Antibodies are Y-shaped proteins produced by the human body as part of a normal immune response to foreign molecules. Molecules from invading organisms – such as viruses, bacteria and other harmful organisms – are called “antigens” and prompt the body’s B-cells to make antibodies by the billions. Each antibody has two antigen-binding sites (one on each arm of the Y) and works to neutralize these invaders.
Antibody medicines are designed to emulate this natural disease-fighting process and, with the help of scientific innovation, do much, much more.
