling agent, optionally, also bears one or more mutations that reduce its binding affinity or activity for one or more of its receptors or that substantially reduce or ablate binding affinity or activity for one or more of its receptors. In some embodiments, the reduced affinity or activity at the receptor is restorable by attachment with one or more of the targeting moieties. In other embodiments, the reduced affinity or activity at the receptor is not substantially restorable by the activity of one or more of the targeting moieties. In various embodiments, the chimeric proteins of the present invention reduce off-target effects because their signaling agents have mutations that weaken or ablate binding affinity or activity at a receptor. In various embodiments, this reduction in side effects is observed relative with, for example, the wild type signaling agents. In various embodiments, the signaling agent is active on target cells because the targeting moiety(ies) compensates for the missing / insufficient binding (e.g., without limitation and / or avidity) required for substantial activation. In various embodiments, the modified signaling agent is substantially inactive en route to the site of therapeutic activity and has its effect substantially on specifically targeted cell types which greatly reduces undesired side effects. In some embodiments, the signaling agent may include one or more mutations that attenuate or reduce binding or affinity for one receptor (i.e., a therapeutic receptor) and one or more mutations that substantially reduce or ablate binding or activity at a second receptor. In such embodiments, these mutations may be at the same or at different positions (i.e., the same mutation or multiple mutations). In some embodiments, the mutation(s) that reduce binding and / or activity at one receptor is different than the mutation(s) that substantially reduce or ablate at another receptor. In some embodiments, the mutation(s) that reduce binding and / or activity at one receptor is the same as the mutation(s) that substantially reduce or ablate at another receptor. In some embodiments, the present chimeric proteins have a modified signaling agent that has both mutations that attenuate binding and / or activity at a therapeutic receptor and therefore allow for a more controlled, on-target therapeutic effect (e.g. relative wild type signaling agent) and mutations that substantially reduce or ablate binding and / or activity at another receptor and therefore reduce side effects (e.g. relative to wild type signaling agent). In some embodiments, the substantial reduction or ablation of binding or activity is not substantially restorable with a targeting moiety. In some embodiments, the substantial reduction or ablation of binding or activity is restorable with a targeting moiety. In various embodiments, substantially reducing or ablating binding or activity at a second receptor also may prevent deleterious effects that are mediated by the other receptor. Alternatively, or in addition, substantially reducing or ablating binding or activity at the other receptor causes the therapeutic effect to improve as there is a reduced or eliminated sequestration of the therapeutic chimeric proteins away from the site of therapeutic action. For instance, in some embodiments, this obviates the need of high doses of the present chimeric proteins that compensate for loss at the other receptor. Such ability to reduce dose further provides a lower likelihood of side effects. In various embodiments, the modified signaling agent comprises one or more mutations that cause the signaling agent to have reduced, substantially reduced, or ablated affinity, e.g. binding (e.g. K<com:Sub>D< / com:Sub>) and / or activation (for instance, when the modified signaling agent is an agonist of its receptor, measurable as, for example, <com:Math><semantics>KA<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">K_A< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math> and / or EC<com:Sub>50< / com:Sub>) and / or inhibition (for instance, when the modified signaling agent is an antagonist of its receptor, measurable as, for example, K<com:Sub>1< / com:Sub> and / or