Recognition of specific antigen through the B-cell receptor (BCR) stimulates the activation of B cells, which ultimately results in the production of high-affinity antibodies and the provision of ...

New research suggests that blood group B may be associated with slower aging, although not without risks for these people.

The variable region confers an antibody's antigen-binding specificity ... on the surface of immune cells such as leukocytes (white blood cells), macrophages, and natural killer cells.

etc.). Should a woman present with anti-D antibodies, the clinician will be prospectively prepared with a review of blood antigens, antibody production, and current fetal surveillance techniques.

The specified antibodies and complement were selected ... All agglutination tests using blood cells as antigen were recorded after four hours at 37°C. and again after eighteen hours at 20 ...

In mid-2024, the patient underwent a kidney transplant. Though he was relatively young for a transplant, that’s not where he ...

Researchers explore the cellular and molecular adaptations associated with human secondary lymphoid tissue in adults during ...

have designed a synthetic compound (antigen) that can latch on to a protein in blood and hitchhike a ride to the lymph node, where it can boost the production of antibodies against cancer cells ...

Antibodies bind to specific antigens on pathogens. This means that only one type of antibody will bind to a matching antigen. Scientists discovered that we could make antibodies to bind to ...

Scientists create monoclonal antibodies by cloning a single antibody-producing cell line. In contrast to polyclonal antibodies, monoclonals are highly specific to an antigen. By fusing myeloma cells ...
