The promise of anti-ErbB3 monoclonals as new cancer therapeutics
In the last 3-5 years strong evidence has been gathered demonstrating ErbB3 as a key node for the progression of several cancer types. From the mechanistic standpoint the intracellular region of this receptor is rich of tyrosine residues that, upon phosphorylation, become high affinity binding sites for PI3K and other proteins involved in signal transduction. The involvement of ErbB3 occurs at ...
متن کاملCD4-Binding Site Directed Cross-Neutralizing scFv Monoclonals from HIV-1 Subtype C Infected Indian Children
Progression of human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) infection in children is faster than adults. HIV-1 subtype C is responsible for more than 50% of the infections globally and more than 90% infections in India. To date, there is no effective vaccine against HIV-1. Recent animal studies and human Phase I trials showed promising results of the protective effect of anti-HIV-1 broadly neutr...
متن کاملThe POM Monoclonals: A Comprehensive Set of Antibodies to Non-Overlapping Prion Protein Epitopes
PrP(Sc), a misfolded and aggregated form of the cellular prion protein PrP(C), is the only defined constituent of the transmissible agent causing prion diseases. Expression of PrP(C) in the host organism is necessary for prion replication and for prion neurotoxicity. Understanding prion diseases necessitates detailed structural insights into PrP(C) and PrP(Sc). Towards this goal, we have develo...
متن کاملAntibodies against huntingtin: production and screening of monoclonals and single-chain recombinant forms.
Antibodies can be extremely useful tools for the field of triplet repeat diseases. These reagents are important for localizing proteins in tissues, and within cells, they can be used in the isolation and characterization of the components of protein complexes, they can distinguish proteins with normal or an expanded polyglutamine repeat, they may be able to distinguish distinct conformations of...
متن کاملQuinine-dependent, platelet-reactive monoclonals mimic antibodies found in patients with quinine-induced immune thrombocytopenia.
Drug-induced immune thrombocytopenia (DITP) is caused by drug-dependent antibodies (DDAbs) that are nonreactive in themselves but bind tightly to specific platelet membrane glycoproteins (GP) when soluble drug is present at pharmacologic concentrations. This reaction takes place without covalent linkage of drug to the target, indicating that drug does not function as a classical hapten to promo...
