Nanobody or VHH – What’s the difference?
In the realm of biotechnology and medicine, the terms nanobody and VHH are often used interchangeably to describe single-domain antibodies. These small-format versions of traditional antibodies have grown as cornerstones of scientific innovation from diagnostics to cell and gene therapies. But where do these names come from, and what meanings do they have for describing what makes them so pivotal in today’s research and therapeutic applications?

White Paper “Data-Driven Validation of Synthetic VHHs”
This white paper provides a data-driven validation of Isogenica’s synthetic VHH libraries, powered by Colibra® technology. Designed for biotech and pharmaceutical scientists, it demonstrates how these libraries enhance and accelerate drug discovery, particularly in oncology and immunotherapy. Download Extending half-lives of VHH antibodies
Because VHHs are small, they can be cleared quickly from the bloodstream. This can be a useful feature for some applications, but often a longer plasma half-life is desirable. DOWNLOADAdvantages of VHH in bi-specifics
To learn more about the application of VHHs in bi-specifics, we have condensed our expertise into a downloadable Application Note. DOWNLOADOptimizing CAR-T and T-cell antibody engagers: a role for VHH single domain antibodies
This whitepaper summarises the clinical and research landscape for CAR-T and T-cell engaging antibody therapies and show how single domain VHH antibodies can be applied to optimise the next generation of these important new therapeutic modalities. DOWNLOADIsogenica’s PD-L1 VHH as Functional Antagonists
PD-1 is an immune checkpoint protein expressed on the surface of multiple types of immune cells, including antigen-stimulated T-cells and tumour specific T-cells1. Interaction between PD-1 and its ligands (PD-L1 or PD-L2), is responsible for the regulation of T-cell activation, apoptosis, proliferation and cytokine production. DOWNLOADAnti-LRP5/6 VHH inhibits WNT pathway and prevents tumour growth
VHH are the variable domain of heavy chain only antibodies. They are small in size (~15 kD) and biophysically robust. With tunable half-lives, these antibodies are ideal for targeting inaccessible epitopes, achieving enhanced tissue penetration, multi-target binding and formatting for payload delivery… DOWNLOAD
