Abstract

This review briefly traces the historical development of antibody research and related technologies. The path from early perceptions of immunity to the emergence of modern immunotherapy has been marked by pivotal discoveries and technological advances. Early insights into immunity led to the development of vaccination and serotherapy. The elucidation of antibody structure and function paved the way for monoclonal antibody technology and its application in diagnosis and therapy. Breakthroughs in genetic engineering have enabled the production of humanized antibodies and the advances in Fc engineering, thereby increasing therapeutic efficacy. The discovery of immune checkpoints and cytokines revolutionized the treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases. The field continues to evolve rapidly with the advent of antibody-drug conjugates, bispecific antibodies, and CAR T-cell therapies. As we face global health challenges, antibody research remains at the forefront of medical innovation and offers promising solutions for the future.
