This study provides a proof-of-concept for both the feasibility and the antitumor efficacy of intrabrain-delivered cellular immunotherapies. Immunology and Infection Generation of Discriminative Human Monoclonal Antibodies from Rare Antigen-specific B Cells Circulating in Blood Marie-Claire Devilder1,2,3, Mélinda Moyon1,2,3, Xavier Saulquin1,2, Laetitia Gautreau-Rolland1,2 1CRCINA, Inserm, CNRS, Université d'Angers, Université de Nantes, 2LabEx IGO, "Immunotherapy, Graft, Oncology", 3CHU Nantes, France We describe a method for the production of human antibodies specific for an antigen of interest, starting from rare B cells circulating in human blood. Generation of these natural antibodies is efficient and rapid, and the antibodies obtained can discriminate between highly related antigens.
