MONOCLONAL
ANTIBODY
2
 Antigen
• Any substance that induces the immune system to produce antibodies against it is
called an antigen. Any foreign materials , such as pathogens (bacteria and
viruses), chemicals, toxins, and pollens
• An antigen (Ag) is a molecule or molecular substance such as may be present on
the outside of a body, that can be bound by an antigen-specific antibody or B-cell
antigen receptor. The presence of antigens in the body normally triggers
an immune response.
• An epitope refers to the specific target against which an individual antibody
binds.
• When an antibody binds to a protein, it isn’t binding to the entire full-length
protein. Instead, it is binding to a to a segment of that protein known as an
epitope. In general, an epitope is approximately five or six amino acids in
length.

 B cells are formed from
multipotent hematopoietic stem
cells (HSCs) in the bone marrow.
 B cells are a type of lymphocyte that
are responsible for the humoral
immunity component of the adaptive
immune system. These white blood
cells produce antibodies, which play a
key part in immunity.
 Each B cell contains a single round
nucleus
 B Cells
4
 Antibody :
• It is specialized Glycoprotein produced from activated B cell (Plasma cell) in
response to an antigen that trigger its production.
• An antibody is a protein component of the immune system that circulates
in the blood, recognizes foreign substances like bacteria and viruses, and
neutralizes them. After exposure to a foreign substance, called an
antigen, antibodies continue to circulate in the blood, providing protection
against future exposures to that antigen.
• An antibody (Ab), also known as an immunoglobulin (Ig), it is a large, Y-shaped
protein used by the immune system to identify and neutralize foreign objects
such as pathogenic bacteria and viruses.

 Monoclonal Antibody
i. A class of highly specific antibodies produced by the single clone of
hybrid cell
ii. Produced by fusion a B cell secreting the desired antibody with a tumor
cell ( myeloma cell ) Capable of growing indefinitely
iii. Fused cell called Hybridoma
iv. Monoclonal antibodies all have identical antigen-binding sites
 Bind to the same epitope with same affinity
 Same antibody class
7
Polyclonal Monoclonal
Produced by Many B cell clones A single B cell clone
Bind to:
Multiple epitopes of all
antigens used in the
immunization
A single epitope of a
single antigen
Antibody class A mixture of different Ab
classes (isotopes)
All of single Ab class
Ag- binding sites: Different antigen-binding
site
All Abs have the same
antigen binding site
Cost Less expensive More expensive

• Types of monoclonal antibodies
 Naked Monoclonal Antibody :
Those without any drug or radioactive material attached to them.
 Marks the cells from immune system
 Attach to receptor - block binding of growth factor
E.g : 1) Trastuzumab - for advanced breast cancer
2) Rituximab : For B cell non Hodgkin lymphoma
3) Cetuximab : for metastatic colorectal cancer .
 Conjugated / Loaded monoclonal antibody
 Coupled with drug / toxins/ radioactive atoms
9
 Chemo-labeled antibodies:
MAbs Conjugated with chemo therapeutic agents
Eg: Brentuximab vedotin
Brentuximab vedotin attached to a chemo drug target the CD30 antigen ( present on
T and B cells) in treatment of Hodgkin lymphoma
 Immune-Toxins:
Conjugated with toxins
Eg : Denileukin diftitox
Used to treat some cancer (cutaneous T-cell lymphoma and many other)
Consist of IL-2 protein attaches to toxin (derived from the germ causing diphtheria)
IL-2 normally attached to cell that express the CD25 antigen and thus helps in
delivering the toxins to these cell
10
 Production of Monoclonal Antibodies.
 Production in animals
 Mouse ascites method
• Hybridoma cells injected in mouse
• Produce ascites (Excessive Abdominal fluid)
• Fluid contain high concentration of Abs
• No further concentration required
• Purification required
• Easy and inexpensive
11
 Production in call cultured ( In - vitro)
 Batch tissue culture method
• Grow Hybridoma cells in batch
• Purify MAbs from the culture media
• Fetal bovine serum commonly use
• Low concentration
• Semi permeable membrane based system
12
Production of Monoclonal Antibodies.
Step 1 – Immunization of Mouse
13
Step 2 – Screening of Mice For Antibody
Production
14
Step 3 – Isolation of antibody producing spleen cell
15
Step 4 – Production of Hybridoma Cell
16
Step 5 – Screening of Hybridomas
17
18
Step 6 – Culturing Hybridoma cell – Monoclones
Production
19
Step 7- Screening for Desired antibodies
20
Step 8 – Selection and culture of screened antibody
21
22
 Route of administration
Subcutaneously : ( Rituximab, Trastuzumab, adlimumab)
Intramuscularly : ( Palvizumab)
Intravenously : Preferred because of 100% Bioavailability
 Route of elimination of antibodies
Via uptake and catabolism
 Half-life
- Chimeric : 4-15 days
- Humanized 3-24 days
- Recombinant human : 11-24 days
23
How do monoclonal antibody drugs work?
 Flagging cancer cells.
 Triggering cell-membrane destruction
 Blocking cell growth.
 Preventing blood vessel growth
 Blocking immune system inhibitors.
 Directly attacking cancer cells
 Delivering chemotherapy

Application of Monoclonal Antibody
 Diagnostic tools in research and laboratory
Different technique in which MAbs are used include Western blot, ELISA,
radioimmune Assay ( RIA), Fluorescence microscopy
 Diagnostic application
MAbs is used to detect pregnancy as early as a week or two after conception
by reacting with human chorionic gonadotropin
 HIV diagnostic kits
 Rapid diagnosis of hepatitis, influenza, herpes
 Identification and characterization of tumor specific antigen
28
 Fight against bio terrorism
Inhalation anthrax ( Potent biological terrorism) is caused by breathing the bacterial
spores of bacillus anthracites.
Raxibacumab injection is used to treat infectious inhalational anthrax when
alternative therapies have failed.
