Expression of a humanized single-chain variable fragment antibody targeting chronic myeloid leukemia cells in Escherichia coli and its characterization
Abstract:Abstract. Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a malignant blood disease originating from hematopoietic stem cells. Drug resistance and tumor recurrence have become major problems for the treatment of this disease. Therefore, new therapeutic methods need to be developed. Antigens expressed on the surface of cancer cells are potential targets for antibody-mediated drug delivery. In our study, an anti-CML cell single-chain variable fragment (scFv) antibody has been produced and characterized because it is the first… Show more
