Respiratory Syncytial Virus Antibody (8B10) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that specifically detects Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) by immunofluorescence (IF). RSV is a significant pathogen, particularly in infants and young children, leading to severe respiratory illnesses. Anti-RSV antibody (8B10) recognizes the fusion protein of the RSV strain RSS 2 (subtype A), which is crucial for viral infection of host cells by mediating the fusion of viral and cellular membranes, allowing virus penetration into the host cell. This process facilitates viral entry and contributes to syncytia formation, creating multi-nucleated giant cells that disrupt normal tissue function and worsen respiratory distress. The matrix protein assists in viral assembly and regulates viral component trafficking within host cells, while inhibiting host transcription - a mechanism potentially crucial in RSV-caused respiratory disease pathogenesis. RSV monoclonal antibody (8B10) serves as an essential tool for studying RSV infection mechanisms and respiratory health impacts.
