  1. 1. Compact-disc microfluidic methods for characterization of therapeutic antibodies : Analysis of post-translational modifications

    Author : Thi Thuy Tran; Gunnar Thorsén; McLean John; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Microfluidic CD; therapeutic antibodies; post-translational modifications; glycosylation profiling; multivariate statistical analysis; MALDI-MS; Analytical Chemistry; analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : Characterization of post-translational modifications (PTMs) of therapeutic proteins is very important during the bioprocess development to maintain desired product quality and during the submission process to regulatory authorities for product approval. Monitoring glycosylation in pharmacokinetic studies can be useful to evaluate the dependence of clearance rates on different glycoforms. READ MORE

  2. 2. On the Use of 76Br-labelled Monoclonal Antibodies for PET : Preclinical Evaluation of Halogenated Antibodies for Diagnosis and Treatment of Cancer

    Author : Johanna Höglund; Katrine Riklund-Åhlström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncology; bromine-76; positron emission tomography; monoclonal antibodies; cancer; direct and indirect radiohalogenation; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi; radiologi; Radiology;

    Abstract : Radioactive substances are used in vivo to localize and characterize malignant tumours, generally by scintigraphic methods. In this context positron emission tomography (PET) in combination with radiolabelled monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) may provide a sensitive and specific method for detection of cancer. READ MORE

  3. 3. Platforms and strategies harnessing signaling pathways of multifactorial diseases by multispecific antibodies

    Author : Aman Mebrahtu; Johan Rockberg; Fredrik Y. Frejd; Janine Schuurman; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antibodies; Bispecific antibodies; Multispecific affinity proteins; Protein engineering; Protein expression; Cancer; Immunotherapy; Autoimmunity; Systemic Lupus Erythematosus; Affibody molecules; AffiMab; Antikroppar; Bispecifika antikroppar; Multispecifika affinitets protein; Protein engineering; Protein uttryck; Cancer; Immunoterapai; Autoimmunitet; Systemic Lupus Erythematosus; Affibody molekyler; AffiMab; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : Abstract [ENG]Proteins govern a multitude of biological functions vital to sustain life. The ability to withstand diseases development and harboring a defense against foreign pathogens is attributed to the wonders of the immune system and the proteins and cells its comprised of.

  4. 4. Therapeutic Cancer Vaccines Targeting Molecules Associated with Tumor Angiogenesis

    Author : Julia Femel; Anna-Karin Olsson; Grietje (Ingrid) Molema; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; tumor; therapeutic; cancer vaccine; angiogenesis; vasculature; fibronectin; galectin-1; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi; Oncology; Onkologi; Biomedicinsk laboratorievetenskap; Biomedical Laboratory Science; Medical Science; Medicinsk vetenskap;

    Abstract : Induction of an endogenous antibody response by therapeutic vaccination could provide an alternative to cost-intensive monoclonal antibody-based treatments for cancer. Since the target of a cancer vaccine will most likely be a self-antigen, self-tolerance of the immune system must be circumvented. READ MORE

  5. 5. Calcium-dependent Affinity Domains for the Purification of Antibodies and Antibody Fragments

    Author : Julia Scheffel; Sophia Hober; Alois Jungbauer; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Antibodies; Antibody fragments; Biomanufacturing; Protein purification; Protein engineering; Protein A; ZCa; Calcium; Mild elution; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : Antibodies are essential proteins in both our bodies and biotechnological research, and hold outstanding therapeutic value. The market for antibody-based therapeutics has grown exponentially during the last decades, owing to several advantages over small molecule drugs, such as fewer undesirable side effects associated with a higher target specificity.
