Vertebrates with a defined immune system, such as humans, have an immune response consisting of an innate and adaptive response, also known as a specific response. The specific response is tailored to ...

A research team led by a Duke professor recently developed a novel computational model to predict antibody structures, a significant breakthrough for disease prevention efforts. A study published in ...

Antibodies, also known as immunoglobulins, are specialized proteins produced by the immune system to identify and neutralize foreign invaders, such as viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens. They are ...

Researchers at the University of Southampton have gained unprecedented new insight into the key properties of an antibody needed to fight off cancer. The interdisciplinary study, published in Science ...

Antibodies are immune proteins that our bodies produce to help fight off infection. Where they recognize and bind a pathogen — and how — can give important clues to the microbe’s vulnerabilities. Fred ...

MOG antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is a rare autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. The blood of patients contains antibodies against myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG), a ...

Researchers have analyzed the antibody Immunoglobulin M in rainbow trout to shed some light on why these proteins may have evolved over time. Antibodies -- proteins that are produced by our immune ...

Researchers at Texas Biologics at The University of Texas at Austin recently made a discovery that they believe could ...
