RE: Nanobodies – Production, Advantages, and Use

in #steemstem4 years ago

Thanks for this. It seems clear (from your post) that those nanobodies (I have never heard that term before today) can be used in mouse, after being extracted from llamas or dromedaries. However, I can imagine we are far from being able to use them for humans, keeping in mind a path to cure cancer. Do you have some information on how far we are on this journey?

Sort:  

Last year one has been approved by the FDA against a bloodclotting disorder and there's one being worked on against cancer in the EU, supposed to be ready summer 2021 (although with the ongoing pandemic, that may be delayed).

Thanks for the information (and the links => some readings for the next few days).
