Bispecific Antibodies and Bispecific Antibody ADCs
With the rapid development of antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), more and more companies have entered the field of ADC research and development, and various types of ADC technologies and branches have emerged. Bispecific antibody conjugates (BsAb ADCs) are one of the emerging new technologies. The high specificity of bispecific antibodies enables more precise targeting of tumor cells. On the other ...

What are the Possibilities for ADCs Targeting Trop2?
Antibody drug conjugate (ADC) research involves more and more targets, such as HER-2, Trop-2, Claudin-18.2, B7-H3 and B7-H4, etc. Trop-2 is a transmembrane glycoprotein. Its high expression is associated with the occurrence of many tumors and poor prognosis. It is a very popular ADC research target, second only to HER2. Currently, only Gilead's Trop-2 ADC drug Trodelvy has been approved for ...

CADM: A New Generation of Tumor Suppressor Genes
About Tumor Suppressor Genes A tumor suppressor gene, also known as anti-onco gene, is an essential component of the body's defense against cancer. It usually facilitates apoptosis. With its absence, the human body will be functioning without its “brake” of cell proliferation. Cells are potent to go under abnormal growth processes and finally lead to tumor/cancer. Here are some key ...

Antibody-Drug Conjugates For The Treatment of Prostate Cancer
Currently, ADC has played a significant role in the treatment of some malignant tumors, such as trastuzumab in the treatment of breast cancer, but its application in the treatment of prostate cancer (PCa) progress slowly. In recent years, ADC has made rapid progress in the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). STEAP1, TROP2, PSMA, CD46, and B7-H3 are currently ...

Protein Quantification Techniques and Their Application in Clinical Research
Representing the expression, post-translational modification, and protein-protein interaction for certain cells, tissues, or organs, proteomics has become an increasingly important means to understand the molecular mechanism and signal transduction of human disease and cancer. Protein levels in the body are in a steady state of equilibrium. Accumulation of proteins usually leads to qualitative ...

Common Gamma Chain Cytokines in Cancer Immunotherapy
Cytokines-mediated signaling is a primary way of immune system communication. The common gamma-chain family of cytokines is a set of six cytokines that signal through the common cytokine γ chain receptor (γc/CD132/IL2RG). These cytokines include IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, IL-15, and IL-21. Besides the IL-2RG receptor subunit, the γc family cytokine receptors include IL-2RB ...

A new model using artificial intelligence to predict recurrence after surgical resection of stage I-II non-small cell lung cancer.
Abstract Background: Five-year survival for stage I-II lung cancer is quite low even after complete surgical resection. Current guidelines recommend adjuvant treatment only for selected patients with stage II or higher disease. A prediction model that identifies patients at high risk of recurrence who may benefit from adjuvant treatment is greatly needed. Many existing prediction models include ...

The Life Cycle of Epstein-Barr Virus
Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) is a large enveloped virus of double-stranded DNA among the eight known herpesviruses. After EBV infection of cells, it accumulates in the nucleus, and there are two life cycles, with alternating phases of latency and lysis. EBV infection is associated with a variety of human malignancies and malignant tissue proliferative diseases, including malignant lymphoma, gastric ...

Synthetic lethal kinases in Ras/p53 mutant squamous cell carcinoma
Abstract The oncogene Ras and the tumor suppressor gene p53 are frequently co-mutated in human cancer and mutations in Ras and p53 can cooperate to generate a more malignant cell state. To discover novel druggable targets for cancers carrying co-mutations in Ras and p53, we performed arrayed, kinome focused siRNA and oncology drug phenotypic screening utilizing a set of syngeneic Ras mutant ...

Tumor Glycan-Targeted Therapy
Glycosylation is a sophisticated type of post-translational modification that impacts over 50% of cellular proteins and is a critical regulator of many eukaryotic processes. Aberrant glycosylation is a common hallmark of many malignancies and is important at all stages of tumor growth. Glycosylation regulates a range of physiopathological processes, including cell-cell adhesion, cell-matrix ...

Pioneering VeraForm in Head and Neck Cancer Treatment: Sarcomatoid Carcinoma Tumor Bed Marking
Head and neck cancer surgery presents a number of unique challenges, not only for the surgeon but for the radiation oncologist who will subsequently treat those patients. Great care with an emphasis on precision must be taken to ensure that critical structures and tissues avoid collateral damage when possible. However, given the surgical site often lies in soft tissue, exact identification of the ...
