  2. Anti-SSA/Ro autoantibodies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-SSA/Ro_autoantibodies

    Immunofluorescence pattern of SS-A and SS-B antibodies. Produced using serum from a patient on HEp-20-10 cells with a FITC conjugate. Anti-SSA autoantibodies (anti–Sjögren's-syndrome-related antigen A autoantibodies, also called anti-Ro, or similar names including anti-SSA/Ro, anti-Ro/SSA, anti–SS-A/Ro, and anti-Ro/SS-A) are a type of anti-nuclear autoantibodies that are associated with ...

  3. Recombinant antibodies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recombinant_antibodies

    Recombinant antibodies have many advantages in both medical and research applications, which make them a popular subject of exploration and new production against specific targets. The most commonly used form is the single chain variable fragment (scFv), which has shown the most promising traits exploitable in human medicine and research. [2]

  4. Autoantibody - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autoantibody

    Antibody profiling is used for identifying persons from forensic samples. The technology can uniquely identify a person by analyzing the antibodies in body fluids. A unique, individual set of antibodies, called individual specific autoantibodies (ISA), is found in blood, serum, saliva, urine, semen, perspiration, tears, and body tissues, and ...

  5. Synthetic antibody - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_antibody

    Recombinant antibodies are monoclonal antibodies generated in vitro using synthetic genes. Recombinant antibody technology involves recovering the antibody genes from the source cells, amplifying and cloning the genes into an appropriate vector, introducing the vector into a host, and achieving expression of adequate amounts of functional antibody.

  6. Recombination-activating gene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recombination-activating_gene

    In the vertebrate immune system, each antibody is customized to attack one particular antigen (foreign proteins and carbohydrates) without attacking the body itself. The human genome has at most 30,000 genes, and yet it generates millions of different antibodies, which allows it to be able to respond to invasion from millions of different antigens.

  7. Hybridoma technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybridoma_technology

    Flow cytometry screening has been used for primary screening of a large number (~1000) of hybridoma clones recognizing the native form of the antigen on the cell surface. [4] In the flow cytometry-based screening, a mixture of antigen-negative cells and antigen-positive cells is used as the antigen to be tested for each hybridoma supernatant ...

  8. Blood compatibility testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_compatibility_testing

    Blood compatibility testing is routinely performed before a blood transfusion.The full compatibility testing process involves ABO and RhD (Rh factor) typing; screening for antibodies against other blood group systems; and crossmatching, which involves testing the recipient's blood plasma against the donor's red blood cells as a final check for incompatibility.

  9. Allotype (immunology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allotype_(immunology)

    Antibody allotypes came back to spotlight due to development and use of therapies based on monoclonal antibodies.These recombinant human glycoproteins and proteins are now well established in clinical practise, but sometimes leads to adverse effects such as generation of antitherapeutic antibodies that negates therapy or even cause severe reactions to the therapy.
