Gene editing has emerged as a transformative tool in the field of biomedical science, with significant implications for the treatment of various diseases. The primary focus is on harnessing this technology for modifying primary T cells, a type of white blood cell crucial for the immune response. This approach has opened new avenues for immunotherapy, providing hope for treating conditions like ...
Gene delivery is a therapeutic strategy that’s revolutionizing biotechnology and pharmaceuticals. It involves the delivery of new genetic molecules into target cells to treat diseases. This technology has the implicit to revise the treatment of inherited genetic disorders, cancer and other intractable driseases. Scientists are using a variety of gene delivery strategies to insert new ...
Recombinant protein vaccine is a type of vaccine that does not contain complete pathogens and is prepared from specific protein antigens produced by heterologous expression systems. Due to their advantages of good safety, strong stability, and relatively low cost, recombinant protein vaccines have been widely favored by researchers in recent years. Currently, recombinant protein vaccines have ...
Flow cytometry (FC) is an important tool for analyzing complex pathways and responses of single cells, which can track cell phenotypes and functions in multiple dimensions. It is also increasingly applied in drug development. FC not only can detect intracellular and extracellular components, but also detect soluble analytes in serum or plasma samples, such as cytokines, drug complexes, or ...
Antibodies are the precise guidance components of ADCs. In theory, molecules that bring effector molecules to the surface of tumor cells can play the role of antibody guidance The choice of antibody for ADC drugs depends on the target of the disease. Targets can be divided into tumor-specific antigens (TSA) and tumor-associated antigens (TAA) according to their expression. Antigens that are only ...
Breast cancer is the malignant tumor with the highest morbidity and mortality among women worldwide. At present, the main therapeutic methods include surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, endocrine therapy and targeted therapy, etc. The development and marketing of new drugs have far-reaching significance in improving the survival of breast cancer patients and changing the pattern of breast cancer ...
Abstract Natural killer (NK) cells are emerging as a new tool for cell therapy of cancer. However, some cancer subtypes are relatively resistant to NK cell cytotoxicity. Expression of anti-CD19 chimeric signaling receptors can enhance NK-cell reactivity against CD19+ leukemia and lymphoma cells. Here we describe a method to enforce expression of such receptors in human NK cells relying on ...
Liposomes are a novel drug delivery system (DDS). They are bimolecular vesicles that form spontaneously when phospholipids are dispersed in water. Liposomes vary in size, composition and charge and can be used as carriers for a wide range of drug molecules, such as chemotherapeutic agents, antimicrobial and antiviral drugs, antiparasitic drugs, genetic material, vaccines, therapeutic proteins, ...
Self-amplifying RNA vaccines may induce equivalent or more potent immune responses at lower doses compared to non-repli- cating mRNA vaccines via amplified antigen expression. In this paper, we demonstrate that 1 mg of an LNP-formulated dual- antigen self-amplifying RNA vaccine (ZIP1642), encoding both the S-RBD and N antigen, elicits considerably higher neutral- izing antibody titers against ...
Adoptive cell transfer (ACT) therapy is one of the most effective therapeutic options for tumor immunotherapy that is currently emerging in clusters. Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) and engineered T cell receptors (TCRs) are the main adoptive immunotherapies in recent years. TCR-engineered T cells express tumor antigen-specific receptors with alpha and beta chains generated from high-quality, ...
Novel cytotoxic drugs New cytotoxic drugs have been developed to target cancer cells with low antigen expression or resistance to auristatins or maytansinoids. For this purpose, PBD dimers have been developed, which have a molecular structure containing two alkylated imine functional groups capable of forming covalent bonds with DNA.PBD dimers are about 50-100 times more potent than conventional ...
Vaccines are an unparalleled medical milestone that has saved countless lives by harnessing the human immune system, according to the history of human development. Vaccine remains the most effective source of defense against the COVID-19 pandemic since 2020. The success of the lipid nanoparticle COVID-19 mRNA vaccine shows that nanotechnology can be used in vaccine development. Compared to ...
In recent years, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have been widely sought after due to their excellent clinical performance and market returns. ADC drugs are composed of three parts: antibody, effector molecule (Payload, usually cytotoxic agent) and linker. Compared with traditional drugs, ADC drugs have obvious advantages in improving targeting and reducing side effects. 1. Global ADC listing ...
LONDON, June 28, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Treos Bio Limited (“Treos”), a clinical stage biotechnology company using data science and proprietary biomarkers to develop precision off-the-shelf and personalized peptide cancer immunotherapies, today announced the publication of a peer-reviewed article titled “A Peptide Vaccine Candidate Tailored to Individuals’ Genetics ...
Chimeric antigen receptor T-cells (CAR-T) are one of the first clinically approved therapies to take full advantage of the most significant advancements in immunology and genetic engineering. The resulting therapeutics have been shown to produce remission rates exceeding 80% in patients with CD19+ B-cell lymphoma, making them nothing short of remarkable [1]. Unfortunately, CAR-T cells seem ...
We report here the characterization of a mutant mouse line with a specific gene trap event in the Mdm4 locus. Absence of Mdm4 expression results in embryonic lethality (10.5 days postcoitum [dpc]), which was rescued by transferring the Mdm4 mutation into a Trp53-null background. Mutant embryos were characterized by overall growth deficiency, anemia, improper neural tube closure, and dilation of ...
