1. A method for treatment of a subject suffering from eye disease, comprising:
administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of an anti-TrkB antibody or the antigen-binding fragment thereof comprising:
I.a. a light chain variable region comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 48 (L-CDR1); the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 49 (L-CDR2); and the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 50 (L-CDR3); and
I.b. a heavy chain variable region comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 51 (H-CDR1); the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 52 (H-CDR2); and the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 53 (H-CDR3), or
I.c. a heavy chain variable region comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 55 (H-CDR1); the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 56 (H-CDR2); and the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 57 (H-CDR3), or
I.d. a heavy chain variable region comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 58 (H-CDR1); the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 59 (H-CDR2); and the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 60 (H-CDR3), or
administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of an anti-TrkB antibody or the antigen-binding fragment thereof comprising:
II.a. a variable light chain and a variable heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NO: 2 and SEQ ID NO: 12, respectively, or
II.b. a variable light chain and a variable heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NO: 3 and SEQ ID NO: 13, respectively, or
II.c. a variable light chain and a variable heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NO: 4 and SEQ ID NO: 14, respectively, or
II.d. a variable light chain and a variable heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NO: 5 and SEQ ID NO: 15, respectively, or
II.e. a variable light chain and a variable heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NO: 6 and SEQ ID NO: 16, respectively, or
II.f. a variable light chain and a variable heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NO: 7 and SEQ ID NO: 17, respectively, or
II.g. a variable light chain and a variable heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NO: 8 and SEQ ID NO: 18, respectively, or
II.h. a variable light chain and a variable heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NO: 9 and SEQ ID NO: 19, respectively, or
II.i. a variable light chain and a variable heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NO: 10 and SEQ ID NO: 20, respectively, or
administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of an anti-TrkB antibody or the antigen-binding fragment thereof comprising:
III.a. a light chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 21 and a heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 22 or 23, or
III.b. a light chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 24 and a heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 25 or 26, or
III.c. a light chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 27 and a heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 28 or 29, or
III.d. a light chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 30 and a heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 31 or 32, or
III.e. a light chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 33 and a heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 34 or 35, or
III.f. a light chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 36 and a heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 37 or 38, or
III.g. a light chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 39 and a heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 40 or 41, or
III.h. a light chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 42 and a heavy chain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 43 or 44, or
