A substance that is produced by the immune system in response to specific antigens, thereby helping the body fight infection and foreign substances
A soluble protein molecule produced and secreted by B cells in response to an antigen, which is capable of binding to that specific antigen
a large Y shaped protein molecule made by B-cells of the immune system which very selectively binds to other specific protein molecules called antigens Specific antibodies combine with and inactivate specific viruses, while other specific antibodies mark invading bacteria and cancer cells for destruction by other cells of the immune system
Protein produced by humans and higher animals in response to the presence of another protein, termed an antigen The interaction of the antigen and the antibody can cause certain human health problems, like allergies or autoimmune diseases
An antibody is a protein (also called an immunoglobulin) that is manufactured by lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) to neutralize an antigen or foreign protein Bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms commonly contain many antigens, as do pollens, dust mites, molds, foods, and other substances Although many types of antibodies are protective, inappropriate or excessive formation of antibodies may lead to illness When the body forms a type of antibody called IgE (immunoglobulin E), allergic rhinitis, asthma or eczema may result when the patient is again exposed to the substance which caused IgE antibody formation (allergen)
Antibodies are substances which a person's or an animal's body produces in their blood in order to destroy substances which carry disease. antibodies a substance produced by your body to fight disease. Molecule in the immune system that circulates in blood and lymph in response to invasion by an antigen. Antibodies are globulins formed in lymphoid tissues by B cells, whose receptors are specialized to bind to a specific antigen. These receptors are copied as antibodies that attack the target antigens by binding to them, either neutralizing them or triggering a complement reaction. Antibodies have widely varying binding sites, providing protection from a wide range of infectious agents and toxic substances. Antibodies derived from the blood serum of infected people or animals are often given in an antiserum for quick immunization against fast-acting toxins or microbes. In 1975 César Milstein and colleagues developed a process for producing specific antibodies in virtually limitless amounts; these monoclonal antibodies can deliver radiation or drugs directly to specific antigens. See also antitoxin; reticuloendothelial system
Normal blood serum apparently contains variousantibodies, and the introduction of toxins or of foreign cells also results in the development of their specific antibodies
