ANTI-ICAM-1 SINGLE DOMAIN ANTIBODY AND USES THEREOF

摘要

Anti-ICAM-1 VHH single-domain antibodies (sdAbs) are generated by immunizing a llama with recombinant ICAM-1. These antibodies are linked to an imaging moiety for in vivo or ex vivo imaging of ICAM-1-related pathological conditions including atherosclerotic plaques. The antibodies may also be linked to a therapeutic agent to specifically target and treat ICAM-1-related pathological conditions.