IC<com:Sub>50< / com:Sub>), for one or more of its receptors. In various embodiments, the reduced affinity at the immumodulating agent's receptor allows for attenuation of activity (inclusive of agonism or antagonism). In such embodiments, the modified signaling agent has about 1%, or about 3%, about 5%, about 10%, about 15%, about 20%, about 25%, about 30%, about 35%, about 40%, about 45%, about 50%, about 60%, about 65%, about 70%, about 75%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95%, or about 10%-20%, about 20%-40%, about 50%, about 40%-60%, about 60%-80%, about 80%-100% of the affinity for the receptor relative to the wild type signaling agent. In some embodiments, the binding affinity is at least about 2-fold lower, about 3-fold lower, about 4-fold lower, about 5-fold lower, about 6-fold lower, about 7-fold lower, about 8-fold lower, about 9-fold lower, at least about 10-fold lower, at least about 15-fold lower, at least about 20-fold lower, at least about 25-fold lower, at least about 30-fold lower, at least about 35-fold lower, at least about 40-fold lower, at least about 45-fold lower, at least about 50-fold lower, at least about 100-fold lower, at least about 150-fold lower, or about 10-50-fold lower, about 50-100-fold lower, about 100-150-fold lower, about 150-200-fold lower, or more than 200-fold lower relative to the wild type signaling agent. In embodiments wherein the chimeric protein has mutations that reduce binding at one receptor and substantially reduce or ablate binding at a second receptor, the attenuation or reduction in binding affinity of a modified signaling agent for one receptor is less than the substantial reduction or ablation in affinity for the other receptor. In some embodiments, the attenuation or reduction in binding affinity of a modified signaling agent for one receptor is less than the substantial reduction or ablation in affinity for the other receptor by about 1%, or about 3%, about 5%, about 10%, about 15%, about 20%, about 25%, about 30%, about 35%, about 40%, about 45%, about 50%, about 60%, about 65%, about 70%, about 75%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, or about 95%. In various embodiments, substantial reduction or ablation refers to a greater reduction in binding affinity and / or activity than attenuation or reduction. In various embodiments, the modified signaling agent comprises one or more mutations that reduce the endogenous activity of the signaling agent to about 75%, or about 70%, or about 60%, or about 50%, or about 40%, or about 30%, or about 25%, or about 20%, or about 10%, or about 5%, or about 3%, or about 1%, e.g., relative to the wild type signaling agent In various embodiments, the modified signaling agent comprises one or more mutations that cause the signaling agent to have reduced affinity and / or activity for a receptor of any one of the cytokines, growth factors, and hormones as described herein. In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent comprises one or more mutations that cause the signaling agent to have reduced affinity for its receptor that is lower than the binding affinity of the targeting moiety(ies) for its(their) receptor(s). In some embodiments, this binding affinity differential is between signaling agent / receptor and targeting moiety / receptor on the same cell. In some embodiments, this binding affinity differential allows for the signaling agent, e.g. mutated signaling agent, to have localized, on-target effects and to minimize off-target effects that underlie side effects that are observed with wild type signaling agent. In some embodiments, this binding affinity is at least about 2-fold, or at least about 5-fold, or at least about 10-fold, or at least about 15-fold lower, or at least about 25-fold, or at least about 50-fold lower, or at least about 100-fold, or at least about 150- fold. Receptor binding activity may be measured using methods known in the art. For example, affinity and / or binding activity may be assessed by Scatchard plot analysis and computer-fitting of binding data (e.g. Scatchard, 1949) or by reflectometric interference spectroscopy under flow through conditions, as described by Brecht et al.

