Tabhu: tools for antibody humanization
SUMMARY Antibodies are rapidly becoming essential tools in the clinical practice, given their ability to recognize their cognate antigens with high specificity and affinity, and a high yield at reasonable costs in model animals. Unfortunately, when administered to human patients, xenogeneic antibodies can elicit unwanted and dangerous immunogenic responses. Antibody humanization methods are des...
متن کاملAntibody Humanization Techniques
Antibodies are proteins with very important functions in the immune system. Thanks to their ability to recognize specific sequences from pathogens and other threats, antibodies can participate in the recognition and removal of foreign threats, such as virus and bacteria (Janeway et al.). Every human body is able to create millions of slightly different antibodies; every antibody has the ability...
متن کاملHumanization of an anti-p185HER2 antibody for human cancer therapy.
The murine monoclonal antibody mumAb4D5, directed against human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (p185HER2), specifically inhibits proliferation of human tumor cells overexpressing p185HER2. However, the efficacy of mumAb4D5 in human cancer therapy is likely to be limited by a human anti-mouse antibody response and lack of effector functions. A "humanized" antibody, humAb4D5-1, containing onl...
متن کاملHumanization and Characterization of an Anti-Ricin Neutralization Monoclonal Antibody
Ricin is regarded as a high terrorist risk for the public due to its high toxicity and ease of production. Currently, there is no therapeutic or vaccine available against ricin. D9, a murine monoclonal antibody developed previously in our laboratory, can strongly neutralize ricin and is therefore a good candidate for humanization. Humanization of D9 variable regions was achieved by a complement...
متن کاملStructural insights into humanization of anti-tissue factor antibody 10H10
Murine antibody 10H10 raised against human tissue factor is unique in that it blocks the signaling pathway, and thus inhibits angiogenesis and tumor growth without interfering with coagulation. As a potential therapeutic, the antibody was humanized in a two-step procedure. Antigen-binding loops were grafted onto selected human frameworks and the resulting chimeric antibody was subjected to affi...
