These antigens have been correlated with cancer progression and poor prognosis, and associated with immunosuppressive microenvironment. Presently they are used in clinical trials as therapeutic vaccination, but with limited success due to their low immunogenicity. Alternatively, anti-Tn and/or STn antibodies may be used to harness the immune system against tumor cells. Whilst the development of antibodies against these antigens had a boost two decades ago for diagnostic use, so far no such antibody entered into clinical trials. Possible limitations are the low specificity and efficiency of existing antibodies and that novel antibodies are still necessary. The vast array of methodologies available today will allow rapid antibody development and novel formats. Following the advent of hybridoma technology, the immortalization of human B cells became a methodology to obtain human monoclonal antibodies with better specificity. Advances in molecular biology including phage display technology for high throughput screening, transgenic mice and more recently molecularly engineered antibodies enhanced the field of antibody production. The development of novel antibodies against Tn and STn taking advantage of innovative technologies and engineering techniques may result in innovative therapeutic antibodies for cancer treatment.Centro de Estudos de Doenças Crónicas (CEDOC)Instituto de Higiene e Medicina Tropical (IHMT)DCV - Departamento de Ciências da VidaUCIBIO - Applied Molecular Biosciences UnitNOVA Medical School|Faculdade de Ciências Médicas (NMS|FCM)RUNLoureiro, Liliana RCarrascal, Mylène ABarbas, AnaRamalho, José SNovo, CarlosDelannoy, PhilippeVideira, Paula A2018-05-14T22:03:10Z2015-08-112015-08-11T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article27application/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/36960eng2218-273XPURE: 1815250https://doi.org/10.3390/biom5031783info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-22T17:32:52Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/36960Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T17:03:45.271086Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