In an embodiment, the modified signaling agent is interferon <com:Math><semantics>β<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\beta< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math>. In such embodiments, the modified interferon <com:Math><semantics>β<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\beta< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math> agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for the IFN-<com:Math><semantics>α / β<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\alpha / \beta< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math> receptor (IFNAR), i.e., IFNAR1 and / or IFNAR2 chains. In some embodiments, the modified interferon β agent has substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for the IFN-α / β receptor (IFNAR), i.e., IFNAR1 and / or IFNAR2 chains. In an embodiment, the modified signaling agent is interferon γ. In such embodiments, the modified interferon γ agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for the interferon-gamma receptor (IFNGR), i.e., IFNGR1 and IFNGR2 chains. In some embodiments, the modified interferon y agent has substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for the interferon-gamma receptor (IFNGR), i.e., IFNGR1 and / or IFNGR2 chains. In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent is vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). VEGF is a potent growth factor that plays major roles in physiological but also pathological angiogenesis, regulates vascular permeability and can act as a growth factor on cells expressing VEGF receptors. Additional functions include, among others, stimulation of cell migration in macrophage lineage and endothelial cells. Several members of the VEGF family of growth factors exist, as well as at least three receptors (VEGFR-1, VEGFR -2, and VEGFR -3). Members of the VEGF family can bind and activate more than one VEGFR type. For example, VEGF-A binds VEGFR-1 and -2, while VEGF-C can bind VEGFR-2 and -3. VEGFR-1 and -2 activation regulates angiogenesis while VEGFR-3 activation is associated with lymphangiogenesis. The major pro-angiogenic signal is generated from activation of VEGFR-2. VEGFR-1 activation has been reported to be possibly associated with negative role in angiogenesis. It has also been reported that VEGFR-1 signaling is important for progression of tumors in vivo via bone marrow-derived VEGFR-1 positive cells (contributing to formation of premetastatic niche in the bone). Several therapies based on VEGF-A directed / neutralizing therapeutic antibodies have been developed, primarily for use in treatment of various human tumors relying on angiogenesis. These are not without side effects though. This may not be surprising considering that these operate as general, non-cell / tissue specific VEGF / VEGFR interaction inhibitors. Hence, it would be desirable to restrict VEGF (e.g. VEGF-A) / VEGFR-2 inhibition to specific target cells (e.g. tumor vasculature endothelial cells). In some embodiments, the VEGF is VEGF-A, VEGF-B, VEFG-C, VEGF-D, or VEGF-E and isoforms thereof including the various isoforms of VEGF-A such as VEGF<com:Sub>121< / com:Sub>, VEGF<com:Sub>121< / com:Sub>b, VEGF<com:Sub>145< / com:Sub>, VEGF<com:Sub>165< / com:Sub>b, VEGF<com:Sub>165< / com:Sub>b, VEGF<com:Sub>189< / com:Sub>, and VEGF<com:Sub>206< / com:Sub>. In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for VEGFR-1 (FIt-1) and / or VEGFR-2 (KDR / FIk-1). In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent has substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for VEGFR-1 (Flt-1) and / or VEGFR-2 (KDR / Flk-1). In an embodiment, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for VEGFR-2 (KDR / Flk-1) and / or substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for VEGFR-1 (Flt-1). Such an embodiment finds use, for example, in wound healing methods or treatment of ischmia-related diseases (without wishing to be bound by theory, mediated by VEGFR-2's effects on endothelial cell function and angiogenesis). In various embodiments, binding to VEGFR-1 (Flt-1), which is linked to cancers and pro-inflammatory activities, is avoided. In various embodiments, VEGFR-1 (Flt-1) acts a decoy receptor and therefore substantially reduces or ablates affinity at this receptor avoids sequestration of the therapeutic agent. In an embodiment, the modified signaling agent has substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for VEGFR-1 (FIt-1) and / or substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for VEGFR-2 (KDR / Flk-1). In some embodiments, the VEGF is VEGF-C or VEGF- D. In such embodiments, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for VEGFR-3. Alternatively, the