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

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.

ri}ANTIBODIES
e growing knowledge of antibody gene structure and regulation has
possible what Cesar Milstein, one of the inventors of monoclonal
body technology, has called ‘man-made antibodies.” It is now possible
“design and construct genes that encode immunoglobulin molecules in
hich the variable regions come from one species and the constant regions
from another.
‘New genes have been created that link nucleotide sequences coding
antibody proteins with sequences that encode antibody variable regions
for particular antigens.
1 Finally, by replacement of the immunoglobulin loci of one species with
at of another, animals of one species have been endowed with the capacity
‘fespond to immunization by producing antibodies encoded by the donor's
transplanted Ig ¢neric and Hybrid Monoclonal Antibodies for
