Developability Evaluation of Single-Domain Antibody-Chelator Conjugates for Diagnostic Radiotracers

This study demonstrates the implementation of a structured developability assessment strategy for sdAb conjugates. The approach integrates physicochemical and functional stability evaluations, supporting robust candidate selection, formulation development, and method optimization for this class of molecules.

Broadening SARS-CoV-2 Immunity by Combining ORFV and Protein-Based Vaccines

Emerging immune-evasive viral variants threaten the efficacy of current vaccines, underscoring the need for strategies that elicit broad and durable protection. Heterologous prime-boost regimens combining distinct vaccine platforms can enhance humoral and cellular immunity through complementary mechanisms.

Usage and limitations of neuroglial biomarkers NfL and GFAP in urine as non-invasive disease markers in multiple sclerosis

NfL and GFAP in blood are emerging as important biomarkers in MS. A urine-based assay could provide a simpler, non-invasive alternative; however, limited biomarker transfer into urine may pose a major challenge. This study aimed to evaluate the detectability and diagnostic potential of urinary and serum NfL and GFAP for distinguishing MS patients from healthy controls.

Heterologous ORFV–Ad26 vaccination broadens antibody breadth and amplifies cellular immunity against SARS-CoV-2 spike

The durability of vaccine-induced immunity is often limited by waning responses, antigenic drift, and anti-vector immunity, highlighting the need for innovative vaccination strategies. Heterologous prime–boost approaches can help overcome these barriers by exploiting the complementary strengths of distinct platforms.

Gap Junctional Communication Required for the Establishment of Long-Term Robust Ca2+ Oscillations Across Human Neuronal Spheroids and Extended 2D Cultures

Synchronized oscillatory fluctuations in intracellular calcium concentration across extended neuronal networks represent a functional indicator of connectivity and signal coordination. In this study, a model of human immature neurons (differentiated from LUHMES precursors) has been used to establish a robust protocol for generating reproducible intracellular Ca2+ oscillations in both two-dimensional monolayers and three-dimensional spheroids

Plug and Play Multi-Organ Chips: Integrated µGaskets for the Facile and Reversible Connection of Individual Organ-on-Chip Modules

Multi-organ-chip (MOC) models provide a plethora of auspicious opportunities to replace current in vitro and in vivo models for a more systemic investigation of human (patho-)physiology for drug development and personalized medicine.
