Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Antibody antigen binding domains which specifically binds human leptin comprises VH or VL CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 sequences of an hLept antibody. The antibody antigen binding domains and antibodies thereof are useful to treat obesity and diabetes.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An isolated antibody designated hLept3 that binds human leptin and comprises V H CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 sequences: GGTFSSYA (SEQ ID NO:7), IIPIFGTA (SEQ ID NO:8), and ARSQVPSSYYYGMDV (SEQ ID NO:9), and V L CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 sequences: NSNIGAGYH (SEQ ID NO:20), GDT, and QSYDRSRGGWF (SEQ ID NO:21). 2. The antibody of claim 1 , comprising the V H and V L sequences: (SEQ ID NO: 65) QVQLVQSGAEVKKPGSSVKVSCKASGGTFSSYAISWVRQAPGQGLEWMG GIIPIFGTANYAQKFQGRVTITADESTSTAYMELSSLRSEDTAVYYCAR SQVPSSYYYGMDVWGQGTMVTVSS, and (SEQ ID NO: 66) QSVLTQPPSVSGAPGQRVTISCTGGNSNIGAGYHVHWYQQLPGAAPKLL IYGDTNRPSGVPDRFSGSQSGTSASLAITGLQADDEADYYCQSYDRSRG GWFFGGGTQLTVL 3.
