Zusammenfassung:To provide means for selectively depleting target antigen-specific antibodies from the body.SOLUTION: The present disclosure includes a fusion protein, called a "Seldeg", including a targeting component that specifically binds to a cell surface receptor or other cell surface molecule at near-neutral pH, and an antigen component fused directly or indirectly to the targeting component. The antigen component is configured to specifically bind a target antigen-specific antibody. The present disclosure also includes a method of depleting a target antigen-specific antibody from a patient by administering to the patient a Seldeg having an antigen component configured to specifically bind the target antigen-specific antibody.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】体から標的抗原特異的抗体を選択的に枯渇させる手段を提供する。【解決手段】本開示は、中性近辺のpHで細胞表面受容体又は他の細胞表面分子に特異的に結合する標的成分及び標的成分と直接又は間接的に融合した抗原成分を含む"Seldeg"と呼ばれる融合タンパク質を含む。前記抗原成分は標的抗原特異的抗体に特異的に結合するように構成される。本開示は、前記標的抗原特異的抗体に特異的に結合するように構成された抗原成分を有するSeldegを患者に投与することによって、患者から標的抗原特異的抗体を枯渇させる方法も含む。【選択図】図1
