Abstract: The present disclosure provides isolated monoclonal antibodies (e.g., humanized and human monoclonal antibodies), or antigen-binding fragments thereof, that specifically bind to human natural killer cell inhibitory receptor group 2A (NKG2A) protein with high affinity and exhibit therapeutically desirable functional properties, such as for the treatment of, for example, cancer. Immunoconjugates, bispecific molecules, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the anti-NKG2A antibodies of the invention are also provided. Nucleic acid molecules encoding the antibodies, expression vectors, host cells, and methods of treatment of, for example, cancer using the antibodies are further provided. Combination therapy, in which an anti-NKG2A antibody in the present disclosure is co-administered with at least one additional agent such as another antibody (e.g., anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, and/or anti-CTLA-4 antibodies), is also provided.

Abstract: Traditional food quality monitoring systems fail to monitor the variation of food quality in real-time scenarios. Existing machine learning approaches require dedicated data models for different classes of food items due to differences in characteristics of different food items. Also, to generate such data models, a lot of annotated data is required per food item, which are expensive. The disclosure herein generally relates to monitoring and shelf-life prediction of food items, and, more particularly, to system and method for real-time monitoring and shelf-life prediction of food items. The system generates a data model using a knowledge graph indicative of a hierarchical taxonomy for a plurality of categories of the plurality of food items, which in turn contains metadata representing similarities in physio-chemical degradation pattern of different classes of the food items. This data model serves as a generic data model for real-time shelf-life prediction of different food items.

Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to method and system for predicting shelf life of perishable food items. In supply chain management, current technology provides limited capability in providing relation between visual image of food item and a quality parameter value at different storage conditions. The system includes a quality parameter prediction module and a shelf life prediction module. The method obtains input data from user comprising a visual data and a storage data of each food item. The quality parameter prediction module determines a current quality parameter value of the food item from a look-up table. The shelf life prediction module predicts the shelf life of food item based on the current quality parameter value, a critical quality parameter value and the storage data. The look-up table comprising a plurality of weather zones are generated based on relationship dynamics between the visual image of food item and the quality parameter value.

Abstract: The present invention provides isolated monoclonal antibodies, particularly human antibodies, that bind to IP-10 with high affinity, inhibit the binding of IP-10 to its receptor, inhibit IP-10-induced calcium flux and inhibit IP-10-induced cell migration. Nucleic acid molecules encoding the antibodies of the invention, expression vectors, host cells and methods for expressing the antibodies of the invention are also provided. Immunoconjugates, bispecific molecules and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the antibodies of the invention are also provided. The invention also provides methods for inhibiting IP-10 activity using the antibodies of the invention, including methods for treating various inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.

Abstract: Provided herein are activatable anti-human CTLA-4 antibodies comprising a heavy chain comprising a VH domain and a light chain comprising a masking moiety (MM), a cleavable moiety (CM), and a VL domain. Such activatable anti-human CTLA-4 antibodies have CTLA-4 binding activity in the tumor microenvironment, where the masking moiety is removed by proteolytic cleavage of the cleavable moiety by tumor-specific proteases, but exhibit greatly reduced binding to CTLA-4 outside the tumor. In this way, the activatable anti-human CTLA-4 antibodies of the present invention retain anti-tumor activity while reducing the side effects associated with anti-CTLA-4 activity outside the tumor.
