Abstract
Oil bodies (OBs) function as organelles that store lipids in plant seeds. An oil body (OB) is encased by a membrane composed of proteins (e.g., oleosins, caleosins, and steroleosins) and a phospholipid monolayer. The distinctive protein-phospholipid membrane architecture of OBs imparts exceptional stability even in extreme environments, thereby sparking increasing interest in their structure and properties. However, a comprehensive understanding of the structure-activity relationships determining the stability and properties of oil bodies requires a more profound exploration of the associated membrane proteins, an aspect that remains relatively unexplored. In this review, we aim to summarize and discuss the structural attributes, biological functions, and properties of OB membrane proteins. From a commercial perspective, an in-depth understanding of the structural and functional properties of OBs is important for the expansion of their applications by producing artificial oil bodies (AOB). Besides exploring their structural intricacies, we describe various methods that are used for purifying and isolating OB membrane proteins. These insights may provide a foundational framework for the practical utilization of OB membrane proteins in diverse applications within the realm of AOB technology, including biological and probiotic delivery, protein purification, enzyme immobilization, astringency detection, and antibody production.

JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY 2024; 61:385-396.

Abstract
Mycotoxins, a natural food contaminant, are secondary metabolites of fungi. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and ochratoxin A (OTA) are two major mycotoxins found in various food commodities. These mycotoxins are hepatotoxic, nephrotoxic, cytotoxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic, thus they are a public health concern and their monitoring in food commodities is necessary. There are several conventional techniques available for mycotoxin detection, such as HPLC, LCMS, and ELISA. However, extensive nature and huge cost allowances make it challenging to deploy these techniques for monitoring of mycotoxins in the large sample size. Therefore, a robust, responsive and high-throughput technique is required. Here, we aimed to develop a multiplexed Luminex suspension assay based on multi analyte profiling (xMAP) technology for the simultaneous detection of AFB1 and OTA in the black tea, which is found to be contaminated with these mycotoxins during the cultivation or processing steps. Limit of detection for AFB1 and OTA, was 0.06 ng/ml and 0.49 ng/ml, respectively without any cross-reactivity with other mycotoxins and this assay is suitable for simultaneous detection of AFB1 and OTA in the same sample. Collectively, based on the results, we suggest that the developed Luminex suspension assay is sensitive, accurate, rapid and suitable for high-throughput screening of multiple mycotoxins.

Abstract
The biopanning of target-specific phages is one of the most critical steps in the preparation of single-domain antibodies. In the traditional biopanning of haptens, the nonspecific binding of library phages to macromolecular proteins is one of the most challenging problems in preparing single-domain antibodies. In this research, Fe3O4@ENR-functionalized core-shell magnetic nanoparticles (FMNPs) were silylated and aminated by tetraethyl orthosilicate and (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane, and target enrofloxacin was coupled onto the surface by the carbodiimide method. The magnetic nanoparticles were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, particle size distribution, zeta potential, transmission electron microscopy observation, and indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). A biopanning strategy based on Fe3O4@ENR FMNPs was then established to solve the problem in the traditional solid-phase biopanning process. The results showed that a considerable number of enrofloxacin (ENR)-positive phages were screened by only one round of biopanning. Finally, two ENR-specific shark-derived single-domain genes were identified and validated by monoclonal phage ELISA, gene sequencing, and biolayer interferometry technology. Our study provides a new biopanning strategy based on Fe3O4@ENR FMNPs for efficiently providing phages specific to haptens.

Abstract
A Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) biosensor based on an inhibition immunoassay was developed for the detection of diclofenac (DCF) in aqueous solution. Due to the small size of DCF, an hapten-protein conjugate was produced by coupling DCF to bovine serum albumin (BSA). DCF-BSA conjugate formation was confirmed via MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The resulting conjugate was immobilized onto the surface of a sensor fabricated via e-beam deposition of a 2 nm chromium adhesion layer followed by a 50 nm gold layer onto precleaned BK7 glass slides. Immobilization onto the nano thin gold surface was accomplished by covalent amide linkage through a self-assembled monolayer. Samples were composed of a mixture of antibody at a fixed concentration and DCF at different known concentrations in deionized water, causing the inhibition of anti-DCF on the sensor. The DCF-BSA was obtained with a ratio of 3 DCF molecules per BSA. A calibration curve was performed using concentrations between 2 and 32 μg L-1. The curve was fitted using the Boltzmann equation, reaching a limit of detection (LOD) of 3.15 μg L-1 and limit of quantification (LOQ) of 10.52 μg L-1, the inter-day precision was calculated and an RSD value of 1.96% was obtained; and analysis time of 10 min. The developed biosensor is a preliminary approach to the detection of DCF in environmental water samples, and the first SPR biosensor developed for DCF detection using a hapten-protein conjugate.

