| monoclonal antibodies |
Manufactured antibody proteins, types of which originate in laboratory animals (eg, mice) or humans. When injected into the body, they are able to recognize antigens for various medical purposes. Monoclonal antibodies can locate and attach to cancer cells with specific antigens, either to identify them for diagnostic purposes or to kill them in therapy. They may be used alone or to deliver radiation, chemotherapy, or other biological therapies more directly to a tumor.

| monoclonal antibody |
(mAB) A cell produced by the fusion of an antibody-producing cell (such as a B-lymphocyte) with an immortal cancer cell. This process is accomplished in a laboratory and produces a hybrid (hybridoma) that expresses properties of both cells. Laboratory processes are used to clone (make large numbers of) these cells. . Since the cells are all identical and are produced by cloning one specific cell in great numbers, they are called "monoclonal". ...
