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 ...

IgG Glycosylation‐Dependent CLEC7A Signaling Drives Podocyte Dysfunction in Lupus Nephritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Lupus nephritis (LN) is a severe complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) that can lead to end‐stage kidney disease and increased mortality. IgG from patients with LN displays abnormal glycosylation, contributing to podocyte injury.

Population pharmacokinetics of levofloxacin in breastmilk in patients with rifampicin‐resistant tuberculosis

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Levofloxacin is a widely used antibiotic included in rifampicin‐resistant tuberculosis (RR‐TB) treatment. Data describing levofloxacin concentrations in breastmilk and infant exposure are limited. We analysed data from two South African studies of breastfeeding women receiving levofloxacin (750–1000 mg daily) for RR‐TB.

Characterization of Immune Responses to RBD‐SD1 Nanoparticle Vaccines Derived From ACE2‐Capable HKU5‐CoV‐2, NeoCoV, and HKU5 Merbecoviruses

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
SpyCatcher‐mi3 nanoparticles presenting HKU5, NeoCoV, and HKU5‐CoV‐2 RBD‐SD1 induced strong, cross‐reactive IgG responses in immunized mice. The surrogate virus neutralization test demonstrated strong activity in sera from homologous vaccination. ABSTRACT Recent discoveries of merbecoviruses such as HKU5, NeoCoV, and HKU5‐CoV‐2 that use angiotensin ...