modified signaling agent has substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for VEGFR- 3. Proangiogenic therapies are also important in various diseases (e.g. ischemic heart disease, bleeding etc.), and include VEGF-based therapeutics. Activation of VEGFR-2 is proangiogenic (acting on endothelial cells). Activation of VEFGR-1 can cause stimulation of migration of inflammatory cells (including, for example, macrophages) and lead to inflammation associated hypervascular permeability. Activation of VEFGR-1 can also promote bone marrow associated tumor niche formation. Thus, VEGF based therapeutic selective for VEGFR-2 activation would be desirable in this case. In addition, cell specific targeting, e.g. to endothelial cells, would be desirable. In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity (e.g. antagonistic) for VEGFR-2 and / or has substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for VEGFR-1. When targeted to tumor vasculature endothelial cells via a targeting moiety that binds to a tumor endothelial cell marker (e.g. PSMA and others), such construct inhibits VEGFR-2 activation specifically on such marker-positive cells, while not activating VEGFR-1 en route and on target cells (if activity ablated), thus eliminating induction of inflammatory responses, for example. This would provide a more selective and safe anti-angiogenic therapy for many tumor types as compared to VEGF-A neutralizing therapies. In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity (e.g. agonistic) for VEGFR-2 and / or has substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for VEGFR-1. Through targeting to vascular endothelial cells, such construct, in some embodiments, promotes angiogenesis without causing VEGFR-1 associated induction of inflammatory responses. Hence, such a construct would have targeted proangiogenic effects with substantially reduced risk of side effects caused by systemic activation of VEGFR-2 as well as VEGR-1. In an illustrative embodiment, the modified signaling agent is VEGF<com:Sub>165< / com:Sub>, which has the amino acid sequence: VEGF 165 (wild type) (SEQ ID NO: 338) [Image disponible dans le document PDF, Image available in the PDF document] [Image disponible dans le document PDF, Image available in the PDF document] CECRPKKDRARQENPCGPCSERRKHLFVQDPQTCKCSCKNTDSRCKAR QLELNERTCRCDKPRR In another illustrative embodiment, the modified signaling agent is VEGF<com:Sub>165b< / com:Sub>, which has the amino acid sequence: VEGF 165b (wild type) (SEQ ID NO: 339) APMAEGGGQNHHEVVKFMDVYQRSYCHPIETLVDIFQEYPDEIEYIFKPSC VPLMRCGGCCNDEGLECVPTEESNITMQIMRIKPHQGQHIGEMSFLQHNK CECRPKKDRARQENPCGPCSERRKHLFVQDPQTCKCSCKNTDSRCKAR QLELNERTCRSLTRKD In these embodiments, the modified signaling agent has a mutation at amino acid 183 (e.g., a substitution mutation at I83, e.g., I83K, I83R, or I83H). Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that such mutations may result in reduced receptor binding affinity. See, for example, U.S. Patent No. 9,078,860. In an embodiment, the modified signaling agent is TNF-α. TNF is a pleiotropic cytokine with many diverse functions, including regulation of cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis, tumorigenesis, viral replication, autoimmunity, immune cell functions and trafficking, inflammation, and septic shock. It binds to two distinct membrane receptors on target cells: TNFR1 (p55) and TNFR2 (p75). TNFR1 exhibits a very broad expression pattern whereas TNFR2 is expressed preferentially on certain populations of lymphocytes, Tregs, endothelial cells, certain neurons, microglia, cardiac myocytes and mesenchymal stem cells. Very distinct biological pathways are activated in response to receptor activation, although there is also some overlap. As a general rule, without wishing to be bound by theory, TNFR1 signaling is associated with induction of apoptosis (cell death) and TNFR2 signaling is associated with activation of cell survival signals (e.g. activation of NFkB pathway). Administration of TNF is systemically toxic, and this is largely due to TNFR1 engagement. However, it should be noted that activation of TNFR2 is also associated with a broad range of activities and, as with TNFR1, in the context of developing TNF based therapeutics, control over TNF targeting and activity is important. In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for TNFR1 and / or TNFR2. In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent has substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for TNFR1 and / or TNFR2. TNFR1 is expressed in most tissues, and is involved in cell death signaling while, by contrast, TNFR2 is involved in cell survival signaling. Accordingly, in embodiments