Neutrophils are essential for induction of vaccine-like effects by antiviral monoclonal antibody immunotherapies.
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are the largest class of biomedicines. Administered to neutralize and eliminate pathogens, they can also induce a lasting immune response, such as vaccination. The work of Mar Naranjo-Gomez et al., In the team “Oncogenesis and Immunotherapy” has demonstrated an unexpected role of a type of leukocytes, neutrophils, in the therapeutic efficacy of mAbs. These cells of the … Continue reading Neutrophils are essential for induction of vaccine-like effects by antiviral monoclonal antibody immunotherapies.
