8 results about "Isotype" patented technology

In immunology, the immunoglobulin (Ig) isotype (class) is encoded by the constant region segments of the immunoglobulin gene which form the Fc (Fragment crystallizable region) portion and the lower segment of the Fab (Fragment antigen-binding) portion of an antibody. The expression of a specific isotype determines the function of an antibody via the specific binding to Fc receptor molecules on different immune effector cells. Isotype expression reflects the maturation stage of a B cell. Naive B cells express IgM and IgD isotypes with unmutated variable genes, which are produced from the same initial transcript following alternative splicing. Expression of other antibody isotypes (IgD, IgM IgG1-4, IgA1-2, IgE) occurs via a process of class-switch recombination (CSR) after antigen exposure. Class-switching is mediated by the AID (activation-induced cytidine deaminase) enzyme and only occurs after the B cell binds an antigen through its B cell receptor, and is further activated through interaction with a T helper cell.

Monoclonal mouse antibodies against human estrogen receptor, human progesterone receptor, human ki-67, and human p53

Breast cancer is a serious type of cancer that affects many women each year, often leading to death. To choose the right treatment for breast cancer, studying biomarkers is crucial, and one way to do this is by using the immunohistochemical technique (IHC). Biomarkers like Estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), Ki67, and P53 play a crucial role in determining the prognosis, progression, and response to treatment of breast cancer. Specific monoclonal antibodies against these biomarkers were created by immunizing mice with peptides derived from these proteins. These antibodies were then tested for specificity using ELISA and IHC staining on normal and cancerous tissues, confirming their ability to recognize the receptors. Additionally, the antibodies were evaluated for isotype, affinity constant, and their ability to detect natural antigens in flow cytometry and western blot.

Methods for assessing cardiac mesothelial cell distribution based on immunofluorescence images

This invention relates to the field of image analysis technology, specifically to a method for assessing the distribution of cardiac mesothelial cells based on immunofluorescence images. The method includes: acquiring multiple immunofluorescence images of cardiac mesothelial cells at different antibody concentrations within the assessment group; determining initial cardiac mesothelial cell regions based on the staining status of the isotype control group and the differences in staining depth among multiple staining regions in the immunofluorescence images; analyzing non-specific staining based on changes in the staining area and irregular cell boundaries of the initial cardiac mesothelial cell regions, and adjusting the antibody concentration accordingly; determining multiple target cardiac mesothelial cell regions, and obtaining the location information of the cardiac mesothelial cells based on the degree of overlap and similarity between these regions; and analyzing the spacing distribution of cardiac mesothelial cells and their distribution in the immunofluorescence images based on the location information to obtain the uniformity of the cardiac mesothelial cell distribution.

Anti-dr5 antibodies and methods of use thereof

The present invention relates to monospecific or bispecific antibody molecules that specifically bind the human DR5 antigen. The invention relates in particular to DR5-specific antibody molecules of the IgG1 isotype having a mutation in the Fc region that enhances clustering of IgG molecules after cell-surface antigen binding leading to the induction of DR5 signalling, apoptosis and cell death. The invention further relates to a combination of antibody molecules binding different epitopes on DR5. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing these molecules and the treatment of cancer using these compositions.
