Humanization of Predicted T-Cell Epitopes Reduces the Immunogenicity of Chimeric Antibodies: New Evidence Supporting a Simple Method
1 Aug 2003
Abstract excerpt
Genetic engineering has provided several approaches to reduce immunogenicity of murine antibodies. We described previously a new method based on the humanization of the linear epitopes presented to T cells. In brief, potential immunogenic epitopes in the variable region were identified and subjected to point mutations to make them human and/or to modify amphipatic motifs. The resulting recombinant antibody...
