Article Abstract

Aim: To prepare and characterize mAb to Fc fragment of Ig fusion protein, and to establish sandwich ELISA for detecting Ig fusion proteins and affinity chromatography method for Ig fusion protein purification.

Methods: hBCMA-Ig was used as antigen to immune BALB/c mice. The lymphocyte hybridoma technique was used to establish hybridoma cell lines stably secreting anti-Fc mAb. ELISA was employed to detect the isotype, epitopes, and species specificity of mAbs. Western blot was used to assess the reactivity between anti-Fc mAbs and denatured Ig fusion protein. LAIR1-Ig fusion protein was purified through affinity column anti-Fc mAb cross-linked to Sepharose 4B.

Results: Seven hybridoma cell lines(FMUFc1-FMUFc7) were acquired. A sandwich ELISA was successfully established using FMUFc4 as coating mAb and FMUFc5 as enzyme-labeled mAb. FMUFc6 could be used for Western blot. LAIR1-Ig fusion protein was effectively purified through FMUFc5-Sepharose affinity chromatography column.

Conclusion: mAb against Fc fragment of Ig fusion protein has been prepared successfully, and methods to detect and purify Ig fusion protein are established. These mAbs provide useful tool for further application of Ig fusion protein.

Targeted protein degraders hold potential as therapeutic agents to target conventionally 'undruggable' proteins. Here, we develop a high-throughput screen, DEath FUSion Escaper (DEFUSE), to identify small-molecule protein degraders. By conjugating the protein of interest to a fast-acting triggerable death protein, this approach translates target protein degradation into a cell survival phenotype to illustrate the presence of degraders.

At present there is no metabolic characterization of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Pathognomonic of APL, PML::RARα fusion protein rewires metabolic pathways to feed anabolic tumor cell's growth. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and arsenic trioxide (ATO)-based therapies render APL the most curable subtype of AML, yet approximately 1% of cases are resistant and 5% relapse.

Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON), a mitochondrial disorder marked by central vision loss, exhibits incomplete penetrance and male predominance. Since there are no adequate models for understanding the rapid vision loss associated with LHON, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from LHON patients carrying the pathogenic m.3635G > A mutation and differentiated them into retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells.

Objective: Therapeutic potential of selective aggrecanase inhibition in osteoarthritis (OA) was previously demonstrated using a variant of endogenous tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-3 (TIMP-3); however, this relied on transgenic mice overexpressing TIMP-3. Here, we develop a translational approach for harnessing the aggrecanase-selective inhibitory activity of TIMP-3 using the latency associated peptide (LAP) technology.

Methods: We successfully produced and purified recombinant LAP-TIMP-3 fusion proteins and determined the pharmacokinetics of these proteins in vivo following systemic injection.

Infectious bursal disease (IBD), caused by the infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), significantly threatens global poultry health by inducing immunosuppression and causing economic losses. To enhance vaccination efficacy, we engineered a transgenic strain of Eimeria acervulina (Ea-2C3d) expressing a fusion protein composed of IBDV VP2 and three tandem C3d segments (3C3d), utilizing C3d's adjuvant properties to boost immune responses. The transgene was generated by integrating codon-optimized VP2 and 3C3d sequences into the E.
