Antibody anti human is to protect our body from different kind of dangerous viruses



Antibody treatment is a type of therapy that is used to treat certain types of cancer and immune disorders. Antibodies are proteins which are naturally formed by the body in response to a foreign substance, known as an antigen. Antibodies can also be grown outside of the patient’s body and injected into them to help aid the immune system to fight disease. These types of antibodies are typically called monoclonal antibodies because they are created to target one specific antigen.Herceptin and Av anti, two widely used cancer fighting drugs, are examples of monoclonal antibodies. Monoclonal antibodies can be generated for human use without mice by using in vitro techniques. MAbs manufactured using these methods do not suffer from the drawbacks related to the anti human antibody response. Animal protection groups fought for years to end production in mice because it causes intense suffering for the animals that includes severe abdominal pain, difficulty breathing and death.
