Visual Function Assessment in Geographic Atrophy: A Review

open access: yesClinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Geographic atrophy (GA) causes significant vision impairment and reduction in vision‐related quality of life. Fundus autofluorescence (FAF) is the gold standard of structural assessment of GA but is a surrogate marker for vision loss, which can be assessed by tests of visual function and functional vision.

The fc fragment of IgMs binds C1q to activate the first step of the classical complement pathway, while inhibiting complement‐dependent cytotoxicity

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Multimeric IgM‐fragment crystallizable region (Fc) fragments retain the ability to bind C1q and initiate the classical complement pathway, leading to C4 activation and deposition in vitro. However, the Fc cores can also inhibit complement‐dependent cytotoxicity by competing with surface‐bound antibodies for C1q engagement.
