Porcine sialoadhesin (CD169/Siglec-1) is an endocytic receptor that allows targeted delivery of toxins and antigens to macrophages. [PDF]
Sialoadhesin is exclusively expressed on specific subpopulations of macrophages. Since sialoadhesin-positive macrophages are involved in inflammatory autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, and potentially in the generation of immune responses ...

Management of HER2-Low Metastatic Breast Cancer: A Comprehensive Statement by an Expert Group from the Middle East and Africa Region [PDF]
Approximately 50 to 67% of breast cancers (BCs), traditionally categorized as human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, but demonstrating low HER2 expression, are now being defined as a new HER2-low subset or HER2-low category of BC.

Antibody-drug conjugates in treating older patients suffering from cancer: what is the real value?
Immunotherapeutic drugs and target therapies have represented an epochal change in treating cancer patients. They represent an attractive option in oncologists’ armamentarium, particularly if we consider the optimal balance between efficacy and toxicity.

Analytical approaches for assessing immunoconjugates integrity and characterization prior to radiolabeling [PDF]
Immunoconjugates, which have highly specific targeting towards certain antigens, are molecules that are built from three parts: an antibody, a therapeutic payload, and a linker between them.

DOTA-functionalized polylysine: a high number of DOTA chelates positively influences the biodistribution of enzymatic conjugated anti-tumor antibody chCE7agl. [PDF]
Site-specific enzymatic reactions with microbial transglutaminase (mTGase) lead to a homogenous species of immunoconjugates with a defined ligand/antibody ratio.
