Systemic sclerostin antibody treatment increases osseointegration and biomechanical competence of zoledronic-acid-coated dental implants in a rat osteoporosis model [PDF]
European Cells & Materials, 2019 Osseointegration of dental implants can be promoted by implant-surface modifications using bisphosphonate coatings. In addition, it is of clinical interest to promote peri-implant bone formation and to restore bony structure in low bone-mass patients ...

Analysis of immune network dynamical system model with small number of degrees of freedom [PDF]
, 2000 We numerically study a dynamical system model of an idiotypic immune network with a small number of degrees of freedom. The model was originally introduced by Varela et.al., and describes antibodies interacting in a body in order to prepare for the invasion of external antigens. The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the direction of change

Anti-platelet factor 4/polyanion antibodies mediate a new mechanism of autoimmunity [PDF]
, 2020 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).

When Two are Better than One: Modeling the Mechanisms of Antibody Mixtures [PDF]
, 2019 It is difficult to predict how antibodies will behave when mixed together, even after each has been independently characterized. Here, we present a statistical mechanical model for the activity of antibody mixtures that accounts for whether pairs of antibodies bind to distinct or overlapping epitopes.

Dynamic Optimization for Monoclonal Antibody Production [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 This paper presents a dynamic optimization numerical case study for Monoclonal Antibody (mAb) production. The fermentation is conducted in a continuous perfusion reactor. We represent the existing model in terms of a general modeling methodology well-suited for simulation and optimization. The model consists of six ordinary differential equations (ODEs)

ASAP-SML: An Antibody Sequence Analysis Pipeline Using Statistical Testing and Machine Learning [PDF]
, 2020 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.

Improving antibody language models with native pairing [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Current antibody language models are limited by their use of unpaired antibody sequence data and the biases in publicly available antibody sequence datasets, which are skewed toward antibodies against a relatively small number of pathogens. A recently published dataset (by Jaffe, et al) of approximately 1.6 x 10^6 natively paired human antibody ...

eLife, 2021 Antibody production following vaccination can provide protective immunity to subsequent infection by pathogens such as influenza viruses. However, circumstances where antibody formation is impaired after vaccination, such as in older people, require us ...