directed to methods of treating cancer, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for TNFR1 and / or substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for TNFR2. In these embodiments, the chimeric proteins may be targeted to a cell for which apoptosis is desired, e.g. a tumor cell or a tumor vasculature endothelial cell. In embodiments directed to methods of promoting cell survival, for example, in neurogenesis for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for TNFR2 and / or substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for TNFR1. Stated another way, the present chimeric proteins, in some embodiments, comprise modified TNF-a agent that allows of favoring either death or survival signals. In some embodiments, the chimeric protein has a modified TNF having reduced affinity and / or activity for TNFR1 and / or substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for TNFR2. Such a chimera, in some embodiments, is a more potent inducer of apoptosis as compared to a wild type TNF and / or a chimera bearing only mutation(s) causing reduced affinity and / or activity for TNFR1. Such a chimera, in some embodiments, finds use in inducing tumor cell death or a tumor vasculature endothelial cell death (e.g. in the treatment of cancers). Also, in some embodiments, these chimeras avoid or reduce activation of T<com:Sub>reg< / com:Sub> cells via TNFR2, for example, thus further supporting TNFR1-mediated antitumor activity in vivo. In some embodiments, the chimeric protein has a modified TNF having reduced affinity and / or activity for TNFR2 and / or substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for TNFR1. Such a chimera, in some embodiments, is a more potent activator of cell survival in some cell types, which may be a specific therapeutic objective in various disease settings, including without limitation, stimulation of neurogenesis. In addition, such a TNFR2- favoring chimeras also are useful in the treatment of autoimmune diseases (e.g. Crohn's, diabetes, MS, colitis etc. and many others described herein). In some embodiments, the chimera is targeted to auto-reactive T cells. In some embodiments, the chimera promotes T<com:Sub>reg< / com:Sub> cell activation and indirect suppression of cytotoxic T cells. In some embodiments, the chimera causes the death of auto-reactive T cells, e.g. by activation of TNFR2 and / or avoidance of TNFR1 (e.g. a modified TNF having reduced affinity and / or activity for TNFR2 and / or substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for TNFR1). Without wishing to be bound by theory these auto-reactive T cells, have their apoptosis / survival signals altered e.g. by NFkB pathway activity / signaling alterations. In some embodiments, the chimera causes the death of autoreactive T cells having lesions or modifications in the NFkB pathway, which underlie an imbalance of their cell death (apoptosis) / survival signaling properties and, optionally, altered susceptibility to certain death-inducing signals (e.g., TNFR2 activation). In some embodiments, a TNFR2 based chimera has additional therapeutic applications in diseases, including various autoimmune diseases, heart disease, de-myelinating and neurodegenerative disorders, and infectious disease, among others. In an embodiment, the wild type TNF-a has the amino acid sequence of: TNF-a (SEQ ID NO: 340) VRSSSRTPSDKPVAHVVANPQAEGQLQWLNRRANALLANGVELRDNQLV VPSEGLYLIYSQVLFKGQGCPSTHVLLTHTISRIAVSYQTKVNLLSAIKSPCQ RETPEGAEAKPWYEPIYLGGVFQLEKGDRLSAEINRPDYLDFAESGQVYF GIIAL In such embodiments, the modified TNF-α agent has mutations at one or more amino acid positions 29, 31, 32, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 145, 146 and 147 which produces a modified TNF-α with reduced receptor binding affinity.

In an embodiment, the wild type IL-1β has the amino acid sequence of: IL-1 beta (mature form, wild type) (SEQ ID NO: 343) APVRSLNCTLRDSQQKSLVMSGPYELKALHLQGQDMEQQVVFSMSFVQG EESNDKIPVALGLKEKNLYLSCVLKDDKPTLQLESVDPKNYPKKKMEKRFV FNKIEINNKLEFESAQFPNWYISTSQAENMPVFLGGTKGGQDITDFTMQFV SS IL1 is a proinflammatory cytokine and an important immune system regulator. It is a potent activator of CD4 T cell responses, increases proportion of Th17 cells and expansion of IFNy and IL-4 producing cells. IL-1 is also a potent regulator of CD8<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup> T cells, enhancing antigen-specific CD8<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup> T cell expansion, differentiation, migration to periphery and memory. IL-1 receptors comprise IL-1R1 and IL-1R2. Binding to and signaling through the IL-1R1 constitutes the mechanism whereby IL-1 mediates many of its biological (and pathological) activities.

