Construction of a Humanized Artificial VHH Library Reproducing Structural Features of Camelid VHHs for Therapeutics [PDF]

open access: yesAntibodies, 2022
A variable domain of heavy chain antibody (VHH) has different binding properties than conventional antibodies. Conventional antibodies prefer binding to the convex portion of the antigen, whereas VHHs prefer epitopes, such as crevices and clefts on the antigen.

Selection of single domain anti-transferrin receptor antibodies for blood-brain barrier transcytosis using a neurotensin based assay and histological assessment of target engagement in a mouse model of Alzheimer's related amyloid-beta pathology.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) presents a major obstacle in developing specific diagnostic imaging agents for many neurological disorders. In this study we aimed to generate single domain anti-mouse transferrin receptor antibodies (anti-mTfR VHHs) to ...

The Dynamics of Vowel Hypo- and Hyperarticulation in Swedish Infant-Directed Speech to 12-Month-Olds

open access: yesFrontiers in Communication, 2020
Vowel hypo- and hyperarticulation (VHH) was investigated in Swedish infant-directed speech (IDS) to Swedish 12-month-olds using a measure that normalizes across speakers and vowels: the vhh-index. The vhh-index gives the degree of VHH for each individual

Development and characterization of a camelid derived antibody targeting a linear epitope in the hinge domain of human PCSK9 protein

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
PCSK9 is an effective target for lowering LDL-c. Previously, a camelid-human chimeric heavy chain antibody VHH-B11-Fc targeting human PCSK9 was designed. It had a potent hypolipidemic effect.

Peptide Linker Affecting the Activity Retention Rate of VHH in Immunosorbents

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
VHH-based immunosorbents are an emerging and promising tool for the removal of toxic substances from plasma. However, the small size of VHHs is a double-edged sword, bringing both benefits and drawbacks to the immunosorbent.
