Many patients given murine monoclonal antibody become immune to these proteins. Important factors in the development of immunity are (1) the patient's ability to become immune and (2) whether whole immunoglobulin or Fab fragment was used. Circulating anti-murine antibodies increase the murine antibody plasma clearance and the liver or spleen uptake while reducing tumor targeting. Clearance rates and radioassay measured levels of anti-murine antibodies are related to serum murine/anti-murine antibody complexes. Unlabeled murine antibody displaces radiolabeled antibody from these complexes.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007140 Immunoglobulin Fab Fragments Univalent antigen-binding fragments composed of one entire IMMUNOGLOBULIN LIGHT CHAIN and the amino terminal end of one of the IMMUNOGLOBULIN HEAVY CHAINS from the hinge region, linked to each other by disulfide bonds. Fab contains the IMMUNOGLOBULIN VARIABLE REGIONS, which are part of the antigen-binding site, and the first IMMUNOGLOBULIN CONSTANT REGIONS. This fragment can be obtained by digestion of immunoglobulins with the proteolytic enzyme PAPAIN.
