Flexible “ Hinge region ” | |G OF MONOCLONAL ERA O In 1890, Von Behring & Kitasato discovered antibodies. 1 1n1900, Ehrlich proposed the “ side-chain theory.” O In 1955, Jerne postulated “Natural selection theory.” which EM. Burnet expended. O In the same same time (1955) , Porter isolated Fragment of antigen binding (Fab) & Fragment crystalline (Fe) fim rabbit y- globulin, On 1964, Littlefield developed a way to isolate hybrid cells from 2 parent cell lines using the hypoxanthine-aminopterin= thymidine (HAT) selection media Ol 1975,Kohler and Milstein provided the most ‘outstanding proof of the clonal selection theory by fusion of normal and malignant cells i.e., Hybridoma Technology. In 1986-1990, the first monoclonal antibodies reached the tarket- Muromonab- CD3 ( produced by Milstein). O In 1988, Greg Winter et al pioneered the techniques to humanise monoclonal antibodies. O Paul Ehriich at the beginning of the 20th century theorized that a cell under threat grew additional side-chains to bind the toxin, and that these additional side chains broke off to become the antibodies that are circulated through the body. It was these antibodies that Ehrlich first described as the "magic bullets" in search of toxins In 2003, First Fully Human monoclonal antibody ~ Adalimumab = be elles Pinar Dee a A ae Re system and the discovery of the principle for production of monoclonal Geis ANTIBODIES | ed by immunizing an animal with the appropriate antigen- wide array of ‘pe stimulated to produce anti- protein antibodies. ‘obtained from immunized animal referred to as “Polyetonal Serum” MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES Monoclonal antibodies (mAb) are antibodies that are identical because they were produced by one type of immune cell, all clones of a single parent cell. & These are a class of highly specific antibodies produced by the clones ofa single hybrid cell. } They all have identical antigen- binding sites. 4 Bind to the same epitope with same affinity. 4 same antibody class ( isotope) ANTIBODIES feared orators MONOCLONAL ‘Multiple epitopes of all antigens used in the ————AAA levator ornate MONOCLONAL Less expensive ‘More expensive Limited supply Infinite supply Easily Rapidly produced a REATES MONC ANTIBODIES a Monoclonal antibodies (mAb) are directed against a specific epitope (antigen, antigenic determinant) .
