Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.

UiO‐66 metal–organic frameworks in biomedicine: From structural tunability to bioimaging, photodiagnostics, and photodynamic cancer therapy

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UiO‐66(Zr) metal–organic frameworks are chemically stable, biocompatible, and highly tunable nanomaterials. Their modular structure enables controlled drug delivery, multimodal bioimaging, and light‐activated photodynamic therapy, supporting integrated diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) applications in cancer and biomedical research.

The basement membrane protein nidogen-1 supports platelet adhesion and activation

Platelets, 2021
The core structure of the extracellular basement membrane is made up of self-assembling networks of collagen and laminin which associate with each other through the bridging adapter proteins including the sulfated monomeric glycoprotein nidogen.

CLP36 Is a Negative Regulator of Glycoprotein VI Signaling in Platelets [PDF]

Circulation Research, 2012
Rationale: At sites of vascular injury, exposed subendothelial collagens not only trigger sudden platelet adhesion and aggregation, thereby initiating normal hemostasis, but also can lead to acute ischemic diseases, such as myocardial infarction or stroke. The glycoprotein (GP) VI/Fc receptor γ-chain

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

New potential biomarkers for early chronic kidney disease diagnosis in patients with different glucose tolerance status

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
BackgroundThe purpose of the present study was to investigate the role of oxidative stress, platelet activation, and endocan levels in renal dysfunction in normal glucose tolerance (NGT) patients with 1-h plasma glucose values ≥155 mg/dl (NGT ≥ 155 ...

Accurate and noninvasive prostate cancer detection using plasma‐derived extracellular vesicle RNA

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plasma extracellular vesicles were captured with WGA‐conjugated magnetic beads and profiled for RNA biomarkers. A three‐RNA panel (NM_024955, NR_047469, and NR_002564) distinguished prostate cancer from healthy controls and benign prostatic hyperplasia, supporting a simple, noninvasive approach to improve prostate cancer detection.

GelMA‐based 3D spheroids recapitulate transcriptomic and functional hallmarks of myeloid sarcoma

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
GelMA 5% hydrogels support the formation of myeloid leukemia spheroids that recapitulate MS‐specific features, including G1 arrest, apoptosis, and ECM‐driven transcriptomic reprogramming. The 3D model mimicked soft‐tissue‐like stiffness and oxygen conditions, and transcriptomic convergence with primary MS samples confirmed its utility as a preclinical ...

Expression of glycoprotein VI in vascular endothelial cells

Platelets, 2003
Glycoprotein (GP) VI, a collagen receptor, plays a important role in collagen-mediated platelet aggregation and adhesion. To date, GPVI expression has been found only in platelets and megakaryocytes. In the present studies, we have demonstrated that GPVI was also expressed in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) at both transcript ...
