In this study, a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) magnetic sensor is established based on SERS principle and magnetic separation technology, and a highly sensitive, simple and fast method for quantitative detection of neutralizing antibodies (nABs) and specific IgG of SARS-CoV-2 in plasma is established combined with immunoassay. Two kinds of Raman nanospheres (RNPs) with different characteristic Raman shifts are used as signal sources and coupled to ACE2 and anti-IgG (FC) antibodies respectively, and magnetic beads are coupled to RBD. The competitive relationship between ACE2 and nABs, the binding relationship between specific IgG and anti-IgG (FC) antibodies are determined. The results show that the concentrations of nABs and specific IgG in the range of 10-2000 ng mlare well correlated with SERS response intensity, and the recoveries are both between 90%-110%, with good precision. Bilirubin and common anticoagulants have no interference on the detection results. This method is accurate, reliable, sensitive and does not require complex pre-treatment, and is expected to be used for simultaneous detection of nABs and specific IgG in plasma of SARS-CoV-2. It has guiding significance for the development and evaluation of vaccines and the formulation of individualized vaccination schedule.

Objectives: To investigate the clinical and laboratory features of Sjögren's syndrome-associated autoimmune liver disease (SS-ALD) patients and identify potential risk and prognostic factors.
Methods: SS patients with or without ALD, who visited Tongji Hospital between the years 2011 and 2021 and met the 2012 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) classification criteria for Sjögren's syndrome, were retrospectively enrolled. The clinical and laboratory data of the enrolled patients, including autoimmune antibodies, were collected and analyzed with principal component analysis, correlation analysis, LASSO regression, and Cox regression.

Coxsackievirus A6 (CVA6) has emerged as a major pathogen causing hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) outbreaks worldwide. The CVA6 epidemic poses a new challenge in HFMD control since there is currently no vaccine available against CVA6 infections. The Vero cell line has been widely used in vaccine production, particularly in the preparation of viral vaccines, including poliovirus vaccines and EV71 vaccines.

The approved intravenous adeno-associated virus (AAV) therapies are limited by the widespread prevalence of pre-existing anti-AAV antibodies in the general population, which are known to restrict patients' ability to receive gene therapy and limit transfection efficacy in vivo. To address this challenge, we have developed a novel recombinant human immunoglobulin G degrading enzyme KJ103, characterized by low immunogenicity and clinical value for the elimination of anti-AAV antibodies in gene transfer. Herein, we conducted two randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose Phase I studies in China and New Zealand, to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety and immunogenicity of KJ103 in healthy volunteers.

Purpose: In this study, we examined novel autoantibodies targeting tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) as biomarkers for clinical assessment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in a Chinese population.
Methods And Methods: A total of 119 patients with HCC and 130 healthy control (HC) volunteers who were age and gender matched were enrolled. The levels of circulating IgG antibodies were detected using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent test (ELISA) developed in-house with linear peptide antigens derived from Annexin A1(ANXA1) and proto-oncogene protein (MYC).