Abstract
The correct detection and quantification of pollutants in water is key to regulating their presence in the environment. Biosensors offer several advantages, such as minimal sample preparation, short measurement times, high specificity and sensibility and low detection limits. The purpose of this review is to explore the different types of optical biosensors, focusing on their biological elements and their principle of operation, as well as recent applications in the detection of pollutants in water. According to our literature review, 33% of the publications used fluorescence-based biosensors, followed by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) with 28%. So far, SPR biosensors have achieved the best results in terms of detection limits. Although less common (22%), interferometers and resonators (4%) are also highly promising due to the low detection limits that can be reached using these techniques. In terms of biological recognition elements, 43% of the published works focused on antibodies due to their high affinity and stability, although they could be replaced with molecularly imprinted polymers. This review offers a unique compilation of the most recent work in the specific area of optical biosensing for water monitoring, focusing on both the biological element and the transducer used, as well as the type of target contaminant. Recent technological advances are discussed.

Abstract
Chemical and biological contaminants are of primary concern in ensuring seafood safety. Rapid detection of such contaminants is needed to keep us safe from being affected. For over three decades, immunoassay (IA) technology has been used for the detection of contaminants in seafood products. However, limitations inherent to antibody generation against small molecular targets that cannot elicit an immune response, along with the instability of antibodies under ambient conditions greatly limit their wider application for developing robust detection and monitoring tools, particularly for non-biomedical applications. As an alternative, aptamer-based biosensors (aptasensors) have emerged as a powerful yet robust analytical tool for the detection of a wide range of analytes. Due to the high specificity of aptamers in recognising targets ranging from small molecules to large proteins and even whole cells, these have been suggested to be viable molecular recognition elements (MREs) in the development of new diagnostic and biosensing tools for detecting a wide range of contaminants including heavy metals, antibiotics, pesticides, pathogens and biotoxins. In this review, we discuss the recent progress made in the field of aptasensors for detection of contaminants in seafood products with a view of effectively managing their potential human health hazards. A critical outlook is also provided to facilitate translation of aptasensors from academic laboratories to the mainstream seafood industry and consumer applications.

Abstract
Required routine monitoring of microcystins (MCs) and nodularins (NODs) in water samples, as posed by U.S. EPA Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule 4, demands cost-effective, reliable, and sensitive detection methods. To target as many MC and NOD variants as possible, we developed an indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with group-specific monoclonal antibodies for variant-independent detection of total MCs and NODs. In this ELISA method, the mice monoclonal antibodies presenting both high affinities and broad-spectrum recognition capabilities against MCs and NODs were self-produced by designing MC hapten-based multi-immunogens to minimize specificity for the particular variant. Their high affinities and variant-independent binding capabilities against MCs and NODs were validated by both wet lab and in silico methods. The developed ELISA method achieved a limit of detection of below 0.3 μg/L for 13 MC/NOD variants, well with the reported best cross-reactivities of 60-127% relative to MC-LR. As a case study, this ELISA method was used to map the variations of intracellular and extracellular total MCs/NODs in the Luoma Lake drinking water source, China, in July, 2020. Its capability to measure total MCs/NODs with high sensitivity and high throughput in a simple and affordable way would truly be a disruptive technology capable of changing our understanding of bloom/toxin dynamics and having obvious implications for monitoring efforts.

Abstract
Nowadays, various industries using nanomaterials are growing rapidly, and in particular, as the commercialization and use of nanomaterials increase in the cosmetic field, the possibility of exposure of nanomaterials to the skin of product producers and consumers is increasing. Due to the unique properties of nanomaterials with a very small size, they can act as hapten and induce immune responses and skin sensitization, so accurate identification of toxicity is required. Therefore, we selected silica nanomaterials used in various fields such as cosmetics and biomaterials and evaluated the skin sensitization potential step-by-step according to in-vitro and in-vivo alternative test methods. KeratinoSensTM cells of modified keratinocyte and THP-1 cells mimicking dendritic-cells were treated with silica nanoparticles, and their potential for skin sensitization and cytotoxicity were evaluated, respectively. We also confirmed the sensitizing ability of silica nanoparticles in the auricle-lymph nodes of BALB/C mice by in-vivo analysis. As a result, silica nanoparticles showed high protein binding and reactive oxygen species (ROS) mediated cytotoxicity, but no significant observation of skin sensitization indicators was observed. Although more studies are needed to elucidate the mechanism of skin sensitization by nanomaterials, the results of this study showed that silica nanoparticles did not induce skin sensitization.

