Illuminating a biologics development challenge: systematic characterization of CHO cell-derived hydrolases identified in monoclonal antibody formulations by Melanie Maier, Linus Weiß, Nikolas Zeh, Valerie Schmieder-Todtenhaupt, Alireza Dehghani, Marius Nicolaus Felix, Daniel Heinzelmann, Benjamin Lindner, Moritz Schmidt, Joey Studts, Patrick Schulz, Bernd Reisinger, Kerstin Otte, Matthias Franzreb, Daniel Lakatos, Simon Fischer

“…By means of a highly sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method, we investigated seven different mAb products, resulting in the identification of 12 potentially PS-degrading hydrolases, including the strongly PS-degrading lipoprotein lipase (LPL). Using an LPL knockout CHO host cell line, we were able to stably overexpress and purify the remaining candidate hydrolases through orthogonal affinity chromatography methods, enabling their detailed functional characterization. …”

Plasma amino acids spectrum as an important part of metabolomic pattern in patients with coronary artery disease and atrial fibrillation by I.O. Melnychuk, V.H. Lyzogub

“…Altered AA levels point to the depth of pathogenetic changes during AF paroxysm formation: disorders of AA metabolism with branched chain (isoleucine, leucine, valine), aromatic AA (phenylalanine, tyrosine), glutamine/glutamate, glycine/serine and glyci­ne/methionine metabolism. A strong reliable connection between plasma AA spectrum and gut microbiota metabolites (trimethylamine, trimethylamine-N-oxide, total amount of fecal short chain fatty acids) was detected.…”