In some embodiments, the modified IL-1 has reduced affinity and / or activity (e.g. agonistic activity) for IL-1R1. In some embodiments, the modified IL-1 has substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for IL-1R2. In such embodiments, there is restorable IL-1 / IL-1R1 signaling and prevention of loss of therapeutic chimeras at IL-R2 and therefore a reduction in dose of IL-1 that is required (e.g. relative to wild type or a chimera bearing only an attenuation mutation for IL-R1). Such constructs find use in, for example, methods of treating cancer, including, for example, stimulating the immune system to mount an anti-cancer response. In some embodiments, the modified IL-1 has reduced affinity and / or activity (e.g. antagonistic activity, e.g. natural antagonistic activity or antagonistic activity that is the result of one or more mutations, see, e.g., WO 2015 / 007520) for IL-1R1.

Such constructs find use in, for example, methods of treating autoimmune diseases, including, for example, suppressing the immune system. In such embodiments, the modified signaling agent has a deletion of amino acids 52-54 which produces a modified human IL-1β with reduced binding affinity for type I IL-1R and reduced biological activity. See, for example, WO 1994 / 000491. In some embodiments, the modified human IL-1β has one or more substitution mutations selected from A117G / P118G, R120X, L122A, T125G / L126G, R127G, Q130X, Q131G, K132A, S137G / Q138Y, L145G, H146X, L145A / L147A, Q148X, Q148G / Q150G, Q150G / D151A, M152G, F162A, F162A / Q164E, F166A, Q164E / E167K, N169G / D170G, I172A, V174A, K208E, K209X, K209A / K210A, K219X, E221X, E221 S / N224A, N224S / K225S, E244K, N245Q (where X can be any change in amino acid, e.g., a non- conservative change), which exhibit reduced binding to IL-1R, as described, for example, in WO2015 / 007542 and WO / 2015 / 007536, (numbering base on the human IL-1 β sequence, Genbank accession number NP_000567, version NP-000567.1, GI: 10835145). In some embodiments, the modified human IL-1β may have one or more mutations selected from R120A, R120G, Q130A, Q130W, H146A, H146G, H146E, H146N, H146R, Q148E, Q148G, Q148L, K209A, K209D, K219S, K219Q, E221S and E221K.

In an embodiment, the modified signaling agent is IL-2. In such an embodiment, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for IL-2Rα and / or IL-2Rβ and / or IL-2Rγ. In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for IL-2Rβ and / or IL-2Rγ. In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent has substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for IL-2Ra. Such embodiments may be relevant for treatment of cancer, for instance when the modified IL-2 is agonistic at IL-2Rβ and / or IL-2Rγ. For instance, the present constructs may favor attenuated activation of CD8<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup> T cells (which can provide an anti-tumor effect), which have IL2 receptors β and γ and disfavor T<com:Sub>regs< / com:Sub> (which can provide an immune suppressive, pro- tumor effect), which have IL2 receptors <com:Math><semantics>α<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\alpha< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math>, <com:Math><semantics>β<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\beta< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math>, and <com:Math><semantics>γ<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\gamma< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math>. Further, in some embodiments, the preferences for IL-2R<com:Math><semantics>β<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\beta< / annotation>< / semantics>< / com:Math> and / or IL-2Ry over IL-2Ra avoid IL-2 side effects such as pulmonary edema. Also, IL-2-based chimeras are useful for the treatment of autoimmune diseases, for instance when the modified IL-2 is antagonistic (e.g. natural antagonistic activity or antagonistic activity that is the result of one or more mutations, see, e.g., WO 2015 / 007520) at IL-2Rβ and / or IL-2Rγ. For instance, the present constructs may favor attenuated suppression of CD8<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup> T cells (and therefore dampen the immune response), which have IL2 receptors β and γ and disfavor T<com:Sub>regs< / com:Sub> which have IL2 receptors α, β, and γ. