Antibody Watch: Text Mining Antibody Specificity from the Literature [PDF]
Antibodies are widely used reagents to test for expression of proteins and other antigens. However, they might not always reliably produce results when they do not specifically bind to the target proteins that their providers designed them for, leading to unreliable research results.

Lassa virus (LASV) is a rodent-borne arenavirus circulating in West African regions that causes Lassa fever (LF). LF is normally asymptomatic at the initial infection stage, but can progress to severe disease with multiorgan collapse and hemorrhagic ...

Antibody Representation Learning for Drug Discovery [PDF]
Therapeutic antibody development has become an increasingly popular approach for drug development. To date, antibody therapeutics are largely developed using large scale experimental screens of antibody libraries containing hundreds of millions of antibody sequences.

ASAP-SML: An Antibody Sequence Analysis Pipeline Using Statistical Testing and Machine Learning [PDF]
Antibodies are capable of potently and specifically binding individual antigens and, in some cases, disrupting their functions. The key challenge in generating antibody-based inhibitors is the lack of fundamental information relating sequences of antibodies to their unique properties as inhibitors.

Adjuvants are crucial components of vaccines that can enhance and modulate antigen-specific immune responses. Herein, we reported for the first time that human metallothionein-3 (MT3), a low molecular weight cysteine-rich metal-binding protein, was a ...

The association between life events, social support, and antibody status following thymus-dependent and thymus-independent vaccinations in healthy young adults [PDF]
This study determined whether stressful life events and social support were related to antibody status following both thymus-dependent and thymus-independent vaccinations. Life events in the previous year and customary social support were measured in 57

Anti-platelet factor 4/polyanion antibodies mediate a new mechanism of autoimmunity [PDF]
Antibodies recognizing complexes of the chemokine platelet factor 4 (PF4-CXCL4) and polyanions (P) opsonize PF4-coated bacteria hereby mediating bacterial host defense. A subset of these antibodies may activate platelets after binding to PF4-heparin complexes, causing the prothrombotic adverse drug reaction heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT).

Intrathecal B-cell activation in LGI1 antibody encephalitis. [PDF]
ObjectiveTo study intrathecal B-cell activity in leucine-rich, glioma-inactivated 1 (LGI1) antibody encephalitis. In patients with LGI1 antibodies, the lack of CSF lymphocytosis or oligoclonal bands and serum-predominant LGI1 antibodies suggests a ...

Not All Antibodies Are Created Equal: Factors That Influence Antibody Mediated Rejection. [PDF]
Consistent with Dr. Paul Terasaki's "humoral theory of rejection" numerous studies have shown that HLA antibodies can cause acute and chronic antibody mediated rejection (AMR) and decreased graft survival. New evidence also supports a role for antibodies
