Monoclonal Antibodies as an Antibacterial Approach Against Bacterial Pathogens

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2020
In the beginning of the 21st century, the frequency of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has reached an apex, where even 4th and 5th generation antibiotics are becoming useless in clinical settings.

Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Considerations for the Use of Monoclonal Antibodies in the Treatment of Bacterial Infections

open access: yesAntibodies, 2018
Antibiotic-resistant bacterial pathogens are increasingly implicated in hospital- and community-acquired infections. Recent advances in monoclonal antibody (mAb) production and engineering have led to renewed interest in the development of antibody-based

Anti-platelet factor 4/polyanion antibodies mediate a new mechanism of autoimmunity [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Antibodies against the platelet factor 4 (PF4) support bacterial host defence but in some cases may lead to heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT).

Immunoglobulin for Treating Bacterial Infections: One More Mechanism of Action

open access: yesAntibodies, 2019
The mechanisms underlying the effects of immunoglobulins on bacterial infections are thought to involve bacterial cell lysis via complement activation, phagocytosis via bacterial opsonization, toxin neutralization, and antibody-dependent cell-mediated ...

Antibodies directed against bacterial antigens in sera of Polish patients with primary biliary cholangitis [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
BackgroundPrimary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a cholestatic, autoimmune liver disease with the presence of characteristic autoantibodies. The aim of the work was to determine the level of antibodies directed against bacterial antigens: Chlamydia ...

Natural Catalytic Antibodies in Norm, Autoimmune, Viral, and Bacterial Diseases

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2010
In human patients with autoimmune, viral, and bacterial diseases, the generation of antibodies (Abs) to foreign antigens and/or autoantibodies to self-antigens usually occurs.

Removal of natural anti-αGal antibodies elicits protective immunity against Gram-negative bacterial infections

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) of bacterial infections occurs when blocking or inhibitory antibodies facilitate the infectivity of pathogens. In humans, antibodies involved in ADE of bacterial infections may include those naturally produced against

Increased levels of IgG antibodies against human HSP60 in patients with spondyloarthritis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) comprises a heterogeneous group of inflammatory diseases, with strong association to human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27. A triggering bacterial infection has been considered as the cause of SpA, and bacterial heat shock protein ...
