摘要:
The subject invention relates to a method for producing antibodies using as an immunogen a composition comprising soluble crosslinked DesAABB fibrin polymers and soluble non-crosslinked DesAABB fibrin polymers. The invention provides a method for producing fibrin-specific antibodies which, for the purposes of the present invention, are defined as antibodies that specifically bind to soluble crosslinked DesAABB fibrin polymers and soluble non-crosslinked DesAABB fibrin polymers, but which do not specifically bind to: (a) fibrinogen, (b) plasmin-derived fibrinogen degradation products, (c) DesAA fibrin monomers, (d) DesAA fibrin polymers, (e) DesAABB fibrin monomers, (f) crosslinked fibrinogen, (g) DesAA fibrin monomer-fibrinogen complex, and (h) plasmin-derived fibrin degradation products.

摘要:
A nanostructure comprises a MOX NP and a bidentate ligand on a surface of the MOX NP. A cancer recognition molecule is covalent coupled to the surface of the MOX NP via the bidentate ligand. A biocatalyst is also coupled to the surface of the MOX nanoparticle via the bidentate ligand. The cancer recognition molecule includes a structure configured to selectively recognize a corresponding antigen on a surface of a cancer cell and bind to the antigen. The biocatalyst is structured to selectively catalyze the oxidation of a light emitting compound to produce photons. The photons transform the MOX NPs into an excited state such that the MOX NPs generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the vicinity of the cancer cells in the excited state. The reactive oxygen species lyse or cause apoptosis in the cancer cells in situ. The biocatalyst includes luciferase and the light emitting compound includes luciferin.
