Proteases are multi-functional enzymes that specialize in the hydrolysis of peptide-bonds and control broad biological processes including homeostasis allostasis. Moreover, dysregulated protease activity drives pathogenesis is a functional biomarker diseases such as cancer; therefore, ability to detect vivo may provide clinically relevant information for biomedical diagnostics. The goal this protocol create nanosensors probe by producing quantifiable signal urine. These consist two...

Abstract Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy has transformed cancer treatment, yet most patients do not derive clinical benefit and responders can acquire resistance to therapy. Noninvasive biomarkers are needed indicate early on-treatment response mechanisms. Here we developed I mmu N e S ensors for mon torinG c H eckpoint T herapy (INSIGHT), which comprises a library of mass-barcoded peptide substrates conjugated αPD1 antibodies, as therapeutic sensors. Following systemic...

<h3>Background</h3> Despite the curative potential of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy, only small subsets patients achieve tumor regression while many responders relapse and acquire resistance. Monitoring treatment response detecting onset resistance are critical for improving patient prognoses. Here we engineered ICB antibody-sensor conjugates known as ICB-Dx by coupling peptides sensing activity granzyme B (GzmB), a T cell cytotoxic protease, directly on αPD1 antibody to monitor...

We developed a modular approach for biochemical sensing using aptamer-based microparticles and swept-source OCT. Tuning the crosslinker composition of microparticle enabled varying physicochemical responses to target biochemical, ranging from degradation reversible swelling, which was spatiotemporally monitored in tissue-mimics