Abstract
AbstractChlorpyrifos (CPF) is an extensively used organophosphate pesticide for crop protection. However, there are concerns of it contaminating the environment and human health with estimated three lakh deaths annually. Detection of CPF in blood samples holds significance to avoid severe health outcomes due to continuous exposure. The most common techniques for CPF detection are Gas chromatography (GC) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). However, these techniques might not be feasible at the community healthcare level due to high-cost instrumentation, time-consuming sample preparation protocol and skilled analysts. Therefore, rapid, effective and economical methods such as immunoassay would be imperative for CPF detection in biological samples. The vital step in immunoassay development is the design of a potent immunogen from non-immunogenic molecules. The molecular modelling protocol could assist in redesigning known CPF linkers and inserting them at different substitutable positions of CPF to get distinctive CPF derivatives. Molecular docking and binding free energy analysis can be used to identify the CPF derivatives having a better binding affinity with carrier protein compared to CPF. The top-ranked CPF derivatives based on docking score and binding energy could be ideal for synthesis and immunogen development. The present review will comprehend technological trends in immunoassay kits for detecting chlorpyrifos from biological samples.

Abstract
To augment the antitumor efficacy and minimize the significant side effects of chemotherapeutic drugs on health organs, a novel albumin-mimicking nanodrug, which is based on zwitterionic poly(glutamatyl lysine-co-cysteine) peptides scaffold, is developed to enhance pH-triggered tumor targeting via prolonging circulation time and accelerating cellular internalization. Results showed that the internalization of the nanodrug by MCF-7 cells is much faster than that by Doxil and even comparable to that by free doxorubicin (Dox) at tumor microenvironmental pH 6.7, whereas the internalization of the nanodrug is only 27.4 ± 7.6% of the Doxil by RAW-264.7 cells. Moreover, the significantly prolonged circulation time of the "stealthy" nanodrug was also comparable to that of the long circulating Doxil. As a result, the accumulation of the nanodrug in the tumor is much higher than that in the liver and kidney before the circulation half-life, which is significantly different from most other nanodrugs accumulated in the liver and kidney in this time scale. The tumor inhibition rate of the nanodrug was much higher than that of Doxil (93.2 ± 3.0% vs 54.2 ± 6.5%) after 18 day treatment, while the average bodyweight of the mice treated by the nanodrug was 26.9 ± 6.7% higher than that by Doxil. This indicated that the synergetic effect of long circulation time and fast cellular internalization of the nanodrug can significantly augment tumor targeting. This method might rejuvenate the traditional chemotherapeutic treatment.

Synthesis of a deuterated 6-AmHap internal standard for the determination of hapten density in a heroin vaccine drug product. J Labelled Comp Radiopharm 2020; 63:564-571. [PMID: 32876947 DOI: 10.1002/jlcr.3880] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2020] [Revised: 08/04/2020] [Accepted: 08/27/2020] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
A deuterated hapten was designed and synthesized that will be essential for a future study of residual hapten and stability of a hapten-protein conjugate. This hapten, 6-AmHap, was chosen for a heroin vaccine that is now slated for a Phase 1 clinical trial. A maleimide-thiol bioconjugation strategy was successfully applied to our heroin vaccine to connect the hapten 6-AmHap with an immunogenic carrier protein (tetanus toxoid, TT) through a trityl-protected 3-mercaptopropanamide linker. The antibodies induced by the vaccine have been found to have activity against several opioids, including heroin and its metabolites, and, importantly, leave alternate pain treatment medications such as methadone untouched. To the best of our knowledge, no other hapten for a heroin vaccine has been deuterated, yet this tool may prove to be of great importance in the study of residual hapten during product release and the long-term stability program of a hapten-protein conjugate as part of FDA regulatory requirements. Hydrocodone was the starting material for the synthesis of the deuterated 6-AmHap, with a stable amide at C6 and a 3-mercaptopropanamide linker attached at C3. The desired deuterated product was prepared as the disulfide, 3,3'-disulfanediylbis(N-((7S,7aR,12bS)-7-acetamido-3-[2 H3 ]methyl)-2,3,4,4a,5,6,7,7a-octahydro-1H-4,12-methanobenzofuro[3,2-e]isoquinolin-9-yl)propanamide), that could be easily reduced to form the needed hapten, N-((4aR,7S,7aR,12bS)-7-acetamido-3-[2 H3 ]methyl]-2,3,4,4a,5,6,7,7a-octahydro-1H-4,12-methanobenzofuro[3,2-e]isoquinolin-9-yl)-3-mercaptopropanamide.

