How Does It Work? | Peptibodies
#Research has explored the ways to extend the half-life of peptide drugs. One innovative way to achieve this is by fusing #therapeutic peptides to the Fc region of an antibody to create what is known as a peptibody. When the peptibody is naturally taken up by cells it binds to an Fc (antibody) receptor within …Read More >
PD-1 Blockade Protein in 4th Generation Armored CAR-T Cells Enhances Cytotoxicity Effect with in vitro Re-challenge System
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells are genetically engineered T cells that express a surface receptor to recognize tumor-associated antigens (TAA). CAR-T cell therapy have demonstrated remarkable success with hematological malignancies. However, limited headway has been made towards solid tumor, due to various challenges, including recognition of tumor-specific antigen trafficking and penetration, localization and survival within …Read More >

Developing a panel of orthotopic syngeneic tumor models for IO drug discovery
The efficacy of immuno-oncology therapies needs to be evaluated in animal models with functional immune systems. Syngeneic tumor models are established by inoculating mouse cancer cell lines into immunocompetent mice with the same genetic background. The host mice have complete immune activity and show histocompatibility with homograft tumor tissues, which can maximize the simulation of …Read More >
Tumor evolution selectively inactivates the core microRNA machinery for immune evasion
Cancer cells acquire genetic heterogeneity to escape from immune surveillance during tumor evolution, but a systematic approach to distinguish driver from passenger mutations is lacking. Here we investigate the impact of different immune pressure on tumor clonal dynamics and immune evasion mechanism, by combining massive parallel sequencing of immune edited tumors and CRISPR library screens …Read More >
