antibodies, plural;
  1. A blood protein produced in response to and counteracting a specific antigen. Antibodies combine chemically with substances that the body recognizes as alien, such as bacteria, viruses, and foreign substances in the blood

  1. (antibody) any of a large variety of proteins normally present in the body or produced in response to an antigen which it neutralizes, thus producing an immune response
  2. Antibodies (also known as immunoglobulins, abbreviated Ig) are gamma globulin proteins that are found in blood or other bodily fluids of vertebrates, and are used by the immune system to identify and neutralize foreign objects, such as bacteria and viruses. ...
  3. Antibodies (Antikörper) is a German Crime-drama-thriller directed by Christian Alvart and stars Norman Reedus, Wotan Wilke Möhring and André Hennicke.
  4. (Antibody (film)) Antibody is a 2002 science fiction thriller directed by Christian McIntire.
  5. (antibody) A protein produced by B-lymphocytes that binds to a specific antigen
  6. (Antibody) Antibodies are proteins in the blood made by the immune system to help the body fight disease. Vaccines stimulate the body to make antibodies to specific infectious agents eg hepatitis B.
  7. (Antibody) A protein substance produced in the blood or tissues in response to a specific antigen, such as a bacterium or a toxin. Antibodies destroy or weaken bacteria and neutralize organic poisons, thus forming the basis of immunity.
  8. (antibody) A protein produced by a type of white blood cell called a lymphocyte that interacts with an antigen, or foreign protein. Bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms, pollens, dust mites, molds, and foods commonly contain many antigens. ...
  9. (Antibody) An immunoglobulin molecule that binds a specific antigen and is produced and secreted by plasma cells or bound to the surface of B cells. Antibodies are produced in response to specific antigens. ...
  10. (antibody) an infection-fighting protein molecule in blood or secretory fluids that tags, neutralizes, and helps destroy pathogenic microorganisms (e.g., bacteria, viruses) or toxins. ...
  11. (Antibody) a protein produced by white blood cells to fight bacteria, viruses, and other foreign substances.
  12. (antibody) a protein in the blood that defends against foreign agents, such as bacteria. These agents contain certain substances called antigens. Each antibody works against a specific antigen. (See also antigen.)
  13. (Antibody) An immunoglobulin, a specialized immune protein, produced because of the introduction of an antigen into the body, and which possesses the remarkable ability to combine with the very antigen that triggered its production. ...
  14. (Antibody) Proteins that react with antigens on red blood cells and may destroy transfused red blood cells.
  15. (antibody) Any of various substances produced in the body (by lymphocytes and other special cells), which help to defend the body against infections due to viruses, bacteria, and other foreign organisms.
  16. (Antibody) A protein (also called an immunoglobulin) that is manufactured by lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) to neutralize an antigen or foreign protein. ...
  17. (Antibody) In infertility, a compound in the blood, mucus or semen which interferes with normal sperm function.
  18. (Antibody) A protein substance made by the body’s immune system in response to a foreign substance; for example a previous transplanted organ, blood transfusion, virus or pregnancy. Because the antibodies attack the transplanted organ, transplant patients must take powerful antirejection drugs.
  19. (antibody) immune system protein that protects against infection
  20. (Antibody) Immune system proteins that circulate in the blood and recognizes antigens produced by invading agents or abnormal cells.
  21. (antibody) (n): a protein which possesses the ability to bind specifically to specific epitopes on another protein. Proteins on cells or viruses identified by antibodies are typically targetted for removal by the immune system
  22. (Antibody) a protein produced by B cells that binds to foreign substances and marks them for destruction by complement and/or macrophages.
  23. (antibody) a protein molecule tailor-made by the immune system to detect and help destroy invaders, such as bacteria, viruses, and toxins.
  24. (Antibody (Ab)) An immunoglobulin molecule that has a specific amino acid sequence by virtue of which it interacts only with the antigen that induced its synthesis in cells of the lymphoid series or with an antigen closely related to it.
  25. (Antibody) a protein made by white blood cells that reacts with a specific foreign protein as part of the immune response
