The monoclonal antibody nBT062 conjugated to maytansinoids has potent and selective cytotoxicity against CD138 positive multiple myeloma cells _in vitro_ and _in vivo_ [PDF]

, 2008
CD138 (Syndecan1) is highly expressed on multiple myeloma (MM) cells. In this study, we examined the anti-MM effect of murine/human chimeric CD138-specific monoclonal antibody (mAb) nBT062 conjugated with highly cytotoxic maytansinoid derivatives _in ...

Urologic Bacteriome: The Hero or the Villain in Prostate Cancer Onset, Progression, and Treatment?

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most frequently diagnosed cancer in men worldwide and the fifth leading cause of cancer‐related mortality, presenting urgent unmet clinical needs in diagnosis and treatment. The recognition of the microbiome as a key factor in human health has prompted numerous studies, revealing an exciting new approach to ...

Hemophilia A: An Ideal Disease for Prenatal Therapy

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemophilia A (HA) is the most common inherited coagulation defect. Current state‐of‐the‐art treatment consists of frequent administration of prophylactic infusions of coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) protein or bispecific antibodies that replace the cofactor function of FVIIIa to maintain hemostasis. However, these treatments are far from ideal,

Spontaneous development of neoplasms in severe combined immunodeficient mice

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2015
Severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice lack functional T and B cells. This renders them useful for implantation of human cells. The absence of immune cells, however, makes severe combined immunodeficient mice highly susceptible to infections and ...

In Utero HSC Transplantation for Sickle Cell Disease: A Potential Therapeutic Approach That Overcomes Complications of Current Therapies

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects millions worldwide but has limited treatment options, most of which carry significant side effects. At present, the only curative treatment for SCD is allogeneic or gene‐modified autologous hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation (Tx).

Restoration of T and B Cell Differentiation after RAG1 Gene Transfer in Human RAG1 Defective Hematopoietic Stem Cells

Biomedicines
Recombinase-activating gene (RAG)-deficient SCID patients lack B and T lymphocytes due to the inability to rearrange immunoglobulin and T cell receptor genes. The two RAG genes act as a required dimer to initiate gene recombination.

Trajectories of Suicidal Risk Impact Mood Regulation Differently in Patients With a Diagnosis of Bipolar Disorder

Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Bipolar disorder (BD) carries a suicide risk 20 times higher than the general population, with up to 60% of patients attempting suicide. Current interventions have failed to reduce its incidence; static factors have shown limited predictive utility.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells From a Klinefelter Syndrome Patient: Functional Characterization and Therapeutic Implications

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cell therapy, particularly those utilizing mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), is gaining traction as a therapeutic option for regenerative treatment in patients with limited therapeutic options. Although the safety of MSC‐based interventions is well established, uncertainties remain regarding how genetic abnormalities and ...

MYC Addiction as a Targetable Vulnerability in Nelarabine‐Resistant T‐Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
MYC drives nelarabine resistance in T‐ALL via a hyperactive transcriptional program. Pharmacological degradation of BET proteins dismantles this addiction, restoring drug sensitivity and extending survival in vivo. ABSTRACT Acquired resistance represents a fundamental obstacle limiting the long‐term efficacy of cancer chemotherapy.

Dclre1c-Mutation-Induced Immunocompromised Mice Are a Novel Model for Human Xenograft Research

Biomolecules
Severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice serve as a critical model for human xenotransplantation studies, yet they often suffer from low engraftment rates and susceptibility to graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).
