Monoclonal Antibodies as Therapeutic Agents: Advances and Challenges
Despite the major advances in conventional forms of treatment (i.e. surgical techniques, radiotherapy and chemotherapy) and improved survival rates, cancer is still the second leading cause of death in developing countries. One major limitation of cytotoxic drugs and radiation in the treatment of cancer patients is their inability to discriminate between malignant and normal tissues. This in tu...
متن کاملUnusually efficient tumor cell lysis by human effectors of antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity mediated by monoclonal antibodies.
Concentrations ranging between 0.01 and 10 pg per cell of certain monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) are shown to constitute 4-hr 50% lethal doses for tumor cells mixed with human effectors of antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). This efficient and rapid tumor cell lysis is achieved at low effector cell levels (effector:target ratios, less than or equal to 25:1) at which the effectors are...
متن کاملTherapeutic Applications of Monoclonal Antibodies in Multiple Sclerosis
Despite the various therapies available, the use of monoclonal antibodies is a highly specific approach that has only recently been of interest to researchers. The properties of antibodies have led to their use in the treatment of various diseases, including cancer, Alzheimer's disease, diabetes and multiple sclerosis (MS). MS, a chronic inflammatory disease, occurs commonly in young adults. Th...
متن کاملMonoclonal Antibodies
SUMMARY Monoclonal Antibodies are identical antibodies and Can be generated in ultimated amounts by countinuos cultures of single antibody- secreting cells. These cell lines are produced by cell fusion of normal lymphocytes to cells of a myeloma tumor cell line, which confers on the antibody producing hybrid cell, immortality and the ability grow as atumor in animals. monoclonal antibodies c...
متن کاملBruns syndrome caused by intraventricular tumor.
The Bruns syndrome is an unusual phenomenon, characterized by attacks of sudden and severe headache, vomiting and vertigo, triggered by abrupt movement of the head. The presumptive cause of the Bruns syndrome is a mobile deformable intraventricular lesion leading to an episodic obstructive hydrocephalus resulted from an intermittent or positional CSF obstruction with elevation of intracranial p...
