Abstract
Yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) is perfect supplement to mammalian immunoglobulin G in passive immune protection but with poor delivery stability. This work succeeded in pH-responsive oral delivery of IgY-Fab fragments with cellulose based multi-network composite hydrogels. Data displayed that the hydrogel 2 showed superior mechanical properties and load performance (encapsulation efficiency of 99.25% and loading capacity of 45.11 mg/100 mg). The stability of the released Fab was confirmed by HPLC with Fab purity up to 79.65% at the end of digestion. The FTIR spectra revealed the potential interactions between Fab and the hydrogel matrix of the formation of hydrogen bonds or electrostatic interactions between the groups of -OH, -CH2, and -COO-. The excellent rehydration of the hydrogels wouldn't be impacted by low-temperature freeze drying. In sum, this work is of great significance to the development of Fab-themed health-care food, intensive processing of poultry eggs and the economic construction of related industries.

Abstract
Since the discovery of antibodies by Emil Von Behring and Shibasaburo Kitasato during the 19th century, their potential for use as biotechnological reagents has been exploited in different fields, such as basic and applied research, diagnosis, and the treatment of multiple diseases. Antibodies are relatively easy to obtain from any species with an adaptive immune system, but birds are animals characterized by relatively easy care and maintenance. In addition, the antibodies they produce can be purified from the egg yolk, allowing a system for obtaining them without performing invasive practices, which favors the three “rs” of animal care in experimentation, i.e., replacing, reducing, and refining. In this work, we carry out a brief descriptive review of the most outstanding characteristics of so-called “IgY technology” and the use of IgY antibodies from birds for basic experimentation, diagnosis, and treatment of human beings and animals.

Abstract
The antigen binding fragment (Fab) is pepsin-digested product from egg yolk immunoglobulin (IgY), which shows lower immunogenicity and higher antibacterial activity. However, it limited the application of Fab due to the spontaneous adsorption and aggregation at the air-liquid interface. The present work is to investigate the effect of surfactants polysorbate 20 (PS20), poloxamer 188 (P188), and polyethylene glycol (PEG) on the aggregation stability of Fab of IgY. The results confirmed the positive role of surfactants in improving Fab stability. PS20 could effectively prevent the generation of Fab aggregates (DLS and light-obscuration analysis). It could also distinctly increase the internal hydrophobicity level, fortify the surface charge by altering the molecular conformational characteristics of Fab. The results of CLSM and surface tension demonstrated that P188 and PEG were co-adsorbed with Fab at the air-liquid interface and inhibited the formation of aggregation. PS20 competitively adsorbed in the gap between Fab molecules to inhibit the formation of aggregates. These findings would give an in-depth understanding of protein aggregation behavior influenced by surfactants and provide a theoretical basis for the development of functional food based on Fab active fragments.

Fab Fragment of Immunoglobulin Y Modulates NF-κB and MAPK Signaling through TLR4 and αVβ3 Integrin and Inhibits the Inflammatory Effect on R264.7 Macrophages. JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD CHEMISTRY 2021; 69:8747-8757.

Abstract
High-purity Fab fragment and immunoglobulin Y (IgY) were prepared to evaluate their anti-inflammatory activity in the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced Raw 264.7 macrophage system. Compared with IgY, the Fab fragment possessed a greater potency in inhibiting the inflammation by nitric oxide (NO)/inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and prostaglandin-E2 (PGE2)/cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) pathways. The Fab fragment attenuated the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-10 (IL-10) to 38.07 ± 1.86-48.39 ± 11.33 pg/mL (63.1-71.0% inhibition), 31.59 ± 3.91-38.08 ± 4.44 pg/mL (72.4-77.1% inhibition), and 20.62 ± 0.46-21.91 ± 0.65 pg/mL (50-53% inhibition), respectively. Additionally, the Fab fragment significantly inhibited the translocation of nuclear transcription factor-κB (NF-κB) p65 and the phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) proteins, including ERK1/2 (41.5/33.2%), JNK1/2 (44.2/39.6%), and p38 (42.2%). The Fab fragment could be internalized into cells, and the pretreatment of RAW 264.7 macrophages with the Fab fragment reduced the mRNA expression of the Toll-like receptor (TLR4, 32.7-44.4% inhibition) and αVβ3 integrin (76.1% inhibition). In conclusion, Fab fragments regulated the TLR4 and αVβ3 integrin-mediated inflammatory processes by blocking the NF-κB and MAPKs pathways in the LPS-induced RAW 264.7 macrophage system.

