Is Pharmacology Difficult Podcast MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES AS DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEM

Welcome all to IS PHARMACOLOGY DIFFICULT Podcast! I am Dr Radhika
Vijay.


How do monoclonal antibodies behave as drug carriers? How are
they named so uniquely? In today's episode I will be discussing
all this mechanics. Monoclonal antibodies are an important drug
delivery system, how the are structured in a very special unique
way will be discussed first, then I will be throwing light on
different epitopes, the Hybridoma technique to structure these
products. It will tell you how murine and human parts and gene
materials are fused and manipulated to make these desired
antibodies. There is a role of genetic DNA technology and
grafting techniques etc.After explaining little complicated
structural details, I will jump to the naming technique of
Monoclonal antibodies. 


There is a "mab" in the end part in name of any monoclonal
antibody, just before "mab", letter is prefixed to tell the
source of antibody, and before this letter, a letter or set of
letters is placed to tell the therapeutic use. of antibody. 


All these will be complemented with suitable examples so that
there is no space of confusion, doubts and queries in your
mindset, got it. Finally, with my views on essence of good
conversations, good sleep and the quality of being interested in
right and valuable thins in life, I will be putting a fullstop to
my talks for the day, hope you all like it and derive the maximum
benefit out of this day's chat....