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the chimeras bearing IL-2 favor the activation of T<com:Sub>regs< / com:Sub>, and therefore immune suppression, and activation of disfavor of CD8<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup> T cells. For instance, these constructs find use in the treatment of diseases or diseases that would benefit from immune suppression, e.g. autoimmune disorders. In some embodiments, the chimeric protein has targeting moieties as described herein directed to CD8<com:Sup>+< / com:Sup> T cells as well as a modified IL-2 agent having reduced affinity and / or activity for IL-2Rβ and / or IL-2Rγ and / or substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for IL-2Ra. In some embodiments, these constructs provide targeted CD8+ T cell activity and are generally inactive (or have substantially reduced activity) towards T<com:Sub>reg< / com:Sub> cells. In some embodiments, such constructs have enhanced immune stimulatory effect compared to wild type IL-2 (e.g., without wishing to be bound by theory, by not stimulating Tregs), whilst eliminating or reducing the systemic toxicity associated with IL-2. In an embodiment, the wild type IL-2 has the amino acid sequence of: IL-2 (mature form, wild type) (SEQ ID NO: 344) APTSSSTKKTQLQLEHLLLDLQMILNGINNYKNPKLTRMLTFKFYMPKKATE LKHLQCLEEELKPLEEVLNLAQSKNFHLRPRDLISNINVIVLELKGSETTFMC EYADETATIVEFLNRWITFCQSIISTLT In such embodiments, the modified IL-2 agent has one or more mutations at amino acids L72 (L72G, L72A, L72S, L72T, L72Q, L72E, L72N, L72D, L72R, or L72K), F42 (F42A, F42G, F42S, F42T, F42Q, F42E, F42N, F42D, F42R, or F42K) and Y45 (Y45A, Y45G, Y45S, Y45T, Y45Q, Y45E, Y45N, Y45D, Y45R or Y45K).

Members include EGF, HB-EGF, and others such as TGFalpha, amphiregulin, neuregulins, epiregulin, betacellulin. EGF family receptors include EGFR (ErbB1), ErbB2, ErbB3 and ErbB4. These may function as homodimeric and / or heterodimeric receptor subtypes. The different EGF family members exhibit differential selectivity for the various receptor subtypes. For example, EGF associates with ErbB1 / ErbB1, ErbB1 / ErbB2, ErbB4 / ErbB2 and some other heterodimeric subtypes. HB-EGF has a similar pattern, although it also associates with ErbB4 / 4. Modulation of EGF (EGF-like) growth factor signaling, positively or negatively, is of considerable therapeutic interest. For example, inhibition of EGFRs signaling is of interest in the treatment of various cancers where EGFR signaling constitutes a major growth promoting signal. Alternatively, stimulation of EGFRs signaling is of therapeutic interest in, for example, promoting wound healing (acute and chronic), oral mucositis (a major side-effect of various cancer therapies, including, without limitation radiation therapy). In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for ErbB1, ErbB2, ErbB3, and / or ErbB4. Such embodiments find use, for example, in methods of treating wounds. In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent binds to one or more ErbB1, ErbB2, ErbB3, and ErbB4 and antagonizes the activity of the receptor. In such embodiments, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for ErbB1, ErbB2, ErbB3, and / or ErbB4 which allows for the activity of the receptor to be antagonized in an attenuated fashion. Such embodiments find use in, for example, treatments of cancer. In an embodiment, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for ErbB1. ErbB1 is the therapeutic target of kinase inhibitors - most have side effects because they are not very selective (e.g., gefitinib, erlotinib, afatinib, brigatinib and icotinib). In some embodiments, attenuated antagonistic ErbB1 signaling is more on-target and has less side effects than other agents targeting receptors for EGF. In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity (e.g. antagonistic e.g. natural antagonistic activity or antagonistic activity that is the result of one or more mutations, see, e.g., WO 2015 / 007520) for ErbB1 and / or substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for ErbB4 or other subtypes it may interact with. Through specific targeting via the targeting moiety, cell-selective suppression (antagonism e.g. natural antagonistic activity or antagonistic activity that