🔊 Check out the latest preprint from David Butler & team: development of an #intrabody collection that targets a-Synuclein, a key protein that accumulates in Parkinson's disease. Efficacy data were generated using #organoids from PD patient stem cell lines in vitro as well as with two in vivo models.

Engineered Nanobodies With Programmable Target Antigen Proteolysis (Ptap) Fusions Regulate Intracellular Alpha-synuclein in Vitro and in Vivo

Alpha-synuclein (αSyn) aggregation and the formation of Lewy pathology (LP) is a foundational pathophysiological phenomenon in synucleinopathies. Delivering therapeutic single-chain and single-domain antibodies that bind pathogenic targets can disrupt intracellular aggregation. The fusion of anti...
