AI Technical Summary
Current treatments for autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, often fail to effectively target B cells, leading to incomplete responses and potential side effects, while the identification of Siglec-binding molecules with cis-trans converter properties for therapeutic intervention is challenging and laborious.
A method is developed to identify Siglec-binding molecules, like anti-CD22 antibodies, by co-expressing them with Siglec on a cell surface, incubating with a ligand, and comparing binding amounts to determine cis-trans converter properties, using a specially designed nucleotide cassette for bicistronic gene expression.
This approach facilitates the identification of antibodies with enhanced cis-trans converter capabilities, potentially providing more effective immunomodulatory effects and therapeutic outcomes for autoimmune diseases.