is the result of one or more mutations, see, e.g., WO 2015 / 007520) of ErbB1 / ErbB1 receptor activation would be achieved – while not engaging other receptor subtypes potentially associated with inhibition-associated side effects. Hence, in contrast to EGFR kinase inhibitors, which inhibit EGFR activity in all cell types in the body, such a construct would provide a cell- selective (e.g., tumor cell with activated EGFR signaling due to amplification of receptor, overexpression etc.) anti-EGFR (ErbB1) drug effect with reduced side effects. In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity (e.g. agonistic) for ErbB4 and / or other subtypes it may interact with. Through targeting to specific target cells through the targeting moiety, a selective activation of ErbB1 signaling is achieved (e.g. epithelial cells). Such a construct finds use, in some embodiments, in the treatment of wounds (promoting would healing) with reduced side effects, especially for treatment of chronic conditions and application other than topical application of a therapeutic (e.g. systemic wound healing). In an embodiment, the modified signaling agent is insulin or insulin analogs. In some embodiments, the modified insulin or insulin analog has reduced affinity and / or activity for the insulin receptor and / or IGF1 or IGF2 receptor. In some embodiments, the modified insulin or insulin analog has substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for the insulin receptor and / or IGF1 or IGF2 receptor. Attenuated response at the insulin receptor allows for the control of diabetes, obesity, metabolic disorders and the like while directing away from IGF1 or IGF2 receptor avoids pro-cancer effects. In an embodiment, the modified signaling agent is insulin-like growth factor-I or insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF-1 or IGF-2). In an embodiment, the modified signaling agent is IGF-1. In such an embodiment, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for the insulin receptor and / or IGF1 receptor. In an embodiment, the modified signaling agent may bind to the IGF1 receptor and antagonize the activity of the receptor. In such an embodiment, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for IGF1 receptor which allows for the activity of the receptor to be antagonized in an attenuated fashion. In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent has substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for the insulin receptor and / or IGF1 receptor. In some embodiments, the modified signaling agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for IGF2 receptor which allows for the activity of the receptor to be antagonized in an attenuated fashion. In an embodiment, the modified signaling agent has substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for the insulin receptor and accordingly does not interfere with insulin signaling. In various embodiments, this applies to cancer treatment. In various embodiments, the present agents may prevent IR isoform A from causing resistance to cancer treatments. In an embodiment, the modified signaling agent is EPO. In various embodiments, the modified EPO agent has reduced affinity and / or activity for the EPO receptor (EPOR) receptor and / or the ephrin receptor (EphR) relative to wild type EPO or other EPO based agents described herein. In some embodiments, the modified EPO agent has substantially reduced or ablated affinity and / or activity for the EPO receptor (EPOR) receptor and / or the Eph receptor (EphR). Illustrative EPO receptors include, but are not limited to, an EPOR homodimer or an EPOR / CD131 heterodimer. Also included as an EPO receptor is beta-common receptor (βcR). Illustrative Eph receptors include, but are not limited to, EPHA1, EPHA2, EPHA3, EPHA4, EPHA5, EPHA6, EPHA7, EPHA8, EPHA9, EPHA10, EPHB1, EPHB2, EPHB3, EPHB4, EPHB5, and EPHB6. In some embodiments, the modified EPO protein comprises one or more mutations that cause the EPO protein to have reduced affinity for receptors that comprise one or more different EPO receptors or Eph receptors (e.g. heterodimer, heterotrimers, etc., including by way of non-limitation: EPOR-EPHB4, EPOR- βcR-EPOR). Also provided are the receptors of EP Patent Publication No. 2492355, including by way of non-limitation, NEPORs.
