Engineering antibodies with cancer‐associated binding sites

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review describes antibodies that perform direct/indirect roles in cancer treatment by binding to effective targets and discusses how antibodies kill tumors and modulate tumor microenvironment through these targets. The classification of expression systems for antibody production is summarized to guide appropriate selection based on different ...

IgG Fab Fragments Forming Bivalent Complexes by a Conformational Mechanism That Is Reversible by Osmolytes*

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2012
Background: Isolated Fab fragments can spontaneously multimerize over time. Results: Distinct conformations are associated with monovalent Fabs versus those in bivalent complexes. Conclusion: Monovalency can be preserved upon conformational stabilization

Gamma-globulin Inhibits Superantigen-induced Lymphocyte Proliferation and Cytokine Production

Allergology International, 2007
Background: High-dose pooled human immunoglobulin (PHIG) treatment is sometimes effective in superantigen related inflammatory diseases, such as toxic shock syndrome and Kawasaki disease.

The Molecular Toolbox for Linkage Type‐Specific Analysis of Ubiquitin Signaling

ChemBioChem, EarlyView.
Ubiquitin modifications regulate virtually all aspects of eukaryotic cell biology through an array of polyubiquitin chain signals that adopt distinct structures, enabling the individual polyubiquitin linkages to mediate specific functions in cells.

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 ...

Lack of evidence for a substantial rate of templated mutagenesis in B cell diversification [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
B cell receptor sequences diversify through mutations introduced by purpose-built cellular machinery. A recent paper has concluded that a "templated mutagenesis" process is a major contributor to somatic hypermutation, and therefore immunoglobulin diversification, in mice and humans.

Classical and quantum cosmology of Fab Four John theories [PDF]

Physics Letters B 798 (2019) 135003, 2018
We present here a quantum cosmological model with Bohm-de Broglie interpretation of the theory described by a combination of two terms of the Fab Four cosmological theory. The first term is the John Lagrangian and the second is a potential representing matter content to avoid classical trivial solutions.

Cutting‐Edge Aptasensing Approaches for Electrochemical Detection of Exosomes Utilizing MXenes

ChemElectroChem, EarlyView.
This work notably summarizes research on 2D MXenes/MXene's‐hybrid‐based nanoplatforms patterned with aptamers as an alternative to antibodies affording highly sensitive and robust biosensing of exosomes as well as their efficient isolation. The exosomes are highlighted as a valuable source of biomarkers and with the immobilization approaches of ...

Dose Selection for DuoBody®‐CD40x4‐1BB (GEN1042/BNT312) Using a mPBPK/RO Model Leveraging Preclinical and Clinical Data

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Optimizing target engagement for bispecific antibodies (bsAbs) is challenging, as bsAbs bind to two different targets in vivo to form a trimolecular complex (trimer), and likely display a bell‐shaped concentration–response curve. bsAbs trimer formation is expected to be related to efficacy and safety, and determining the dose level at which it is ...
