RPL22 is a tumor suppressor in MSI-high cancers and a splicing regulator of MDM4.

Microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) tumors are malignant tumors that, despite harboring a high mutational burden, often have intact TP53. One of the most frequent mutations in MSI-H tumors is a frameshift mutation in RPL22, a ribosomal protein. Here, we identified RPL22 as a modulator of MDM4 splicing through an alternative splicing switch in exon 6.

Effect of molecular size on interstitial pharmacokinetics and tissue catabolism of antibodies.

Advances in antibody engineering have enabled the construction of novel molecular formats in diverse shapes and sizes, providing new opportunities for biologic therapies and expanding the need to understand how various structural aspects affect their distribution properties. To assess the effect of antibody size on systemic pharmacokinetics (PK) and tissue distribution with or without neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) binding, we evaluated a series of non-mouse-binding anti-glycoprotein D monoclonal antibody formats, including IgG [~150 kDa], one-armed IgG [~100 kDa], IgG-HAHQ (attenuated FcRn binding) [~150 kDa], F(ab') [~100 kDa], and F(ab) [~50 kDa]. Tissue-specific concentration-time profiles were corrected for blood content based on vascular volumes and normalized based on interstitial volumes to allow estimation of interstitial concentrations and interstitial:serum concentration ratios.