Abstract
In bioengineering, scaffold proteins have been increasingly used to recruit molecules to parts of a cell, or to enhance the efficacy of biosynthetic or signalling pathways. For example, scaffolds can be used to make weak or non-immunogenic small molecules immunogenic by attaching them to the scaffold, in this role called carrier. Here, we present the dodecin from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (mtDod) as a new scaffold protein. MtDod is a homododecameric complex of spherical shape, high stability and robust assembly, which allows the attachment of cargo at its surface. We show that mtDod, either directly loaded with cargo or equipped with domains for non-covalent and covalent loading of cargo, can be produced recombinantly in high quantity and quality in Escherichia coli. Fusions of mtDod with proteins of up to four times the size of mtDod, e.g. with monomeric superfolder green fluorescent protein creating a 437 kDa large dodecamer, were successfully purified, showing mtDod's ability to function as recruitment hub. Further, mtDod equipped with SYNZIP and SpyCatcher domains for post-translational recruitment of cargo was prepared of which the mtDod/SpyCatcher system proved to be particularly useful. In a case study, we finally show that mtDod-peptide fusions allow producing antibodies against human heat shock proteins and the C-terminus of heat shock cognate 70 interacting protein (CHIP).

Abstract
Albumin mimics could be an attractive platform for nanodrug carriers through systematic administration because of high safety and plentiful properties to be adjusted for a high drug efficacy, such as pH-triggered targeting cellular uptake and drug release. In this work, negative-biased zwitterionic nanodrug carriers based on zwitterionic polypeptide chains that mimic albumin were prepared, which have an outermost layer of zwitterionic glutamic acid (E) and lysine (K) pairs with a small amount of aspartic acid (D) to adjust the overall ζ potential. On the other hand, doxorubicin (Dox) was encapsulated in a hydrophobic core by 11-maleimidoundecanoic acid covalently linked with additional cysteine (C) residues on the polypeptide. The results show that the negative-biased zwitterionic nanodrug carriers can sensitively enhance the cellular uptake in responding to a pH change from 7.4 to 6.7 without reversing the ζ potential to a positive charge, leading to accelerating the Dox release rate in a slightly acidic environment through the polypeptide secondary structure change. Moreover, the anionic nanodrug carrier can also be easily enzymatically digested by trypsin for quick drug release. In short, this negative-biased zwitterionic nanodrug delivery vector could be an ideal candidate for a safer tumor inhibition with a high efficacy than conventional synthetic polymer-based ones.

A new strategy for the preparation of antibody against natural glycoside: With astragaloside IV as an example. Fitoterapia 2020; 142:104488.

Abstract
A new strategy for the hapten design of natural glycoside and application for the preparation of antibody is reported in this work. With astragaloside IV (AGS-IV) as an example, C6"-CH2OH on a glucosyl group was selectively oxidized by 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) oxidation to C6"-COOH, which was subsequently condensed with -NH2 on bovine serum albumin to get artificial antigen. Then, the successful preparation of artificial antigen was verified by TCL, SDS-PAGE, UV, and MALDI-TOF-MS. Finally, rabbits were immunized with artificial antigen to obtain an antibody against AGS-IV. After tests of the titer, IC50, and cross-reactivity, the results showed that the antibody prepared by TEMPO oxidation in this work had higher specificity than that the antibody prepared by conventional sodium periodate (NaIO4) oxidation. The hapten, as a carboxylic acid derivative of AGS-IV, has better water solubility than AGS IV, which is more suitable for the synthesis of the hapten-carrier protein conjugate in aqueous phase, achieving another virtue of TEMPO oxidation over NaIO4 oxidation. This new strategy provides new ideas for the design of haptens of other natural glycosides, as well as the preparation of their antibodies.

