Method for measuring thrombin-antithrombin III complex, blocking antibody, detection antibody, and kit

The invention discloses a thrombin-antithrombin III compound determination method, a blocking antibody, a detection antibody and a kit, the blocking antibody blocks the vicinity of the 274-site residue of the prothrombin nitrogen terminal, and the detection antibody is used as a capture antibody of a TAT compound and specially aims at the effect of thrombin close to the thrombin N terminal. When the closing antibody near the position behind the 274-site residue of the prothrombin nitrogen terminal is combined with the prothrombin antibody, the closing antibody can effectively prevent the detection antibody at the N terminal of the thrombin from combining with the prothrombin, but because the closing antibody near the position behind the 274-site residue of the prothrombin nitrogen terminal cannot combine with the thrombin, the closing antibody can effectively prevent the detection antibody at the N terminal of the thrombin from combining with the prothrombin. Therefore, the combination of the detection antibody at the N end of the thrombin to the thrombin is not influenced, and the TAT compound detection process is not interfered by high-concentration prothrombin in the plasma.

Monoclonal antibodies specific for IL20-Rb, encoding nucleic acids thereof and methods of use thereof to treat bacterial-induced exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Acute exacerbation of COPD (AE-COPD) in patients are mostly due to respiratory infection and are associated with an inexorable decline in lung function, enhanced oedema as well as airway and systemic inflammation. Previous results show that treatment with anti-IL-20Rb blocking antibodies increased the bacterial clearance in control mice infected by S. pneumoniae and protected CS-exposed mice from bacterial infection, by decreasing the bacterial burden and the inflammatory infiltrate. Therefore there is an interest for generating monoclonal antibodies specific for IL-20Rb with a neutralizing activity for their use in the treatment of AE-COPD. The present invention fulfills this need by providing antibodies having specificity for IL-20Rb.

Use of neutralizing Anti-AGR2 antibodies for preventing resistance to chemotherapy

PCT designated stage expiredWO2025109043A2Antibody ingredientsAntineoplastic agentsAdjuvantEfficacy
Most of therapeutic failures in chemotherapy during cancer invasion and metastasis are attributed to drug resistance. The inventors aimed to investigate the potential of targeting the secreted protein, eAGR2 as a novel adjuvant strategy to enhance the effectiveness of chemotherapy and overcoming chemoresistance in cancer therapy. Remarkably, extracellular AGR2 (eAGR2) demonstrated the ability to enhance resistance to both (doxorubicin and tamoxifen) treatments. Furthermore, even in the case of drug-resistant cancer cells that exhibited inherent resistance to chemotherapy, supplementation with an AGR2-blocking antibody restored sensitivity to tamoxifen in vitro. Thus, the inventor shed light on previously unknown chemotherapy resistance in resistant breast cancer cells, which can be effectively overcome by blocking eAGR2. Consequently, the inhibition of eAGR2 emerges as a promising adjunctive approach for concurrent administration alongside existing first- and second-line cancer therapies. This not only has the potential to bolster the efficacy of chemotherapy but also to prevent tumour chemoresistance.
