Therapeutic antibodies are implicated into the very promising and fast growing area of pharmaceutics. Human hybridoma technology, allowing generation of natural human antibodies in a native form, seems to be the most direct way that require no additional modifications for production of therapeutic antibodies. However, technical difficulties in human hybridoma creation discovered in the 80s of the last century have switched the mainstream therapeutic antibody development into new directions like display and transgenic mice techniques. These approaches have provided remarkable achievements in antibody engineering within last 15 years, but also revealed other limitations. Thus, it is time to turn back to forgotten human hybridoma technology. In this review, we describe new advances in all components of human hybridoma technology and discuss challenges in generating novel therapeutic mABs based on hybridoma technologies.

Introduction: Timely and accurate diagnosis is crucial for the effective treatment and prevention of brucellosis. Current serological diagnostics, primarily based on lipopolysaccharide (LPS), suffer from cross-reactivity with other Gram-negative bacteria, which limits their specificity. Periplasmic protein 26 (BP26), a highly immunogenic antigen found in , has emerged as a promising alternative for enhancing diagnostic specificity.

Background: Studies of human IgE and its targeted epitopes on allergens have been very limited. We have an established method to immortalize IgE encoding B cells from allergic individuals.
Objective: To develop an unbiased and comprehensive panel of peanut-specific human IgE mAbs to characterize key immunodominant antigenic regions and epitopes on peanut allergens to map the molecular interactions responsible for inducing anaphylaxis.

Development of antibodies for clinical use is a complex process involving numerous aspects, with antigen specificity being the most important. Initially, polyclonal antibodies, that can recognize multiple specific and nonspecific antigens (polyreactive), were developed and were very effective in the treatments. Later on, the polyspecificity/polyreactivity of these polyclonal antibodies (binding to multiple antigens) raised concerns about therapeutic efficacy because of their nonspecific interactions and challenges, such as development of immune complexes, batch-to-batch variability.

The ingestion of food contaminated with citrinin (CIT) poses a variety of health risks to humans and animals. The immunogens (CIT-COOH-BSA, CIT-H-BSA) and detection antigen (CIT-COOH-OVA, CIT-H-OVA) were synthesised using the active ester method (-COOH) and formaldehyde addition method (-H). A hybridoma cell line (3G5) that secretes anti-CIT monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) was screened via CIT-H-BSA immunisation of mice, cell fusion, and ELISA screening technology.