Antibody engineering-driven controllable chemiluminescence resonance energy transfer for immunoassay with tunable dynamic range. Anal Chim Acta 2021; 1152:338231. [PMID: 33648650 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2021.338231] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2020] [Revised: 12/10/2020] [Accepted: 01/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
The donor-acceptor distance is a critical factor for the occurrence of chemiluminescent resonance energy transfer (CRET). We herein evaluate the donor-acceptor distance and transfer efficiency of CRET immunoassays of a series of donors which contain different sized antibody fragments, intact monoclonal antibody (IgG), antigen binding fragment (Fab), and single chain fragment antibody (scFv). Core/multishell quantum dots were used as the acceptor in three CRET systems. IgG is the maximum antibody fragment, leading to the longest donor-acceptor distance and the lowest transfer efficiency. Donors with Fab and scFv show significantly decreased distance and increased transfer efficiency. These results suggest an inverse correlation between donor size and transfer efficiency and can be used to provide guidance for the construction of controllable CRET. By combining the controllable CRET with immunoassay, we further develop a tunable sulfamethazine analytical system. Three different sized donors based CRET immunoassay show a markedly different sensitivity and dynamic range. Such adjustable detection provides greater flexibility for contaminant detection in different foodstuffs with different residue limits. This work not only illustrates the effect of donor-acceptor distance on regulating the energy transfer efficiency of CRET system, but also provides a guideline for the construction of a tunable immunoassay.

J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci 2020; 1159:122400.

Abstract
We describe a simplified approach for purification and characterization of human 'IgG-Fc' fragment used widely as immunochemical tool and for therapeutic purposes. The 'Fc' fragment was purified from human IgG in a 3-stage column chromatography. The purified 'Fc' fragment appeared as a dimer glycoprotein with an apparent molecular mass of 52,981 Dalton (Ultraflex MALDI TOF/TOF). The Size-exclusion HPLC profile of the purified 'Fc' fragment of human IgG matched that of a commercially procured reference 'Fc' fragment material. The purity of the 'Fc' fragments was >99% by SDS-PAGE and size-exclusion HPLC. The results of Western blotting, immunoelectrophoresis, and mass spectrometry analysis indicate a high purity of the 'Fc' fragment. Peptide mass fingerprint analysis of the purified 'Fc' protein yielded peptides that partially match the known database sequences of FCG3B_HUMAN (Uniprot ID: O75015). This method of purification of the 'Fc' fragment is suitable for achieving high purity level of 'Fc' fragment protein. With this purification approach, the cost of the purified 'Fc' fragment of human IgG is significantly reduced as compared with the current market price of IgG-Fc fragment protein in international market. The purified 'IgG-Fc' fragment protein was found to be negative for major viral markers.

Abstract
The world is facing one of the major outbreaks of viral infection of the modern history, however, as vaccine development workflow is still tedious and can not control the infection spreading, researchers are turning to passive immunization as a good and quick alternative to treat and contain the spreading. Within passive immunization domain, raising specific immunoglobulin (Ig)Y against acute respiratory tract infection has been developing for more than 20 years. Far from being an obsolete chapter we will revise the IgY-technology as a new frontier for research and clinic. A wide range of IgY applications has been effectively confirmed in both human and animal health. The molecular particularities of IgY give them functional advantages recommending them as good candidates in this endeavor. Obtaining specific IgY is sustained by reliable and nature friendly methodology as an alternative for mammalian antibodies. The aria of application is continuously enlarging from bacterial and viral infections to tumor biology. Specific anti-viral IgY were previously tested in several designs, thus its worth pointing out that in the actual COVID-19 pandemic context, respiratory infections need an enlarged arsenal of therapeutic approaches and clearly the roles of IgY should be exploited in depth.
