Monoclonal antibodies are laboratory-produced molecules engineered to serve as substitutes for natural antibodies in the immune system. These antibodies are created by identical immune cells that are clones of a unique parent cell, allowing for highly specific targeting of antigens. Their precision makes them invaluable in drug discovery and delivery, particularly in treating diseases like cancer and autoimmune disorders.