Abstract
Moraea pallida Bak. (yellow tulp) poisoning is the most important plant cardiac glycoside toxicosis in South Africa. The toxic principle, a bufadienolide, is 1α, 2α-epoxyscillirosidine. The aim was to investigate the potential to develop a vaccine against epoxyscillirosidine. Epoxyscillirosidine, proscillaridin and bufalin, were successfully conjugated to hen ovalbumin (OVA), bovine serum albumin (BSA) and keyhole limpet haemocyanin (KLH). There was a low immune response following vaccination of adult male New Zealand White rabbits with epoxyscillirosidine-OVA (n = 3) and OVA (n = 3) using Freund's adjuvant in Trial (T) 1. The immune response improved significantly in T2 following doubling of the dose to 0.8 mg/rabbit and changing the adjuvant to Montanide. In T3, the rabbits (n = 15), allocated into 5 equal groups, vaccinated with proscillaridin-BSA, bufalin-BSA, epoxyscillirosidine-KLH, epoxyscillirosidine-BSA and BSA respectively, using Montanide adjuvant, developed antibodies against the administered immunogens, with epoxyscillirosidine-KLH inducing the highest immune response. Proscillaridin and bufalin antibodies cross-reacted with epoxyscillirosidine in an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The conjugation methodology will be adjusted in the future to target optimal conjugation efficiency. Additional vaccination will be conducted in search of neutralizing antibodies against the yellow tulp toxin. The cross-reactivity of proscillaridin and bufalin antibodies with epoxyscillirosidine could be studied in future to explore the potential to prevent yellow tulp poisoning.

Abstract
Lithospermic acid B (LSB), the major water-soluble ingredient of Salvia miltiorrhiza (Danshen), has been shown to be an active ingredient responsible for the therapeutic effects of this traditional Chinese herb used to treat cardiac disorders. This study aimed to develop an indirect competitive enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of LSB. Firstly, LSB was chemically conjugated to a modified oil-body protein, lysine-enriched caleosin, recombinantly expressed in Escherichia coli. Antibodies against LSB (Ab-LSB) were successfully generated by immunizing hens with artificial oil bodies constituted with the LSB-conjugated caleosin. Western blotting showed that Ab-LSB specifically recognized LSB, but not the carrier protein, lysine-enriched caleosin. To detect LSB via indirect competitive ELISA, LSB was conjugated with bovine serum albumin (LSB-BSA) and coated on a microplate. The binding between Ab-LSB and LSB-BSA on the microplate was competed dose-dependently in the presence of free LSB with a concentration ranging from 5 to 5 × 104 ng/mL. The IC50 value was approximately determined to be 120 ng/mL for LSB regardless of its complex with a metal ion of Na+, K+ or Mg2+.

Abstract
Intoxication by Moraea pallida Bak. (yellow tulp) in livestock is of great importance in South Africa, ranking top among all plant-induced cardiac glycoside toxicosis. The toxic principle, a bufadienolide, is 1α, 2α-epoxyscillirosidine. Treatment of poisoning is challenging and affected livestock often succumbs due to the stress of handling. Manipulating animals to resist poisoning is a potential management strategy. The goal of this study was to explore the potential to develop a vaccine against epoxyscillirosidine by raising antibodies against epoxyscillirosidine in sheep and to assess the neutralization ability of the antibodies in vitro. Epoxyscillirosidine was successfully conjugated to keyhole limpet haemocyanin (KLH) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) rendering them immunogenic. The sheep, vaccinated with epoxyscillirosidine-KLH conjugate (n = 4) and KLH (n = 2) with Montanide, developed antibodies as determined with an indirect enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Total immunoglobulins from sera of vaccinated and control sheep that were purified and concentrated using ammonium sulphate precipitation were 11,940 and 7850 μg, respectively. The in vitro neutralization assay using the methyl blue tetrazolium bromide (MTT) cell viability assay indicated no significant difference (p > 0.05) between anti-epoxyscillirosidine-KLH and KLH antibodies. Rather, the antibodies seemed to enhance the cytotoxicity of epoxyscillirosidine in H9c2 cells. Thus, it is necessary to develop improved vaccination methods to generate antibodies capable of neutralizing the functional group responsible for epoxyscillirosidine toxicity.

