54 results about "Isotype" patented technology

In immunology, the immunoglobulin (Ig) isotype (class) is encoded by the constant region segments of the immunoglobulin gene which form the Fc (Fragment crystallizable region) portion and the lower segment of the Fab (Fragment antigen-binding) portion of an antibody. The expression of a specific isotype determines the function of an antibody via the specific binding to Fc receptor molecules on different immune effector cells. Isotype expression reflects the maturation stage of a B cell. Naive B cells express IgM and IgD isotypes with unmutated variable genes, which are produced from the same initial transcript following alternative splicing. Expression of other antibody isotypes (IgD, IgM IgG1-4, IgA1-2, IgE) occurs via a process of class-switch recombination (CSR) after antigen exposure. Class-switching is mediated by the AID (activation-induced cytidine deaminase) enzyme and only occurs after the B cell binds an antigen through its B cell receptor, and is further activated through interaction with a T helper cell.

Monoclonal mouse antibodies against human estrogen receptor, human progesterone receptor, human ki-67, and human p53

Breast cancer is a serious type of cancer that affects many women each year, often leading to death. To choose the right treatment for breast cancer, studying biomarkers is crucial, and one way to do this is by using the immunohistochemical technique (IHC). Biomarkers like Estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), Ki67, and P53 play a crucial role in determining the prognosis, progression, and response to treatment of breast cancer. Specific monoclonal antibodies against these biomarkers were created by immunizing mice with peptides derived from these proteins. These antibodies were then tested for specificity using ELISA and IHC staining on normal and cancerous tissues, confirming their ability to recognize the receptors. Additionally, the antibodies were evaluated for isotype, affinity constant, and their ability to detect natural antigens in flow cytometry and western blot.
