Molecular and functional characterization of cynomolgus monkey IgG subclasses.
Studies for vaccine and human therapeutic Ab development in cynomolgus monkeys (cynos) are influenced by immune responses, with Ab responses playing a significant role in efficacy and immunogenicity. Understanding the nature of cyno humoral immune responses and characterizing the predominant cyno IgG types produced and the Fc-FcγR interactions could provide insight into the immunomodulatory eff...
متن کاملBiophysical and Functional Characterization of Rhesus Macaque IgG Subclasses
Antibodies raised in Indian rhesus macaques [Macaca mulatta (MM)] in many preclinical vaccine studies are often evaluated in vitro for titer, antigen-recognition breadth, neutralization potency, and/or effector function, and in vivo for potential associations with protection. However, despite reliance on this key animal model in translation of promising candidate vaccines for evaluation in firs...
متن کاملThe placental transfer of IgG in the cynomolgus monkey.
The placental transfer of IgG from the mother to her fetus was investigated with colony-bred cynomolgus monkeys. Very low levels of IgG were detected in sera of 84 days old fetus, indicating that transplacental transfer of IgG had started by this fetal age. Afterwards, gradual increase in the IgG level continued till 140 days of fetal age. A marked increase in the level was noted after 140 days...
متن کاملMolecular characterization and organ distribution of type A and B cholecystokinin receptors in cynomolgus monkey.
Differences in the molecular structure or organ distribution of receptors can limit the usefulness of a given species for drug studies. In this work, we have studied cholecystokinin (CCK) receptors in cynomolgus monkey, an animal model useful for preclinical testing. The type A CCK receptor cDNA was cloned and predicted to encode a 428 amino acid peptide that was 98% identical to the human rece...
متن کاملMolecular cloning of ELOVL4 gene from cynomolgus monkey (Macaca fascicularis).
ELOVL4, elongation factor of very long chain fatty acids-4, is known to be responsible for autosomal dominant macular degeneration and Stargardt-like macular degeneration. In this study, we cloned the monkey homologue of ELOVL4 and determined the cellular and tissue distribution of the gene product. Sequence analysis of the monkey ELOVL4 gene revealed a high degree of homology between human and...
