The COVID Complex: A Review of Platelet Activation and Immune Complexes in COVID-19
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a highly prothrombotic viral infection that primarily manifests as an acute respiratory syndrome. However, critically ill COVID-19 patients will often develop venous thromboembolism with associated increases in ...

A combined computational-experimental approach to define the structural origin of antibody recognition of sialyl-Tn, a tumor-associated carbohydrate antigen. [PDF]
Anti-carbohydrate monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) hold great promise as cancer therapeutics and diagnostics. However, their specificity can be mixed, and detailed characterization is problematic, because antibody-glycan complexes are challenging to ...

Isolation of Circulating Immune Complexes from TB Patient Serum for Serodiagnosis
Estimation of circulating immune complex in tuberculosis patients has shown better insight to the infection. Isolating circulating immune complex helps quantifying both antigen and antibody in the serum. It’s a simple procedure to improve the sensitivity

Radioimmunoprecipitation Assay for Australia Antigen, Antibody, and Antigen-Antibody Complexes
SummaryPurified Australia antigen [Au(1)], conjugated with 125I, was reacted with and quantitatively precipitated by human anti-Au(1) in the presence of heterologous antihuman IgG and “dilute” ammonium sulfate. The sensitivity of the devised radioim-munoprecipitation assay procedure proved to be up to 1000 times more sensitive for the detection of ...

Identification of a synaptic vesicle-specific membrane protein with a wide distribution in neuronal and neurosecretory tissue. [PDF]
Two different monoclonal antibodies, characterized initially as binding synaptic terminal regions of rat brain, bind a 65,000-dalton protein, which is exposed on the outer surface of brain synaptic vesicles. Immunocytochemical experiments at the electron
