ABSTRACT

Molecular biology technical methods have caused a high impact in the field of immunology. They have made it possible to know the answer to many questions regarding the immune system function and have increased our ability to understand, diagnose and treat a great deal of immunological diseases. A review of the literature about the importance of molecular biology in the study of immune response was made, including general concepts, classification of the most used technologies, as well as some applications in the study of immunology and immunopathology. Update information with analytic view about the main methods used in molecular biology and its application in the evaluation of immune response is shown. Usefulness of molecular biology techniques are a powerfull instrument to develop new and better alternatives for diagnoses and treatment.
