Monoclonal Antibody: An antibody with very specific and often unique binding specificity which is secreted by a biologically cloned line of plasmacytoma cells in the absence of other related antibodies with different binding specificities. Full article >>>
a monoclonal antibody that binds CD33, a cell-surface moleculeexpressed by the cancerous cells in acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) but not found on the normal stem cells needed to repopulate the bone marrow. Full article >>>
"Designed" monoclonal antibody therapy is already being employed in a number of diseases (including rheumatoid arthritis) and in some forms of cancer. Full article >>>
In a model system, we have applied an example of the second method to the analysis of a monoclonal antibodyepitope found in tissuetransglutaminase (tTG). Full article >>>
To demonstrate the molecular basis of the specificity of anti-neoepitopeantibodies, the Fv region of a monoclonal antibody specific for a neoepitope generated by the ADAMTS-4-mediated cleavage of aggrecan has been modelled and the binding of the ... Full article >>>
