The present disclosure relates to an antibody binding to CD22, a bispecific antibody including the same, a chimeric antigen receptor, an antibody-drug conjugate, and uses thereof. According to one aspect, effective anticancer effects can be provided even for patients who are refractory to CD19-targeted therapies. Further, when using CD22 CAR NK cells or bispecific CD22/CD19 CAR NK cells, significantly enhanced reduction of cancer cells can be achieved.

The present disclosure relates to a method for discovering cell surface antigens for novel antibodies. According to a screening method of an aspect, cell surface antigens that bind to novel antibodies may be accurately screened. Moreover, the method is effective in efficiently screening cell surface antigens for novel antibodies by using cells that bind well to the novel antibodies.

Provided are exosome-derived microRNA biomarkers isolated from duodenal-pancreatic fluid for diagnosing pancreatic cancer, and uses thereof. Particularly, provided are a microRNA biomarker for diagnosing pancreatic cancer, a composition for diagnosing pancreatic cancer using the same, and a method for providing diagnostic information using the same. The microRNAs described herein demonstrate excellent diagnostic specificity and sensitivity for pancreatic cancer, and thus can be usefully employed in a non-invasive manner for early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, as well as for predicting progression and treatment response of pancreatic cancer.

A fusion protein may include a Cas protein and a bacterial toxin. Such a fusion protein, a polypeptide thereof, and/or a CRISPR-Cas system including the fusion protein may allow effective base editing. Due to the small size of the polypeptide, the polypeptide can facilitate delivery through vectors. In addition, when indels are accordingly induced, indel efficiency can significantly increase, and for indel induction, the size of nucleotides where indels are formed can also increase, whereby effective utilization can be made for gene knock-out.

The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a free-standing single-crystal membrane having a perovskite structure, the method comprising: applying an oxygen-deficient perovskite sacrificial layer having an ACuO 2 structure (where A is at least one selected from the group consisting of calcium (Ca), strontium (Sr), and barium (Ba)) on a substrate; epitaxially growing a single-crystal membrane having a perovskite structure on the sacrificial layer; and selectively removing the sacrificial layer using an etchant, and provides a method for transferring a free-standing single-crystal membrane having a perovskite structure by using the method for manufacturing a free-standing single-crystal membrane having a perovskite structure.

An Akkermansia muciniphila AK32 (Accession No. KCTC 14172BP) strain. The Akkermansia muciniphila AK32 strain prevents or improves intestinal damage. A method for preventing, improving or treating intestinal damage, including administering to a subject an effective amount of the Akkermansia muciniphila AK32 strain or a culture thereof as an active ingredient.

Disclosed is a device for providing visual perceptual training including an output module and a controller that controls the output module such that the output module outputs an instruction message informing a trainee of a rule related to visual perceptual training, provides a training session for the visual perceptual training, and stores a result in the training session for evaluating cognitive ability of the trainee, wherein the controller may, in the training session, control the output module such that the output module sequentially displays visual objects, check a type of a response of the trainee, determine whether the checked response is correct according to the rule including the first condition and the second condition based on the attribute of the visual object, the display order of the visual object, and the type of the checked response, and output a feedback indicating that the checked response is correct.

Disclosed are a visualization method for assisting medical image diagnosis comprising: acquiring first intensity values of first voxels in a lung region during inspiration, segmented from a chest computed tomography (CT) image acquired during inspiration, as first coordinate values of the first voxels; acquiring differences between second intensity values of second voxels, registered into the first voxels as voxels in the lung region during expiration segmented from a chest CT image acquired during expiration, and the first intensity values as second coordinate values of the first voxels; and visualizing a distribution of the first voxels by mapping the first voxels based on the first coordinate values and the second coordinate values.

Provided is a method of screening for an autophagy modulator. According to the screening method of an aspect, the autophagy modulator can be accurately screened with only a single cell. In addition, screening can be performed without using fluorescent labeling, and thus cytotoxicity and photobleaching that occur when fluorescent labeling analysis methods are used can be prevented, and the limitation of having to monitor only fluorescently labeled markers can be improved.

Biomarkers useful for detecting resistance to platinum-based chemotherapeutic agents (e.g., cisplatin) administered as pre-chemotherapy (NAC) for solid tumors (e.g., muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC)). The biomarkers include glutathione-related genes, the expression levels of which can be used to determine the NAC resistance. The biomarkers are used in a method of determining chemotherapy resistance and in a method of treating a cancer in a subject.
