T-cell-directed killing of tumor cells using bispecific antibodies is a promising approach for the treatment of hematologic malignancies. Here we describe our preclinical work with a dual-affinity retargeting (DART) molecule generated from antibodies to CD3 and CD123, designed to redirect T cells against acute myeloid leukemia blasts. The CD3×CD123 DART (also referred to as MGD006/S80880) consists of 2 independent polypeptides, each composed of the VH of 1 antibody in tandem with the VL of the other antibody. The target antigen CD123 (interleukin 3RA) is highly and differentially expressed in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) blasts compared with normal hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. In this study we demonstrate that the CD3×CD123 DART binds to both human CD3 and CD123 to mediate target-effector cell association, T-cell activation, proliferation, and receptor diversification. The CD3×CD123 DART also induces a dose-dependent killing of AML cell lines and primary AML blasts in vitro and in vivo. These results provide the basis for testing the CD3×CD123 DART in the treatment of patients with CD123(+) AML.

Spilled plant-based oils behave very differently in comparison to petroleum oils and require different clean-up measures. They do not evaporate, disperse, dissolve, or emulsify to a significant degree but can polymerize and form an impermeable cap on sediment, smothering benthic media and resulting in an immediate impact on the wildlife community. The current study explored the application of rapid up-to-date direct analysis in real time (DART) with high-resolution mass spectrometry for plant-based oil typing.

In this study, antiulcer activity of ethanolic extract and solvent fractions of the aerial part of was investigated using ethanol-induced model of gastric ulceration in rats. The results showed that ethyl acetate, non-polar components and diethyl ether fractions have a remarkable antiulcerogenic activity; because they exhibited control-ulcer protection by 85.2%, 77.

The increasing global demand for plastic has raised the need for effective waste plastic management due to its long lifetime and resistance to environmental degradation. There is a need for rapid plastic identification to improve the mechanical waste plastic sorting process. This study presents a novel application of Temperature-Programmed Desorption-Direct Analysis in Real Time-High Resolution Mass Spectrometry (TPD-DART-HRMS) that enables rapid characterization of various plastics.

Background And Purpose: Daily online adaptive radiotherapy (DART) increases treatment accuracy by crafting daily customized plans that adjust to the patient's daily setup and anatomy. The routine application of DART is limited by its resource-intensive processes. This study proposes a novel DART strategy for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), automizing the process by propagating physician-edited treatment contours for each fraction.

Purpose: To assess whether exposure to an extended-release (ER) oxycodone with abuse deterrent properties (ADF) reduced tampering of oxycodone in a real-world, postmarket setting to address the thinking behind Category 4 labeling by the FDA.
Methods: Data from an observational cross-sectional study of the general adult population (2022) was used under a causal framework to estimate the confounding-adjusted odds of tampering oxycodone after exposure to two types of ADF ER oxycodone. The tampering behaviors of those who used only single entity immediate-release (SE-IR) oxycodone was used as a comparison.
