Development of cysteine cathepsin inhibitors combined with cell type-specific delivery for the treatment of B-cell lymphoma and solid tumors

Cysteine cathepsins proteases are enzymes that play essential physiological roles, but their activity is also associated to different aspects of cancer progression and to the development of other diseases. Therefore, cysteine cathepsins are relevant and pr ...

Site-selective template-directed synthesis of antibody Fc conjugates with concomitant ligand release

Natalia Gasilova, Jean-Manuel Segura, David Viertl

Template-directed methods are emerging as some of the most effective means to conjugate payloads at selective sites of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). We have previously reported a method based on an engineered Fc-III reactive peptide to conjugate a radionuc ...

Rational Design of Chemically Controlled Antibodies and Protein Therapeutics

Li Tang, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Sandrine Madeleine Suzanne Georgeon, Anthony Marchand, Leo Scheller, Lucia Bonati, Pablo Gainza Cirauqui, Stéphane Rosset, Sailan Shui

Protein-based therapeutics, such as monoclonal antibodies and cytokines, are important therapies for various pathophysiological conditions such as oncology, autoimmune disorders, and viral infections. However, the wide application of such protein therapeut ...

Engineering Innate and Adaptive Immunity for Enhanced Cancer Immunotherapy

Min Gao

Cancer immunotherapy has become an attractive strategy among different therapeutic modalities over the past few years and has showed great success in the clinic. However, there are many outstanding challenges hindering the current immunotherapies. In my Ph ...

Novel trehalose-based excipients for stabilizing nebulized anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody

Sandrine Gerber, François Rémi Pierre Noverraz, Solène Marcelle Françoise Marie Passemard

COVID-19 is caused by the infection of the lungs by SARS-CoV-2. Monoclonal antibodies, such as sotrovimab, showed great efficiency in neutralizing the virus before its internalization by lung epithelial cells. However, parenteral routes are still the prefe ...

Systematic analysis of biomolecular binding reactions using microfluidic systems

Amir Shahein

Transcription factor binding to a single binding site on DNA and its functional consequence in a promoter context are beginning to be relatively well understood. However, binding to clusters of sites has yet to be characterized in depth, and the functional ...

Investigating receptor-mediated antibody transcytosis using blood-brain barrier organoid arrays

Nathalie Brandenberg, Camilla Carla Alma Ceroni

Background The pathways that control protein transport across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) remain poorly characterized. Despite great advances in recapitulating the human BBB in vitro, current models are not suitable for systematic analysis of the molecul ...

Low-energy electron holography imaging of conformational variability of single-antibody molecules from electrospray ion beam deposition

Klaus Kern, Stephan Rauschenbach, Sabine Abb, Sven Alexander Szilagyi, Hannah Julia Ochner

Imaging of proteins at the single-molecule level can reveal conformational variability, which is essential for the understanding of biomolecules. To this end, a biologically relevant state of the sample must be retained during both sample preparation and i ...

Targeting the oncogenic signaling of the transcription factor STAT3 with potent and selective monobody inhibitors

Grégory La Sala

Many targeted cancer therapies fail to improve the overall survival of patients. Limitations involve low drug selectivity and the rapid development of resistance. Moreover, the majority of oncogenic drivers presently remain considered as undruggable as th ...

How specific are the conformation-specific α-synuclein antibodies? Characterization and validation of 16 α-synuclein conformation-specific antibodies using well-characterized preparations of α-synuclein monomers, fibrils and oligomers with distinct structures and morphology

Hilal Lashuel, Somanath Jagannath

Increasing evidence suggests that alpha-synuclein (α-syn) oligomers are obligate intermediates in the pathway involved in α-syn fibrillization and Lewy body (LB) formation, and may also accumulate within LBs in Parkinson's disease (PD) and other synucleino ...
