Insights into the mechanism of cell death induced by saporin delivered into cancer cells by an antibody fusion protein targeting the transferrin receptor 1 [PDF]
We previously developed an antibody-avidin fusion protein (ch128.1Av) that targets the human transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1) and exhibits direct cytotoxicity against malignant B cells in an iron-dependent manner. ch128.1Av is also a delivery system and its

Advanced Human Immune Cell‐Organoid Co‐Cultures for Functional Testing of Cancer Nanovaccines
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma remains difficult to treat. We establish an organoid–immune co‐culture using patient‐derived organoids and matched T‐cells to assess cancer vaccines. A mesothelin‐targeted nanovaccine activates antigen‐specific T‐cells, increases IFN‐γ, and targets MSLN+ organoids.

Immunotoxins Targeting B cell Malignancy—Progress and Problems With Immunogenicity
Few immunotoxins or targeted toxins have become mainline cancer therapies. Still immunotoxins continue to be of major interest and subject of research and development as alternative therapies for drug resistant cancer. A major matter of concern continues

The CNS Meninges and the Synovial Joint: Parallel Immunological Structures in Autoimmune Disease
The meninges and synovium share multiple functional and structural characteristics and act as specialized immunological barriers. In MS and RA, both can host tertiary lymphoid organs (TLOs) and CD4+ Tph cells. We highlight how these features sustain compartmentalized inflammation and explore a possible role for EBV in their formation and persistence ...

A novel mouse model of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) with hippocampal sclerosis (HS) by unilateral, partial ablation of hippocampal GABAergic neurons is established. The model recapitulates key features of the human condition, including spontaneous recurrent seizures, HS‐like pathology, and associated cognitive deficits.

Design of a Humanized Immunotoxin Based on Pertuzumab-Derived scFv and Shiga-Like Toxin 2 Subunit A Against Breast Cancer: An In Silico Study [PDF]
Background and purpose: Breast cancer is the second cause of mortality among women. HER2, a member of the epidermal growth factor receptor family, is overexpressed in approximately 25% of breast cancer cases.
