1.Genesis, development and application prospect of antibody library: a review.
Chinese Journal of Biotechnology 2011;27(5):690-697
Antibodies are immunoglobulins specifically introduced by immunity response of high animals, with the responsibility for recognising and cleaning out specific antigens. Antibody is not only a powerful weapon against pathogen invasion in the organism, but also a tool for specific molecular recognition used in basic scientific research. The diversity of antibody molecules resulted in the concept of antibody library; each individual animal is a natural antibody library. In the post-genome era, in order to fit various "omics", especially for proteomics requirement of high throughput technology, some gene engineering antibody libraries and antibody alternative libraries have been constructed based on phage display technology. Yet, more and more in vitro display systems such as ribosome display, mRNA display have been used for antibody library study, and that present more advantages than phage display. This mini review outlines the genesis, development and application prospect of antibody libraries according to the published reviews and research articles, and offers up to date development and application prospect of antibody library technology.

2.The Role of B Cells in Transplantation Rejection.
The Journal of the Korean Society for Transplantation 2018;32(1):1-6
B cells play a role in graft rejection via several mechanisms. Specifically, B cells produce high-affinity antibodies to alloantigens including allogeneic major histocompatibility complex (MHC) with the help of follicular helper T cells. B cells also function as antigen-presenting cells for alloreactive T cells, resulting in the activation of alloreactive T cells. Conversely, the frequency of regulatory B cells increases under inflammatory conditions and suppresses the rejection process. Here, the differential roles of the major B cell subpopulations (B-1, follicular B, marginal zone B, and regulatory B cells) involved in transplantation rejection are discussed together with their interaction with T cells.

Since the publication of a high-throughput DNA sequencing technology based on PCR reaction was carried out in oil emulsions in 2005, high-throughput DNA sequencing platforms have been evolved to a robust technology in sequencing genomes and diverse DNA libraries. Antibody libraries with vast numbers of members currently serve as a foundation of discovering novel antibody drugs, and high-throughput DNA sequencing technology makes it possible to rapidly identify functional antibody variants with desired properties. Herein we present a review of current applications of high-throughput DNA sequencing technology in the analysis of antibody library diversity, sequencing of CDR3 regions, identification of potent antibodies based on sequence frequency, discovery of functional genes, and combination with various display technologies, so as to provide an alternative approach of discovery and development of antibody drugs.
