Antibodies may be formed of any of a large number of proteins of high molecular weight. They are produced normally by specialized B cells after stimulation by an antigen and act specifically against the antigen in an immune response that is produced abnormally by some cancer cells. They typically consist of four subunits including two substances that are produced by specialized cells in the body, called B cells. These substances attack foreign material that enters the body in order to prevent or fight off infection. Sometimes these substances may mistakenly recognize the body's organs or sperm as being foreign and attack them. These chemicals normally prevent infection; however, when they attack the sperm or fetus, they cause infertility or miscarriage. Sperm antibodies may be made by either the man or the woman.
