Compared with small molecules and conventionally selected antibodies, epitope-selective antibodies exhibit precise target selectivity that confers enhanced safety and pharmacodynamic properties.

Therapeutic antibodies have become one of the fastest-growing drug classes used to treat cancer and autoimmune diseases. To find the most promising antibody, biotechnology and pharmaceutical ...

Researchers have discovered an antibody able to neutralize all known variants of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, as well as distantly related SARS-like coronaviruses that infect other ...

An antigen is any substance that prompts your body to trigger an immune response against it. Antigens include allergens, bacteria and viruses. Antibodies are Y-shaped proteins that the body produces ...

In a study of 12 participants, researchers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) have demonstrated that a cocktail of three broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAb) successfully suppressed ...

Antibodies bind to specific antigens on pathogens. This means that only one type of antibody will bind to a matching antigen. For example, an antibody that can recognise an antigen on the ...
