Pseudotyping of VSV with Ebola virus glycoprotein is superior to HIV-1 for the assessment of neutralising antibodies

February 15, 2022 0 Comments

Ebola virus (EBOV) is an enveloped, single-stranded RNA virus that can cause Ebola virus disease (EVD). It is thought that EVD survivors are protected against subsequent infection with EBOV and that neutralising antibodies to the viral surface glycoprotein (GP) are potential correlates of protection. Serological studies are vital to assess neutralising antibodies targeted to EBOV …

HRP-conjugated Anti-EPO antibodies for direct rhEPO detection – proof of concept

February 15, 2022 0 Comments

Anti-doping testing for recombinant human erythropoietin (EPO) is routinely performed by gel electrophoresis followed by western blot analysis with primary and secondary antibodies. The two antibody steps add more than 24 hours to the testing time of a purified sample. The aim of this study was to test the concept of using directly horseradish-peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated …

An Anti-HER2 Monoclonal Antibody H 2 Mab-41 Exerts Antitumor Activities in Mouse Xenograft Model Using Dog HER2-Overexpressed Cells

February 15, 2022 0 Comments

Overexpression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) has been reported in a variety of cancer types, including breast, lung, gastric, pancreatic, and colorectal cancers. Trastuzumab, a humanized anti-HER2 monoclonal antibody (mAb), has been shown to provide significant survival benefits in HER2-overexpressing breast cancer and gastric cancer patients. Previously, an anti-HER2 mAb, H2Mab-41 (IgG2b, …

Adaptation of an ELISA assay for detection of IgG 2a responses against therapeutic monoclonal antibodies in a mouse immunization model

February 15, 2022 0 Comments

Biotherapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAb) play important roles in clinical medicine but their potential to elicit immune responses in patients remains a major issue. In a study designed to investigate the effect of aggregation on immunogenic responses, mice were immunized with two monoclonal antibodies (mAb1 and mAb2). Serum levels of total IgG, IgG1, and IgG2a were measured …

Preparation of rabbit polyclonal antibody against porcine gasdermin D protein and determination of the expression of gasdermin D in cultured cells and porcine tissues

February 15, 2022 0 Comments

Gasdermin-D (GSDMD) is a member of the gasdermin (Gsdm) protein family, and its cleavage by inflammatory cysteine proteases (caspases, CASPs) is a critical event in cell pyroptosis. The role and functions of GSDMD on mice and humans are widely studied, but its expression, structure, and function in other species are less known. In the present …

Insect Cells-Baculovirus System for the Production of Difficult to Express Proteins: From Expression Screening for Soluble Constructs to Protein Quality Control

February 5, 2022 0 Comments

Rapid preparation of proteins for functional and structural analysis is a major challenge both in academia and industry. The number potential targets continuously increases and many are difficult to express proteins which, when produced in bacteria, result in insoluble and/or misfolded recombinant proteins, protein aggregates, or unusable low protein yield. We focus here on the baculovirus expression vector system …
