The invention relates to the field of binding moleculescomprising at least one single variable antibody domain, targeted at receptors present on myofibroblasts and/or hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). The invention also relates to a binding molecule comprising at least two single variable antibody domains, each targeting a receptor on HSCs and/or on myofibroblasts. The invention further relates to nucleic acids encoding such binding molecules,a host cell for expression of such binding molecules and to methods for preparing such binding molecules. The invention further relates to pharmaceutical compositions that comprise such binding molecule and to uses of such binding molecules and/or compositions, in particular for prophylactic, therapeutic or diagnostic purposes.
该发明涉及结合分子领域,其中至少包含一个单一可变
抗体结构域,针对存在于肌成纤维细胞和/或肝星状细胞(HSCs)上的受体。该发明还涉及一种包含至少两个单一可变
