Difference between Immune system and Monoclonal antibody

Immune system vs. Monoclonal antibody

The immune system is a host defense system comprising many biological structures and processes within an organism that protects against disease. Monoclonal antibodies (mAb or moAb) are antibodies that are made by identical immune cells that are all clones of a unique parent cell.

Similarities between Immune system and Monoclonal antibody

Immune system and Monoclonal antibody have 33 things in common (in Unionpedia): Amino acid, Anaphylaxis, Antibody, Antigen, Apoptosis, Asthma, Autoimmune disease, Élie Metchnikoff, B cell, Cancer, Cancer immunotherapy, Cytokine, Epitope, Hormone, Immunogenicity, Immunoglobulin E, Immunotherapy, Infection, Ion, Lymphocyte, Medicine, Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, Paul Ehrlich, PH, Plasma cell, Protease, Rheumatoid arthritis, T cell, Toxin, Transplant rejection, ..., Tumor necrosis factor alpha, Virus, White blood cell.