Abstract
Vaccines may offer a new treatment strategy for opioid use disorders and opioid-related overdoses. To speed translation, this study evaluates opioid conjugate vaccines containing components suitable for pharmaceutical manufacturing and compares analytical assays for conjugate characterization. Three oxycodone-based haptens (OXY) containing either PEGylated or tetraglycine [(Gly)4] linkers were conjugated to a keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) carrier protein via carbodiimide (EDAC) or maleimide chemistry. The EDAC-conjugated OXY(Gly)4-KLH was most effective in reducing oxycodone distribution to the brain in mice. Vaccine efficacy was T cell-dependent. The lead OXY hapten was conjugated to the KLH, tetanus toxoid, diphtheria cross-reactive material (CRM), as well as the E. coli-expressed CRM (EcoCRM) and nontoxic tetanus toxin heavy chain fragment C (rTTHc) carrier proteins. All vaccines induced early hapten-specific B cell expansion and showed equivalent efficacy against oxycodone in mice. However, some hapten-protein conjugates were easier to characterize for molecular weight and size. Finally, heroin vaccines formulated with either EcoCRM or KLH were equally effective in reducing heroin-induced antinociception and distribution to the brain of heroin and its metabolites in mice. This study identifies vaccine candidates and vaccine components for further development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The hypersensitivity reaction to penicillin is a public health problem. Immunological responses to penicillin and other beta-lactam antibiotics can be classified into immediate and non-immediate responses. The immediate hypersensitivity is mediated by IgE; however, the non-immediate sensitivity is facilitated by other isotypes of antibody or T lymphocytes. OBJECTIVE This research detected the non-IgE antibody value against penicillin in allergic and normal people. METHODS Thirty-eight samples from patients with positive or negative intradermal skin testing results of penicillin allergy were included in this study. The total antibody and IgM levels against penicillin G were defined by in-house ELISA test. RESULTS The results showed a significant (P< 0.05) elevation in total immunoglobulin and non-IgM anti-penicillin antibody of sensitive groups; however, the anti-penicillin IgM was significantly greater in non-sensitive peoples. CONCLUSIONS Although the sensitized people to penicillin cannot be certainly detected with the total antibody, specific IgG and IgM value against penicillin, these values are good indicators for prediction of immediate and late response of the immune system to penicillin.

Abstract
In the present study, molecular modeling and principle component analysis (PCA) were used to select appropriate haptens for group detection of triazine herbicides. Four new structures together with three reported triazine derivatives were chosen for the screening of immunizing and coating haptens. A total of 31 triazines coupled with a 3D-QSAR methodology were employed to investigate the relationship between antigen-antibody recognition and molecular structures, the results of which revealed that the antibodies may recognize triazines from the side of molecules with the distinguishing atom and a steric volume matching with the spatial structure of antibodies. Finally, a broad-specificity heterologous immunoassay was developed for determining 10 triazine herbicides in ginger, where the detection limits were 2.5-15.1 μg kg-1 and recoveries were 67.9-102.6%. This study may broaden insight into triazine-antibody interactions and benefit designing novel performance-enhanced antibodies. The developed immunoassay can be further used for triazine detection in other complicated matrices.

Abstract
Amarogentin (AG) is a naturally occurring secoiridoid glycoside produced mainly in the plant genera Swertia and Gentiana. Extracts of these plants have a long history of use in Japan as bitter stomachics because of their strong bitterness. Because the AG content directly reflects the potential activity of the extract, the quality control of these plant extracts through the quantitative analysis of AG is important. In the present study, we aimed to develop a quantitative analysis of AG using a monoclonal antibody (MAb) against AG (MAb 1E9) in the plant family Gentianaceae. Surprisingly, production of MAb 1E9 was successfully achieved by immunizing AG-bovine serum albumin (BSA) conjugates into mice although the number of AG bound to BSA was only one. The characterization of MAb 1E9 revealed that it shows high specificity to AG, enabling the development of an icELISA for the specific determination of AG. In addition, the detectable concentration of AG in the developed icELISA ranged from 1.95 to 62.5 ng mL-1 with a limit of detection of 1.28 ng mL-1, which is approximately 30-625 times higher in sensitivity compared with the conventional HPLC method. Validation analysis revealed that the icELISA using MAb 1E9 is precise (intra-assay variation <3.9%, inter-assay variation <8.8%) and accurate (recovery rates of spiked samples were between 91.0% and 106.4%). This method can be used for the quality control of plant extracts using AG as an index.

Abstract
Immunoassays are antibody-based analytical methods for quantitative/qualitative analysis. Since the principle of immunoassays is based on specific antigen-antibody reaction, the assays have been utilized worldwide for diagnosis, pharmacokinetic studies by drug monitoring, and the quality control of commercially available products. Berson and Yalow were the first to develop an immunoassay, known as radioimmunoassay (RIA), for detecting endogenous plasma insulin [1], a development for which Yalow was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1977. Even today, after half a century, immunoassays are widely utilized with some modifications from the originally proposed system, e.g., radioisotopes have been replaced with enzymes because of safety concerns regarding the use of radioactivity, which is referred to as enzyme immunoassay/enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In addition, progress has been made in ELISA with the recent advances in recombinant DNA technology, leading to increase in the range of antibodies, probes, and even systems. This review article describes ELISA and its applications for the detection of plant secondary metabolites.

