Polypeptides for binding to the receptor for advanced glycation endproducts as well as compositions and methods involving the same

摘要

The present invention relates to a polypeptide or polypeptide complex comprising at least the two amino acid sequences arranged to allow for specific binding to the "receptor for advanced glycation endproducts" (RAGE), one or more nucleic acid(s) coding for the polypeptide or polypeptide complex, a cell producing an antibody against RAGE, a pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one polypeptide or nucleic as defined above, optionally for treating a RAGE-related disease or disorder and a method of diagnosing a RAGE-related disease or disorder.
