Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Improving cellular cancer vaccines [PDF]
, 2010 Immunization with cancer cells is of great demand in anti-cancer therapy. However, current cellular vaccines are inefficient and there are questions regarding their overall safety. We report a simple and straightforward approach for improving of cellular

HBV Vaccines: Advances and Development
, 2023 Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a global public health problem that is closely related to liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The prevalence of acute and chronic HBV infection, liver cirrhosis, and HCC has significantly decreased as ...

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Mixed allele malaria vaccines: Host protection and within-host selection [PDF]
, 2008 Malaria parasites are frequently polymorphic at the antigenic tat-gets of many candidate vaccines, presumably as a consequence of selection pressure from protective immune responses.

Mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities of the ribotoxic stress response in cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Cancer cells' high translational demand creates opportunities to therapeutically target ribosome function. Ribosome stalling and collisions activate ZAKα and the ribotoxic stress response (RSR), which can trigger rapid, p53‐independent apoptosis in cancer.

Versatile vector tools for efficient protein screening across multiple expression systems
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.A unified vector toolkit enables rapid protein expression screening across E. coli, insect, and mammalian cells. A single primer pair amplifies the target gene, which is inserted into any vector via a standardized interface. This streamlined workflow eliminates repeated cloning steps, accelerating the identification of optimal expression conditions for
