Nonclinical immunogenicity risk assessment for knobs-into-holes bispecific IgG1 antibodies
Bispecific antibodies, including bispecific IgG, are emerging as an important new class of antibody therapeutics. As a result, we, as well as others, have developed engineering strategies designed to facilitate the efficient production of bispecific IgG ...

Combined aptamer and transcriptome sequencing of single cells. [PDF]
The transcriptome and proteome encode distinct information that is important for characterizing heterogeneous biological systems. We demonstrate a method to simultaneously characterize the transcriptomes and proteomes of single cells at high throughput ...

Engineering a novel IgG-like bispecific antibody against enterovirus A71
Frequent outbreaks of enterovirus A71 (EVA71) occur in the Asia-Pacific area, and these are closely associated with severe neurological symptoms in young children. No effective antiviral therapy is currently available for the treatment of EVA71 infection.

The efficiency of CD4 recruitment to ligand-engaged TCR controls the agonist/partial agonist properties of peptide-MHC molecule ligands. [PDF]
One hypothesis seeking to explain the signaling and biological properties of T cell receptor for antigen (TCR) partial agonists and antagonists is the coreceptor density/kinetic model, which proposes that the pharmacologic behavior of a TCR ligand is ...

Activity of a Novel bcl-2/bcl-xL-Bispecific Antisense Oligonucleotide Against Tumors of Diverse Histologic Origins [PDF]
Background: Increased expression of the anti-apoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL is involved in the development and progression of many tumors. We recently reported that the bcl-2/bcl-xL-bispecific antisense oligonucleotide 4625 induces apoptosis in lung
