  • Patent number: 11926697
    Abstract: The present invention provides a fluorine-containing liquid crystal polymer of Formula (1). The present invention also discloses a fluorine-containing liquid crystal elastomer, which comprises a copolymer of a fluorine-containing liquid crystal polymer of Formula (1) with a near-infrared dye of Formula (2). The fluorine-containing liquid crystal elastomer of the present invention shrinks due to the photothermal conversion effect of the material under the irradiation of near-infrared light, and thus is widely applicable to the field of actuators. The fluorine-containing liquid crystal polymer of the present invention introduces fluorine-containing segments into the cross-linked network of the liquid crystal polymer, to improve the mechanical performance of the material, and greatly extend the service time of light-controlled actuators.

  • Publication number: 20230287139
    Abstract: Provided are an anti-HER2/PD1 bispecific antibody, preparation method, and antitumor application. Specifically, a single-chain variable fragment scFv and an immunoglobulin antibody IgG are connected by means of a peptide linker to obtain a bispecific antibody; the bispecific antibody can simultaneously target the tumor cell surface molecule HER2 antigen and T lymphocyte surface molecule PD-1. The results of experimentation show that the bispecific antibody provided is capable of inhibiting the proliferation of HER2-positive tumor cells while also blockading the binding of PD-1/PD-L1, releasing the suppressive state of T cells and performing an antitumor function.