Abstract
Macrophages are professional phagocytes at the front line of immune defenses against foreign bodies and microbial pathogens. Various bacteria, which are responsible for deadly diseases including tuberculosis and salmonellosis, are capable of hijacking this important immune cell type and thrive intracellularly, either in the cytoplasm or in specialized vacuoles. Tight regulation of cellular metabolism is critical in shaping the macrophage polarization states and immune functions. Lipids, besides being the bulk component of biological membranes, serve as energy sources as well as signaling molecules during infection and inflammation. With the advent of systems-scale analyses of genes, transcripts, proteins, and metabolites, in combination with classical biology, it is increasingly evident that macrophages undergo extensive lipid remodeling during activation and infection. Each bacterium species has evolved its own tactics to manipulate host metabolism toward its own advantage. Furthermore, modulation of host lipid metabolism affects disease susceptibility and outcome of infections, highlighting the critical roles of lipids in infectious diseases. Here, we will review the emerging roles of lipids in the complex host-pathogen relationship and discuss recent methodologies employed to probe these versatile metabolites during the infection process. An improved understanding of the lipid-centric nature of infections can lead to the identification of the Achilles' heel of the pathogens and host-directed targets for therapeutic interventions. Currently, lipid-moderating drugs are clinically available for a range of non-communicable diseases, which we anticipate can potentially be tapped into for various infections.

Abstract
The small heterobifunctional linker succinimidyl iodoacetate (SIA) was examined for the preparation of peptide–protein bioconjugates with predicable conjugation ratios. For many conjugation protocols, the protein is either treated with a reductant to cleave disulfide bonds or is reacted with thiolation chemicals, such as Traut’s reagent. Both approaches are difficult to control, need individual optimization and often lead to unsatisfactory results. In another popular approach, a heterobifunctional linker with a N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) and a maleimide functionality is applied to the protein. After the activation of some lysine ε-amino groups with the NHS ester functionality, a cysteine-containing peptide is attached to the activated carrier protein via maleimide. Particularly, the maleimide reaction leads to some unwanted byproducts or even cleavage of the linker. Many protocols end up with conjugates with unpredictable and irreproducible conjugation ratios. In addition, the maleimide-thiol addition product should be assumed immunogenic in vivo. To avoid these and other disadvantages of the maleimide approach, we examined the known linker succinimidyl iodoacetate (SIA) in more detail and developed two protocols, which lead to peptide–protein conjugates with predefined average conjugation ratios. This holds potential to eliminate tedious and expensive optimization steps for the synthesis of a bioconjugate of optimal composition.

Abstract
Numerous naturally occurring toxins can perturb biological systems when they invade susceptible cells. Coupling of pertinent targeting ligands to the active domains of such proteins provides a strategy for directing these to particular cellular populations implicated in disease. A novel approach described herein involved fusion of one mutated immunoglobulin G (IgG) binding moiety of staphylococcal protein A to the SNARE protease and translocation domain of botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT/A). This chimera could be monovalently coupled to IgG or via its Fc region to recombinant targeting ligands. The utility of the resulting conjugates is demonstrated by the delivery of a SNARE protease into a cell line expressing tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA) through coupling to anti-TrkA IgG or a fusion of Fc and nerve-growth factor. Thus, this is a versitile and innovative technology for conjugating toxins to diverse ligands for retargeted cell delivery of potential therapeutics.

Abstract
Linking lignin model compounds to carrier proteins is required either to raise antibodies to them or to structurally screen antibodies raised against lignins or models. This paper describes a flexible method to link phenolic compounds of interest to cationic bovine serum albumin (cBSA) without interfering with their important structural features. With the guaiacylglycerol-β-guaiacyl ether dimer, for example, the linking was accomplished in 89% yield with the number of dimers per carrier protein being as high as 50; NMR experiments on a 15N- and 13C-labeled conjugation product indicated that 13 dimers were added to the native lysine residues and the remainder (∼37) to the amine moieties on the ethylenediamine linkers added to BSA; ∼32% of the available primary amine groups on cBSA were therefore conjugated to the hapten. This loading is suitable for attempting to raise new antibodies to plant lignins and for screening.

The next-generation nicotine vaccine: a novel and potent hybrid nanoparticle-based nicotine vaccine. Biomaterials 2016; 106:228-39.

