The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system plays a critical role in transplant immunology, influencing outcomes through various immune-mediated rejection mechanisms. Hyperacute rejection is driven by preformed donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) targeting HLAs, leading to complement activation and graft loss within hours to days. Acute rejection typically occurs within six months post-transplantation, involving cellular and humoral responses, including the formation of de novo DSAs.

Aflibercept and brolucizumab, two anti-VEGF agents used as intravitreal injections in ophthalmology, differ significantly in molecular weight (aflibercept-115 kDa and brolucizumab-26 kDa). Using aqueous humor samples collected after drug administration, we measured and performed a comparative analysis of pharmacokinetics and half-lives of these drugs in the human eye. Since the quantification of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) using antigen-antibody reactions, such as ELISA, is influenced by endogenous ligands or anti-drug antibodies, we employed nano-surface and molecular-orientation limited proteolysis (nSMOL), combined with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), for accurate measurements.

Microbial contamination is an important factor threatening the safety of Chinese medicine preparations, and microfluidic detection methods have demonstrated excellent advantages in the application of rapid bacterial detection. In our study, a novel optical biosensor was developed for the rapid and sensitive detection of in traditional Chinese medicine on a microfluidic chip. Immune gold@platinum nanocatalysts (Au@PtNCs) were utilized for specific bacterial labeling, while magnetic nano-beads (MNBs) with a novel high-gradient magnetic field were employed for the specific capture of bacteria.

Background: Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a cholestatic, autoimmune liver disease with the presence of characteristic autoantibodies. The aim of the work was to determine the level of antibodies directed against bacterial antigens: (anti-anti), (anti-), (anti- ) and () in sera of PBC patients. We also performed studies on the impact of the bacterial peptides on the specific antigen-antibody binding.

Antibodies have specific binding capabilities and therapeutic potential for treating various diseases, including viral infections. The amino acid composition of the hypervariable complementarity determining regions (CDR) loops and the framework regions (FR) are the determining factors for the affinity and therapeutic efficacy of the antibodies. In this study selected and curated, 77 viral antigen-human antibody complexes from Protein data bank from the Thera-SAbdab database were analyzed.
