Species-Specific Therapeutic Antibody Development
Therapeutic antibody application in animals often requires consideration of species specificity, as the immune systems of different species respond uniquely to antigenic structures. The use of heterologous antibodies may trigger adverse reactions in the host immune system. To ensure that therapeutic antibodies exhibit both enhanced efficacy and sufficient safety when administered in vivo, BioVenic provides species-specific therapeutic antibody development services, aiming to meet the specific research and therapeutic requirements of diverse animal species.
Antibody Caninization and Felinization
The administration of heterologous therapeutic antibodies to animals may lead to significant immune reactions, such as the production of anti-mouse antibodies when murine monoclonal antibodies are introduced into canines or felines. This immune response can impact the safety and therapeutic efficacy of the treatment. BioVenic offers antibody caninization and felinization services, employing techniques like chimeric antibody technology or CDR grafting. By transforming the majority of the murine antibody sequence into sequences of canine or feline origin, we aim to minimize the immunogenicity of the therapeutic antibodies while maintaining their affinity and specificity.
| Services | Description | Procedures |
|---|---|---|
| Chimeric Antibody Technology | Combining murine variable regions with canine or feline constant regions to generate new chimeric antibodies while retaining target binding specificity. |
|
| CDR Grafting | Transferring the complementarity-determining region (CDR) of murine to the framework region (FR) of the canine or feline antibody. |
|
- Antibody Affinity Assays
BioVenic offers antibody affinity assay services aimed at assessing the binding characteristics of antibodies following caninization or felinization when interacting with antigens. We employ a range of techniques to comprehensively examine the binding affinity and kinetics of the antibody-antigen complex, ensuring the suitability of the antibody for animal therapy. This service is designed to assist you in gaining a thorough understanding of the performance of therapeutic antibodies, providing reliable data support for further development and application.

| Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) | Biological Layer Interferometry (BLI) |
Fully Canine and Feline Antibody Development
The residual murine components portion of hybrid antibodies may still be recognized as foreign, leading to decreased efficacy. Drawing from extensive experience in veterinary therapeutic antibody research, BioVenic has established a fully canine and feline antibody development platform to mitigate the risk of inducing immune responses in companion animals.
| Platforms | Description | Advantages | Limitations |
|---|---|---|---|
| Transgenic Mice | Introducing canine or feline antibody DNA into the progenitor cells of mice, allowing mice to naturally generate complete canine or feline therapeutic antibodies in vivo. |
|
|
| Phage Display | Utilizing phage display libraries derived from complete canine or feline sources, comprising billions of natural antibody variants. This approach enables the selection of target-specific antibodies for antigens without the necessity of immunizing animals. |
|
|
| Single B Cell | Single B cell technology isolates, cultures, and screens individual B cells directly after animal immunization, effectively identifies and selects the B cells that produce the desired antibody, and performs single-cell antibody sequencing to obtain the target antibody sequence. |
