  • Patent number: 11957764
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a protein-type nanoparticle for multi-specific antibody delivery, a preparation method, and its application. The protein-type nanoparticle includes a polyester and a protein with a hydrophobic domain, and the hydrophobic domain of the protein is bound with the polyester through hydrophobic interactions. The protein is at least one of albumin, globulin and cell wall protein. The protein-type nanoparticle of the present disclosure has excellent stability and biocompatibility. The protein-type nanoparticle is used to prepare a multi-specific antibody delivery platform (?Fc-NP) by binding anti-IgG-Fc antibody or anti-IgG-Fc antibody fragment, which can stably, quickly and easily bind to multiple specific antibodies through antigen-antibody interaction and enhance the therapeutic effect of specific antibodies.

  • Publication number: 20160356723
    Abstract: The present invention is drawn toward luminogens and chemical compositions comprising a target recognition motif, a hydrophilic moiety, a linking moiety, and at least one luminogen. Additionally presented are methods of: assessing the conversion of a prodrug into its active form, assessing the therapeutic efficacy of a prodrug, detecting glutathione in a biological sample, detecting alkaline phosphatase in a sample, and conducting fluorescence imaging or magnetic resonance imaging with the use of luminogen-containing compositions.
