What are peptide antibodies?

Antibodies are Y -shaped proteins on the surface of B lymphocyte cells that use the immune system to combat pathogens. Peptide antibodies are specifically made by the body to combat unusual forms of peptides made by patients with body cells or pathogens. The presence of certain types of peptides in the cells causes sending peptide antibodies to eliminate them. Research scientists use peptide antibodies to detect and identify diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis.

Citrullin antibodies are peptide antibodies that are sent to attack the amino acid citrulin in circular or circular peptides. The amino acid citrulline is usually not in the body. It is usually produced only when the body converts the amino acid Orhithin into arginine. The presence of persistent citrulin in peptides causes the production of citrulin antibody, which is sent to its elimination. Citrulin antibody is often called rheumatoidfactor. This is because citrulin antibodies are present in up to 80 percent of people with rheumatoid arthritis, autoimmune disease that attacks the joints of the body. The level of citrulin antibodies detected in the body tends to correlate with the severity of the disease.

B lymphocyte cells with Y -shaped antibodies are released into the bloodstream or lymphatic fluids of the body in response to antigenic stimulus. An antigenic stimulus may be a virus, parasite, bacteria, transplanted organ or other foreign agents. The upper arms of the Y -shaped antibody bind and neutralize it or move them to the white blood cell known as the macrophage to be destroyed. In the case of peptide antibodies, the antibody binds to a specific peptide in the pathogen.

bone marrow creates lymphocyte cells. They turn into plasma cells that are able to produce many different types of antibodies. Every antibody jE designed to attack a specific type of antigen.

The

virus vaccine is created by deactivating pathogen and injection into the human body. B lymphocytes detect deactivated antigens and broadcast antibodies until they know which types of antibodies destroy antigens. Basically, the vaccine protects the person from infection by learning antibodies to detain and destroy a new type of microscopic pathogen.
