Altered IgG N-Glycosylation at Onset of Type 1 Diabetes in Children Is Predominantly Driven by Changes in the Fab N-Glycans

Biomedicines
Background: N-glycosylation is a post-translational modification involving the attachment of oligosaccharides to proteins and is known to influence immunoglobulin G (IgG) effector functions and even antigen binding.

Using Synthetic Glycans to Investigate Anti‐Glycan Antibodies and Explore Their Medical Potential

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Anti‐glycan antibodies are essential in health and disease. Access to novel glycan structures paves the way for progress in antibody profiling for biomarker discovery, antibody development, and vaccine design. We summarize the strategies to synthesize and utilize synthetic glycans for the development and application of anti‐glycan antibodies in basic ...

Junctional Bradycardia as Early Sign of Digoxin Toxicity in a Premature Infant with Congestive Heart Failure due to a Left to Right Shunt

American Journal of Perinatology Reports, 2016
Introduction Congestive heart failure due to left to right cardiac shunt is usually managed medically with diuretics, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, and, in some cases, with the addition of digoxin.

Biochemical and structural characterization of the human gut microbiome metallopeptidase IgAse provides insight into its unique specificity for the Fab' region of IgA1 and IgA2.

PLoS Pathogens
Human immunoglobulin A (IgA), comprising the isotypes IgA1 and IgA2, protects ~400 m2 of mucosal surfaces against microbial infections but can also lead to aberrant IgA deposits that cause disease. Certain bacteria have evolved peptidases that cleave the

Screening of bispecific antibodies during single cell cloning of recombinant Chinese hamster ovary cell lines to improve titer and product quality

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
Abstract Development of therapeutic bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) poses significant manufacturability challenges associated with correct chain pairing and an increased diversity of impurities. Here we address this with a product quality assessment during cell line development (CLD), forgoing the need for genetic characterization during cell line ...

Staphylococcus pseudintermedius Sbi paralogs inhibit complement and bind IgM, IgG Fc and Fab.

PLoS ONE, 2019
The success of staphylococci as pathogens has been attributed, in part, to their ability to evade their hosts' immune systems. Although the proteins involved in evasion have been extensively studied in staphylococci affecting humans little ...

Recombinant Monoclonal Antibodies for Detecting the Tubulin Post‐Translational Modifications Glutamylation and Lysine‐40 Acetylation

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Post‐translational modifications (PTMs) to tubulin subunits in microtubule filaments are thought to comprise a component of the tubulin code that specifies microtubule functions in cell physiology and animal development. Acetylation of Lysine‐40 (K40) on α‐tubulin (αTub‐K40ac) and glutamylation of both α‐ and β‐tubulin are two tubulin PTMs of ...

Flow cytometry‐based monitoring of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells: Reagent selection, assay design, and clinical utility

Cytometry Part B: Clinical Cytometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurate quantification of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells is essential for monitoring post‐infusion CART expansion and persistence and for real‐time clinical decision‐making. Multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) enables rapid, live‐cell detection with absolute quantification and concurrent immunophenotypic characterization. This review