Abstract
Owing to the urgent need for more effective treatment against nicotine addiction, a hybrid nanoparticle-based nicotine vaccine (NanoNiccine) was developed in this study. NanoNiccine was composed of a poly(lactide-co-glycolide) acid (PLGA) core, keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) as an adjuvant protein enclosed within the PLGA core, a lipid layer, and nicotine haptens conjugated to the outer surface of the lipid layer. In contrast to the traditional nicotine vaccine, NanoNiccine is not a nicotine-protein conjugate vaccine. Instead, the nicotine hapten and protein are separately located in the nanostructure to minimize antibody production towards KLH. The cellular uptake study demonstrated that NanoNiccine was ideal for internalization and processing by dendritic cells (DCs). Mice immunized with NanoNiccine produced much lower IgG level against KLH as compared to that immunized with the traditional nicotine-KLH (Nic-KLH) vaccine. In addition, NanoNiccine achieved up to a 400% higher titer of anti-nicotine IgG than the positive control, Nic-KLH. Additionally, the Th1/Th2 index of NanoNiccine suggested that the immune response induced by NanoNiccine was antibody response dominant. Furthermore, NanoNiccine was found to be safe in mice.

Abstract
The immune system is an incredibly complex biological network that plays a significant role in almost all disease pathogenesis. With an increased understanding of how this vital system operates, there has been a great emphasis on leveraging, manipulating, and/or supplementing endogenous immunity to better prevent or treat different disease states. More recently, the advent of nanotechnology has ushered in a plethora of new nanoparticle-based platforms that can be used to improve existing immunomodulation modalities. As the ability to engineer at the nanoscale becomes increasingly sophisticated, nanoparticles can be finely tuned to effect the desired immune responses, leading to exciting new avenues for addressing pressing issues in public health. In this review, we give an overview of the different areas in which nanoparticle technology has been applied toward modulating the immune system and highlight the recent advances within each.

Abstract
Food contamination by veterinary drug residues is a worldwide public health concern and requires continuous monitoring. In this study, we developed a biotin-streptavidin-amplified ELISA (BA-ELISA) using a produced monoclonal antibody for detecting pirlimycin residues in beef muscle, milk, and honey. The IC50 value of the BA-ELISA was 1.6 ng/mL for pirlimycin in buffer, and the sensitivity was improved 3 times compared to traditional ELISAs. The optimized BA-ELISA can be used to quantitate trace amounts of pirlimycin residues in beef muscle, milk, and honey. This method had limits of detection (LODs) of 4.45 μg/kg in beef muscle, 1.65 μg/L in milk, and 2.75 μg/kg in honey. The average recovery of the BA-ELISA ranged from 78 to 97%, and the coefficient of variation ranged from 5.3 to 13.5%. The developed BA-ELISA method was validated using LC-MS/MS, and the BA-ELISA can be used for routine screening analysis of pirlimycin residues.

Abstract
The ability to prepare hapten-carrier conjugates reproducibly with consistent lot-to-lot hapten densities and protein yields is a critical component of hapten vaccine development. This entails the development of appropriate coupling chemistries that do not cause protein precipitation and the development of methods to quantify hapten density. Recently, extensive efforts have been devoted to design vaccines against drugs of abuse. We describe, herein, a method for conjugation of a morphine-like hapten (MorHap) to tetanus toxoid (TT), which involves conjugation of MorHap to the surface lysines of TT through the N-hydroxysuccinimide portion of a heterobifunctional linker and the subsequent attachment of the thiol on MorHap to the maleimide portion of the cross-linker. Methods are described for the analytical quantification of the hapten density of the conjugates using modified Ellman's test, trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) assay, and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS).

Abstract
Immunogen quality is one important factor that contributes to desirable antibody characteristics. Highly specific antibodies against miroestrol can be used to develop a quality control immunoassay for Pueraria candollei products. In this study, we investigated how various immunogen preparations affect antibody properties. The results show that immunogen prepared using the Mannich reaction provides antibodies with higher specificity and sensitivity against miroestrol than immunogen prepared with the periodate reaction. The results suggest the Mannich reaction maintains the original structure of miroestrol and generates useful antibodies for developing immunoassays.

Abstract
Microtiter plate enzyme linked immunoassay (ELISA) experiments in competitive format were performed utilizing polyclonal antibody for establishing a detection system for organophosphate pesticides. IC50 value of and limit of detection (LOD) value was determined by standard inhibition curve and value obtained were 0.05 μgmL(-1) and 0.001 μgmL(-1), respectively. Specificity of antibody was investigated with different organophosphate pesticides. Immunochromatographic assay (ICA) experiments were also designed in competitive format by making use of immunochromatographic strip which was assembly of three main components: conjugate pad, membrane and adsorbent pad. Membrane was coated with hapten-OVA conjugate (test line) and antirabbit IgG (control line). ICA experiments were performed by employing gold-labeled antibody as a detector reagent which was applied over conjugate pad. Visual detection limit obtained from ICA was 0.5 μgmL(-1). Major advantage of strip assay was rapid result, i.e., less than 10 min. which makes it suitable for onsite applications.
