Nasopharyngeal protein biomarkers of acute respiratory virus infection and methods of using same

The present disclosure provides methods for determining the presence or absence of and/or the etiology of an acute respiratory viral infection in a subject, as well as methods of treating the subject based on the determination, by measuring on a platform the expression levels of a pre-defined set of gene products.

Human Antibodies to Respiratory Syncytial Virus F Protein and Methods of Use Thereof

The present invention provides fully human antibodies that bind to respiratory syncytial virus F protein, compositions comprising the antibodies and methods of use. The antibodies of the invention are useful for preventing fusion of the virus with the cell membrane and preventing cell to cell spread of the virus, thereby providing a means of preventing the infection, or treating a patient suffering from the infection and ameliorating one or more symptoms or complications associated with the viral infection. The antibodies may also be useful for diagnosis of an infection by RSV.

COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR CHARACTERIZING MULTISPECIFIC ANTIGEN BINDING MOLECULES FROM SINGLE CELLS
20250123287 · 2025-04-17 ·

The present disclosure relates generally to compositions, methods, and systems for the characterization of antigen-binding molecules, e.g., multispecific T cell receptors, B cell receptors, antibodies, and antigen-binding fragments thereof, using single-cell immune profiling methodologies. The compositions, methods and systems described herein permit rapid, high-throughput identification and characterization of multispecific antigen binding molecules having desired properties.

ANTI-RESPIRATORY SYNCYTIAL VIRUS ANTIBODY AND RELATED USE THEREOF

The present disclosure relates to a novel anti-respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) monoclonal antibody, a method for preparing the antibody, and related applications thereof for immunoassay. The anti-RSV monoclonal antibody of the present disclosure exhibits high sensitivity and high specificity against RSV, and thus can be used for RSV detection at a nanoscale concentration on a chromatographic platform, and achieve more sensitive detection at a picoscale concentration in other platforms such as those for chemiluminescent assays.
