Microbials for the production of monoclonal antibodies and antibody fragments
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and antibody fragments represent the most important biopharmaceutical products today. Because full length antibodies are glycosylated, mammalian cells, which allow human-like N-glycosylation, are currently used for their production. However, mammalian cells have several drawbacks when it comes to bioprocessing and scale-up,

Modeling the mechanisms of antibody mixtures in viral infections: the cases of sequential homologous and heterologous dengue infections [PDF]
Antibodies play an essential role in the immune response to viral infections, vaccination, or antibody therapy. Nevertheless, they can be either protective or harmful during the immune response. Moreover, competition or cooperation between mixed antibodies can enhance or reduce this protective or harmful effect. Using the laws of chemical reactions, we

The receptor-toxin-antibody interaction: Mathematical model and numerical simulation [PDF]
A reaction-diffusion model of receptor-toxin-antibody (RTA) interaction is studied numerically. The protective properties of an antibody against a given toxin are evaluated for a spherical cell placed into a toxin-antibody solution. The selection of parameters for numerical simulation approximately corresponds to the practically relevant values ...
