Clinical profile and treatment outcome of older (>75 years) patients with systemic AL amyloidosis

Haematologica, 2015
Systemic AL amyloidosis, a disease with improving outcomes using novel therapies, is increasingly recognized in the elderly but treatment and outcomes have not been systematically studied in this group of patients in whom comorbidities and frailty may ...

Ubiquitin-derived artificial binding proteins targeting oncofetal fibronectin reveal scaffold plasticity by β-strand slippage

Communications Biology
Affilin proteins, artificial binding proteins based on the ubiquitin scaffold, have been generated by directed protein evolution to yield de-novo variants that bind the extra-domain B (EDB) of oncofetal fibronectin, an established marker of tumor ...

Structure and stability of recombinant bovine odorant-binding protein: II. Unfolding of the monomeric forms [PDF]

PeerJ, 2016
In a family of monomeric odorant-binding proteins (OBPs), bovine OBP (bOBP), that lacks conserved disulfide bond found in other OBPs, occupies unique niche because of its ability to form domain-swapped dimers.

Structure and stability of recombinant bovine odorant-binding protein: I. Design and analysis of monomeric mutants [PDF]

PeerJ, 2016
Bovine odorant-binding protein (bOBP) differs from other lipocalins by lacking the conserved disulfide bond and for being able to form the domain-swapped dimers.

Targeted drug delivery using nanobodies to deliver effective molecules to breast cancer cells: the most attractive application of nanobodies

Cancer Cell International
Targeted drug delivery is one of the attractive ways in which cancer treatment can significantly reduce side effects. In the last two decades, the use of antibodies as a tool for accurate detection of cancer has been noted. On the other hand, the binding

Structure and stability of recombinant bovine odorant-binding protein: III. Peculiarities of the wild type bOBP unfolding in crowded milieu [PDF]

PeerJ, 2016
Contrary to the majority of the members of the lipocalin family, which are stable monomers with the specific OBP fold (a β-barrel consisting of a 8-stranded anti-parallel β-sheet followed by a short α-helical segment, a ninth β-strand, and a disordered C-

Sperm associated antigen 9 (SPAG9) a promising therapeutic target of ovarian carcinoma

Tumor Biology, 2018
SPAG9 is a novel tumor associated antigen, expressed in variety of malignancies. However, its role in ovarian cancer remains unexplored. SPAG9 expression was validated in ovarian cancer cells by real time PCR and Western blot.

Revealing the tissue-level complexity of endogenous glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor expression and signaling

Nature Communications, 2023
Visualizing endogenous GPCRs is challenging. Here the authors generate mice with an enzyme self-label genome-edited into the endogenous glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor locus, design fluorescent dyes for specific labelling in complex tissue, and reveal ...

Knockdown of A-kinase anchor protein 4 inhibits proliferation of triple-negative breast cancer cells and

Tumor Biology, 2020
Triple-negative breast cancers are the most aggressive subtypes with poor prognosis due to lack of targeted cancer therapy. Recently, we reported an association of A-kinase anchor protein 4 expression with various clinico-pathological parameters of ...
