Monitoring pharmacodynamic and molecular drug targets in liquid biopsy: Exploratory study in liver cancer with modelling of EGFR Receptor engagement

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Liquid biopsy is minimally invasive (compared with tissue biopsy) and has previously been used to generate systems data regarding drug elimination via hepatic enzymes and transporters. This study extends quantitative assessment of systems parameters in liquid biopsy to pharmacodynamic (PD) and disease markers relevant to cancer development

Impact of mAb-FcRn affinity on IgG transcytosis across human well-differentiated airway epithelium

Frontiers in Immunology
Effective treatment and immunoprophylaxis of viral respiratory infections with neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) require maintaining inhibitory concentrations of mAbs at the airway surface.

Interactions of IgG1 CH2 and CH3 domains with FcRn

Frontiers in Immunology, 2014
Antibody fragments are emerging as promising biopharmaceuticals because of their relatively small size and other unique properties. However, when compared to full-size antibodies, most of the current antibody fragments of VH or VL display greatly reduced

Recent Advances (2023–2025) of Capillary Electrophoresis‐Mass Spectrometry (CE‐MS) for Top‐Down Proteomics

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Top‐down proteomics (TDP) characterizes proteoforms in cells, tissues, and biofluids, in discovery mode and on a global scale, requiring analytical tools with high peak capacity for proteoform separation and high sensitivity for proteoform detection, given the extremely high proteoform complexity and wide proteoform concentration dynamic range.

Transmissible Gastroenteritis Virus Infection Up-Regulates FcRn Expression via Nucleocapsid Protein and Secretion of TGF-β in Porcine Intestinal Epithelial Cells

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) is a porcine intestinal coronavirus that causes fatal severe watery diarrhea in piglets. The neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) is the only IgG transport receptor, its expression on mucosal surfaces is triggered upon ...

Management of Refractory Thymoma‐Associated Myasthenia Gravis With Sequential FcRn Antagonist and Complement Inhibition Combined With Resection of Pleural Dissemination

Neurology and Clinical Neuroscience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myasthenia gravis (MG) associated with disseminated thymoma is often refractory to conventional treatments due to continuous autoantibody production. The optimal treatment strategy, particularly the combination of complement component 5 (C5) inhibitor, neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) antagonist, and surgical resection in thymoma‐associated ...

Robust expression of the human neonatal Fc receptor in a truncated soluble form and as a full-length membrane-bound protein in fusion with eGFP.

PLoS ONE, 2013
Studies on the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) have revealed a multitude of important functions in mammals, including protection of IgG and serum albumin (SA) from lysosomal degradation.

Stabilization of Keratinocyte Monolayer Integrity in the Presence of Anti-Desmoglein-3 Antibodies through FcRn Blockade with Efgartigimod: Novel Treatment Paradigm for Pemphigus?

Cells, 2022
Pemphigus vulgaris is an autoimmune blistering disease of the epidermis, caused by autoantibodies against desmosomal proteins, mainly desmogleins 1 and 3, which induce an impairment of desmosomal adhesion and blister formation. Recent findings have shown

Effectiveness and safety of efgartigimod in patients with anti‐NMDAR or anti‐LGI1 encephalitis and its 18F‐DPA714 PET imaging evaluation: A multicenter, single‐arm, prospective, observational real‐world study

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Efgartigimod disrupts the recycling of pathogenic IgG autoantibodies and may represent a candidate therapy for autoimmune encephalitis. This real‐world study evaluated the clinical efficacy, safety, and impact of efgartigimod on brain inflammation.

Hemolytic Disease of the Fetus and Newborn: Fetal RHD Genotyping, Targeted Prophylaxis, and Prenatal Therapies

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) remains a significant concern in prenatal care primarily caused by maternal alloimmunization against fetal red blood cell antigens, most commonly the D antigen. Noninvasive fetal RHD genotyping, used as a screening tool, enables targeted antenatal prophylaxis and has been implemented in several
