Therapeutic proteins are exposed to numerous stresses during their manufacture, shipping, storage and administration to patients, causing them to aggregate and form particles through a variety of different mechanisms. These varied mechanisms generate...
Despite the importance of amyloid formation in disease pathology, the understanding of the primary structure?activity relationship for amyloid-forming peptides remains elusive. Here we use a new neural-network based method of analysis: the classifyin...
Current technologies for monitoring the subvisible particles that may be generated during fill-finish operations for protein formulations are cumbersome. Measurement times are generally too long for real-time analysis, and the high protein concentrat...
Intrinsically disordered proteins play vital roles in biology, and their dysfunction contributes to many major disease states. These proteins remain challenging targets for rational ligand discovery or drug design because they are highly dynamic and ...

Infliximab is a monoclonal antibody widely used for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. Over the past few years, many studies have assessed that monoclonal antibodies are prone to aggregation under stress conditions. The aim of this study was to ...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia in the elderly. β-Amyloid (Aβ) has been proposed to play a role in the pathogenesis of AD. Deposits of insoluble Aβ are found in the brains of patients with AD and are one of the pathologi...

Protein aggregation is critical to various biological and pathological processes. Besides, it is also an important property in biotherapeutic development. However, experimental methods to profile protein aggregation are costly and labor-intensive, dr...
Machine learning has been recently used to predict therapeutic antibody aggregation rates and viscosity at high concentrations (150 mg/ml). These works focused on commercially available antibodies, which may have been optimized for stability. In this...
