DOES THE REGENERON MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY TREATMENT USE ABORTED BABY CELLS?

Regeneron claims they do not, but they have a history of lying about using the HEK293 stem cell line, and they also lie about using aborted baby organs to humanize their mice.

Here is my first thread from last October discussing the issue of Regeneron's use of the HEK293 stem cell line. Discusses the press statements from Regeneron and Charlotte Lozier Institute and the contradictions:

This is the claim widely circulated in pro-life circles that Regeneron does not use fetal material in their humanized mice:

However, I have discovered a 2017 study which lists several Regeneron scientists, including the co-founder of Regeneron, George D. Yancopoulos, in which human fetal liver obtained from the notorious Advanced Biosciences Resource is used to humanize mice:

This 2017 study was authored in part by four Regeneron scientists: Davor Frieta, Cagan Gurer, Andrew J. Murphy, George D. Yancopoulos.

Yancopoulos is co-founder, president and chief scientific officer of Regeneron Pharmaceuticals.

The study states that "fetal liver samples were obtained from the Human Fetal Tissue Repository at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, NY, and from Advanced Biosciences Resources, Alameda, CA" to make human CD34 cells.

Here's the key quote:

"Newborn RG SKI and RG SKI IL-6 mice were irradiated and engrafted with human CD34+ cells purified from the fetal liver. "

In the closing acknowledgements:

"The authors thank the Regeneron Pharmaceuticals' Velocigene team for generating human IL-6 knock-in mice.

This study was supported by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, National Cancer Institute . . . "

Please note that this study states that human fetal liver was obtained from Advanced Biosciences Resources. Judicial Watch has published hundreds of documents about federal employees purchasing "fresh and never frozen aborted baby organs from ABR:

Looks like the notorious fetal experimenter Dr. Eugene Gu was correct in his initial assessment of Regeneron's magic mouse cocktail which miraculously cured Trump of his COVID affliction:

The firm from which the Regeneron scientists obtained the fetal liver for this 2017 study is ABR (Advanced Biosciences Resource) exposed as Planned Parenthood's partner in the trafficking of aborted baby parts.

I just found a second scientific study, co-authored by George Yancopoulos, the co-founder of Regeneron, in which human fetal liver from ABR is also used to humanize mice. This ScienceDirect article is from 2011.

George Yancopoulos is listed below as one of the authors:

The relevant section citing ABR as the source of the human fetal liver used to isolate CD34 cells to humanize the mice, using Regeneron's VelociGene technology.

Best description of the process involved in making monoclonal antibody cocktail like Regeneron:

"Monoclonal antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 can come from human patients who have recovered from COVID-19, or from mice genetically engineered to have a human immune system and immunized with viral proteins."

"The antibodies need to be “humanized”, otherwise human immune systems will see them as foreign and try to fight them off. Scientists use large cultures of Chinese hamster ovary cells to produce monoclonal antibodies in bulk."

"In contrast, the antibodies made by someone’s immune system naturally are an assortment or polyclonal — they’re not all the same. Monoclonal antibodies come from taking a single immune cell and copying it in a laboratory."
