Aim: To produce the monoclonal antibodies (mAb) against Heavy Metal Chromium, and develop a competitive inhibition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ciELISA) for the detection of Chromium.

Methods: Chromium ions was chelated with bifunctional chelating agent Isothio-cyanobenzyl- EDTA firstly and then conjugated with bovin serum alburmin(BSA) and ovalbmin(OVA) respectively to complete antigens . Four female BALB/c mice were immunized with Cr-iEDTA-BSA, the Hybridoma lines secreting monoclonal antibodies against Chromium ions were established by the hybridoma technology. The titer and the specificity of the antibodies were characterized in the way of indirect enzym-elinked immunosorbent assay (iELISA) and ciELISA.

Results: After immunization and cell fusion, three hybridomaes which can stably secrete mAbs against chromium were obtained. The antibody titer was up to 1×10(5);, only had 9.62% cross-reactivity to Fe(3+); and little to other ions. Linear detection of ciELISA for Chromium covered a range from 0.783 μg/L-50 μg/L with the limit at the level of 1 μg/L. An excellent correlation of results obtained by ciELISA and ICP-AES when the concentration more than 1 μg/L.

Conclusion: The monoclonal antibody against Chromium with high sensitivity and specificity has been generated and a competitive inhibition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the detection of Chromium ions has been established successfully, which was met the the national standard of water quality nonitoring.

P-cadherin, a crucial cell-cell adhesion protein which is overexpressed in numerous malignant cancers, is a popular target for drug delivery antibodies. However, molecular guidelines for engineering antibodies that can be internalized upon binding to P-cadherin are unknown. Here, we use a combination of biophysical, biochemical, and cell biological methods to demonstrate that trapping the P-cadherin extracellular region in an X-dimer adhesive conformation triggers cadherin endocytosis via an outside-in signaling mechanism.

Recent advancements in multiple myeloma (MM) treatment-including immunomodulatory drugs, proteasome inhibitors, monoclonal antibodies, and T cell-redirecting therapies like chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells and bispecific antibodies (BsAbs)-have significantly improved patient outcomes. However, MM remains incurable, highlighting the need for novel therapeutic strategies. BsAbs, which simultaneously target a tumor-specific antigen and CD3 on T cells, have shown promising efficacy.

This study demonstrates the analytical and clinical validity of the approved (United States and Japan) plasma-based Guardant360 companion diagnostic (CDx) test for selecting patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2 [ERBB2])-mutated (HER2m) non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) for trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) treatment. Concordance between the Guardant360 CDx test and the plasma-based AVENIO ctDNA Expanded Kit Assay (AVENIO), as well as the tissue-based clinical trial assays (CTAs) was investigated. Clinical utility was assessed by comparing T-DXd clinical efficacy results of patients in DESTINY-Lung01/02 who tested positive for HER2 mutations using the Guardant360 CDx test to benchmark efficacy results from DESTINY-Lung01/02.

Objective: To compare work loss after starting tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi), rituximab, abatacept or tocilizumab in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Methods: We used data from the Swedish Rheumatology Quality Register to identify patients aged 19-62 years who were treated with TNFi (n=15 093), rituximab (n=2123), abatacept (n=1877) or tocilizumab (n=1720) between 2007 and 2020. Data on work loss (0-365 days per year) from sick leave and disability pension were retrieved from linkage to the Social Insurance Agency.

Aims: Osteoclast energy metabolism is a promising target for treating diseases characterized by high osteoclast activity, such as osteoporosis. However, the regulatory factors involved in osteoclast bioenergetic processes are still in the early stages of being fully understood. This study reveals the effects of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) on osteoclast energy metabolism.
