Membrane ceramides modulate the activation gating of the voltage-gated potassium channel KV1.3

In their recently published study, Dr. Florina Zakany and her colleagues investigated the effects of these lipids on KV1.3, a functionally relevant ion channel of immune cells.

Disrupting EGFR–HER2 Transactivation by Pertuzumab in HER2-Positive Cancer: Quantitative Analysis Reveals EGFR Signal Input as Potential Predictor of Therapeutic Outcome

Investigations on a cellular model system by László Ujlaky-Nagy, János Szöllősi and György Vereb may offer additional information on the expected outcome of pertuzumab therapy

Novel Transmission Electron Microscopic Method to Quantify Protein Clustering on the Cell Surface

The study of receptor distribution patterns is important for investigating receptor systems and characterizing them as potential therapeutic targets.

Universal CAR T cells targeted to HER2 with a biotin-trastuzumab soluble linker penetrate spheroids and large tumor xenografts that are inherently resistant to trastuzumab mediated ADCC

The results of the research conducted by Lőrinc Nagy, Marianna Mezősi-Csaplár, István Rebenku, György Vereb, and Árpád Szöőr help to describe more accurately the mechanisms of new types of gene-modified immune cell-based targeted cancer therapies.
