AI Article Synopsis
- A new type of single chain tri-specific antibody (scTsAb), named TR3H, was developed to simplify the production and administration of bi-specific antibodies for cancer treatment.
- TR3H effectively activates T-cells by linking signals for CD3 and CD28 in one smaller molecule, enhancing its pharmacokinetics and reducing immunogenicity.
- TR3H specifically binds to both effector lymphocytes and ovarian tumor cells, successfully inducing targeted tumor cell destruction through unstimulated human peripheral blood lymphocytes.
Article Abstract
A combination of bi-specific antibodies (BsAb), anti-tumorxanti-CD3 and anti-tumorxanti-CD28, is effective in vitro and in vivo, whereas production of two kinds of bi-specific antibodies is labor intensive and administration is complicated. Accordingly, we previously developed a new model of single chain tri-specific antibody (scTsAb), sTRI, which linked both the CD3 and CD28 signals for T-cell activation in one molecule, and demonstrated its capacity for triggering T-cells to kill ovary tumor cells. To improve the pharmacokinetics further and decrease the immunogenicity of scTsAb, we have now generated a new format of scTsAb, TR3H, whose molecular size is smaller than sTRI. Here we describe the construction, purification and characterization of TR3H. TR3H scTsAb bound to effector cells and tumor target cells specifically and induced redirected lyses of ovary tumor cells through freshly isolated, unstimulated human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs). This new format of scTsAb possesses properties that support its potential as a new tumor immunotherapeutic agent.

Superhydrophobic fabrics suffer from being commonly penetrated by moisture after laundering, seriously deteriorating their water repellency after air drying. Numerous researchers have successfully recovered superhydrophobicity by drying in fluid ovens; however, high energy consumption and equipment dependence limit practical applications. Herein, the superhydrophobic photothermal self-healing cotton fabric (SPS cotton fabric) was fabricated by depositing a composite layer of cellulose nanocrystal-MXene (C-MXene) and polyacrylate (PA) coatings on the cotton cloth.

Many applications of enzymes benefit from activity on structurally diverse substrates. Here, we sought to engineer the decarboxylative aldolase UstD to perform a challenging C-C bond forming reaction with ketone electrophiles. The parent enzyme had only low levels of activity, portending multiple rounds of directed evolution and a possibility that mutations may inadvertently increase the specificity of the enzyme for a single model screening substrate.

Background: In this study we explored the association of polymorphisms of glutathione s transferase gene including GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 with adverse acute normal tissue reactions resulted from radiotherapy in HNC patients. We assessed the association of GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes and Ile105Val of exon-5 and Ala114Val of exon-6 of GSTP1 gene polymorphisms with the risk of acute skin toxicity reactions after therapeutic radiotherapy in HNC patients.
Methods: Four hundred HNC patients administered with Intensity modulated radiation therapy were enrolled in this study for the evaluation of radiotherapy associated toxicity reactions.
