The article titled "Immunoglobulins and Its Applications" provides a comprehensive overview of the structure, function, and therapeutic significance of immunoglobulins, also known as antibodies. These vital proteins, produced by plasma cells in response to immunogens, are essential components of the immune system, playing a critical role in recognizing and neutralizing pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. The article elaborates on the five primary classes of immunoglobulins (IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM), each distinguished by its unique structural and functional properties. It discusses the molecular composition of immunoglobulins, highlighting the significance of their variable and constant regions in antigen binding. The paper also explores the diverse immune functions mediated by these proteins, including precipitation, agglutination, and neutralization of antigens. Additionally, the article emphasizes the therapeutic applications of immunoglobulins, particularly in treating immune deficiencies and other diseases. Advances in monoclonal antibody technology have significantly expanded the utility of immunoglobulins in both research and medicine, leading to the development of innovative therapeutic approaches such as humanized monoclonal antibodies and bifunctional antibodies. This comprehensive analysis underscores the critical role of immunoglobulins in both natural immunity and therapeutic interventions.

Leishmaniases are zoonotic vector-borne diseases caused by a wide variety of Leishmania species with complex transmission cycles involving different reservoirs, potential new hosts and vectors. Similarly, to other eukaryotes, Leishmania release extracellular vesicles (LEVs) to play important initial interactions that are crucial to modulate the subsequent systemic immune response on the establishment of infection in humans and others hosts like dogs. Recent studies in endemic areas of Brazil concluded that canine infections were predominantly due to L. amazonensis and not restricted to L. infantum (syn. Leishmania chagasi). Under these premises, the diagnosis of leishmaniasis needs to be improved with the identification of current etiological agent and the histopathologic features, highlighting the differential diagnosis and the molecular components of LEVs. In this way, the dual aim of that study is to register collected observations of natural canine infections, enhancing the relevance of differential diagnosis in companion animals and inserting in vitro results in the field of LEVs that still research gaps to be filled to understand the mechanisms and biological aspects involving the parasite-host interactions. Therefore, improve these studies of Parasitology research is important for diagnostic, prognostic, treatment advances and continuing need for global prevention, control, elimination/eradication of these parasitic infections.

Tandem mass spectrometry (TMS) has emerged as a critical analytical tool in pharmaceutical sciences, playing a pivotal role in ensuring the rational use of medications. This article explores the applications of TMS across various stages of drug development, quality assurance, and patient care, highlighting its precision and reliability in advancing therapeutic efficacy. TMS facilitates the accurate identification and quantification of drug compounds, ensuring that pharmaceutical products meet high standards of purity and potency. By detecting even trace levels of impurities or contaminants, TMS strengthens the quality control processes critical to patient safety. In the realm of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, TMS enables detailed monitoring of drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME), allowing for a better understanding of drug behavior in the human body. It is also instrumental in therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), ensuring that medication levels remain within therapeutic windows, thus optimizing dosing regimens and minimizing adverse effects. Additionally, TMS supports personalized medicine approaches by assessing drug interactions and tailoring treatments to individual patients. Through its application in drug discovery, development, and therapeutic monitoring, TMS serves as an indispensable tool for fostering rational medication use, contributing to more effective, safe, and personalized pharmaceutical care.
