A thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) test looks for certain antibodies that attack the thyroid. The presence of TbAb in high levels may indicate that someone has an autoimmune condition. To conduct a ...

Ideally, the immune system will produce long-lasting antibodies recognizing that specific virus, thereby providing protection. But Scripps Research scientists have now discovered that for some HIV ...

Imprinting molecular memory on the surface of polymer nanoparticles creates artificial antibodies that can recognize and neutralize a toxic peptide in vivo. Like a hand in a glove, antibodies fit ...

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies are a critical component of the adaptive immune system, binding to and neutralizing pathogens and other foreign substances. Recent advances in molecular antibody ...

Different types of antibodies are produced by your immune system. These five antibodies help fight disease by detecting viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens (disease-causing microorganisms) and ...

Sjögren’s antibody testing is done using a blood sample. It checks antibody levels, including anti-SS-A (also called anti-Ro) and anti-SS-B (also called anti-La). Anti-SS-A and anti-SS-B are ...
