Aids Glossary
antibody (ab¸ immunoglobulin¸ ig)
an immunoglobulin protein secreted by activated plasma cells, which evolve from B-cells. Antibodies are present throughout the blood and tissues; they are produced in response to stimulation by foreign antigens as part of the body's defense against disease. Specific antibodies bind to and act upon specific antigens; the antigen/antibody reaction forms the basis of humoral (TH2) immunity. Neutralizing antibodies destroy or inactivate infectious agents,
while enhancing antibodies promote infection. There are 5 classes of immunoglobulins: IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG and IgM. See also immunoglobulin A-M.

It first appeared in English in the Middle English period in words borrowed from Old French, and continued to be borrowed in Modern French words and eventually from Classical Latin, especially in the vocabulary of sciencemedicinebotany, and so on.
