Monoclonal Antibody for Patients with Covid-19
(Massachusetts Medical Society, 2021-03-25)
The ACTIV-3/TICO LY-CoV555 Study Group (Dec. 22)1 hypothesized that low penetration of the antibody into the infected lungs might explain the lack of benefit of bamlanivimab (LY-CoV555) in hospitalized patients with ...
Anti-Taenia solium monoclonal antibodies for the detection of parasite antigens in body fluids from patients with neurocysticercosis
(Elsevier, 2016)
Neurocysticercosis (NCC), an infection of the brain by Taenia solium (Ts) cysts, is the most common cause of adult-onset epilepsy in developing countries. Serological testing consists primarily of varying methods to detect ...
A protein-conjugate approach to develop a monoclonal antibody-based antigen detection test for the diagnosis of human brucellosis
(Public Library of Science, 2014)
Human brucellosis is most commonly diagnosed by serology based on agglutination of fixed Brucella abortus as antigen. Nucleic acid amplification techniques have not proven capable of reproducibly and sensitively demonstrating ...
Antitumor properties of an anti-idiotypic monoclonal antibody in relation to N-glycolyl-containing gangliosides
(Spandidos Publications, 2000-07)
We examined the antitumor effects of 1E10 monoclonal antibody, an anti-idiotypic IgG to an IgM monoclonal antibody, named P3, that reacts specifically with N-glycolyl-containing gangliosides and also recognizes antigens ...
Neutralizing monoclonal antibodies to fight HIV-1 : on the threshold of success
(2017)
Anti-human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (anti-HIV-1) neutralizing monoclonal antibodies are broadening the spectrum of pre- and post-exposure treatment against HIV-1. A better understanding of how these antibodies develop ...
Development of a lateral flow test for the rapid detection of Avibacterium paragallinarum in chickens suspected of having infectious coryza
(BioMed Central, 2018)
Background: Infectious coryza (IC) is an acute respiratory disease of growing chickens and layers caused by Avibacterium paragallinarum. The development of tools that allow rapid pathogen detection is necessary in order ...
Performance of a sandwich antigen-detection ELISA for the diagnosis of Porcine Taenia solium cysticercosis
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2019)
The pig is the natural intermediate host of Taenia solium, a parasite causing significant burden of disease in both humans and pigs. Porcine cysticercosis is traditionally detected via tongue palpation and slaughterhouse ...
Case 15-2012: Diplopia, headaches, and papilledema
(Massachusetts Medical Society, 2012)
Neurocysticercosis is endemic in most of the world, and it accounts for 2% of seizure cases in some areas of the United States.1 Extraparenchymal neurocysticercosis, discussed in the Case Record involving a patient with ...
