Significance Neutralizing antibodies are important for immunity against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and as therapeutics the prevention treatment of COVID-19. We identified high-affinity nanobodies SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain found that nanobody cocktails consisting two noncompeting were able to block ACE2 engagement with RBD variants present in human popu...

Abstract Background The widespread popularity of porcine circovirus type 2(PCV2) has seriously affected the healthy development pig industry and caused huge economic losses worldwide. A rapid reliable method is required for epidemiological investigation evaluating effect immunization. However, current methods PCV2 antibody detection are time-consuming or very expensive rarely meet requirements ...

Mycotoxins are the toxic secondary metabolites produced by fungi and they are a worldwide public health concern. A VHH antibody (or nanobody) is the smallest antigen binding entity and is produced by heavy chain only antibodies. Compared with conventional antibodies, VHH antibodies overcome many pitfalls typically encountered in clinical therapeutics and immunodiagnostics. Likewise, VHH antibod...

Nanobodies (Nbs) or single-domain antibodies are among the smallest and most stable binder scaffolds known. In vitro display is a powerful antibody discovery technique used worldwide. We describe the first adaptation of in vitro mRNA/cDNA display for the rapid, automatable discovery of Nbs against desired targets, and use it to discover the first ever reported nanobody against the human full-le...

Objective(s): Lung cancer is the main leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Angiogenesis is the main step in proliferation and spreading of tumor cells. Targeting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is an effective approach for inhibition of cancer angiogenesis. Nanobodies (NBs) are a novel class of antibodies derived from the camel. Unique characteristics of Nbs like their small size ...

Abstract Background and significance Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy shows promising potency for treating patients with hematological malignancies. However, follow-up data indicate that only 30% to 50% of these experience long-term disease control. In solid tumors, the B7-H3 transmembrane protein is an emerging target harbors in its ectodomain two distinct epitope motifs - IgC Ig...
