Explain why monoclonal antibody therapy is superior to serum therapy.
Serum therapy has many disadvantage over monoclonal antibody therapy. For example, serum therapy produce immediate side effects like fever & allergic reaction but monoclonal antibody has least side effects. Serum therapy causes serum sickness, and it is less efficient than monoclonal antibody therapy. Sometimes serum therapy fails to give the desired results, it require early diagnosis which takes lot of time to complete, it is high cost and more toxic compare to monoclonal antibody therapy. Monoclonal antibody therapy is much more specific and it can also be used against single pathogens.
Thus, we can say that monoclonal antibody therapy is superior to serum therapy.

Gleevec is an example of: Select one or more: O a. a monoclonal antibody b. a targeted therapy drug O c. gene therapy Xenotransplantation is: Select one or more: a. a type of transplantation that uses incompatible human organs b. the same thing as autografting c. a type of transplantation that uses animal organs
Pertuzumab is a recombinant monoclonal antibody that targets the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) protein. Pertuzumab can be used in the treatment of specific metastatic breast cancers in patients who have not received prior anti-HER2 therapy or chemotherapy for metastatic disease. The HER signaling pathway plays a role in the formation and growth of numerous cancers, and pertuzumab binds to the HER2 receptor to inhibit the ability of HER2 to interact with other HER family members on the...

Is cancer hormone therapy small molecule agents or monoclonal antibodies?
You are working on the protein α-catenin in C. elegans and have produced a monoclonal antibody that recognizes this protein. The normal protein identified by this antibody on a Western blot is 104kDa. You go on to identify a mutant that you think produces no protein at all (geneticist call such mutants “protein null” mutants) because Western blots performed using your antibody with protein from this mutant yield no signal. Later, however, another member of your research group sequences your...

You have identified a monoclonal antibody (mAb) that effectively neutralizes one strain of Ebola virus (Zaire), but is less effective on another strain of Ebola virus (Sudan). Describe a process that you could use to modify the variable regions of the mAb heavy and light chains, with the hope to create a mAb that effectively neutralizes both virus strains. Please explain the process step by step.
