Influenza and Antibody-Dependent Cellular Cytotoxicity
Despite the availability of yearly vaccinations, influenza continues to cause seasonal, and pandemic rises in illness and death. An error prone replication mechanism results in antigenic drift and viral escape from immune pressure, and recombination ...

BAT6026, a novel anti-OX40 antibody with enhanced antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity effect for cancer immunotherapy [PDF]
OX40 (CD134), a member of the TNF receptor superfamily, is a widely studied costimulatory immune checkpoint. Several OX40 agonistic antibodies are in the clinical stage for cancer treatment, among which PF-04518600 is the leader and currently in phase II

Determinants of natural killer cell-mediated antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity in SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. [PDF]
A growing body of evidence underscores the role of antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) in antiviral immunity. Yet, the mechanisms underlying the ability of certain antibodies (Abs) to mediate potent ADCC activity remain poorly characterized ...

NK cell mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity in cancer immunotherapy
Natural killer (NK) cells play a major role in cancer immunotherapies that involve tumor-antigen targeting by monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). NK cells express a variety of activating and inhibitory receptors that serve to regulate the function and activity

SARS-CoV-2 Accessory Protein ORF8 Decreases Antibody-Dependent Cellular Cytotoxicity [PDF]
Viruses use many different strategies to evade host immune responses. In the case of SARS-CoV-2, its Spike mutates rapidly to escape from neutralizing antibodies.

The Anti-SLAMF7 Antibody, Elotuzumab, Induces Antibody-Dependent Cellular Cytotoxicity Against CLL Cell Lines [PDF]
SLAMF7, also known as CD319, a SLAM (signaling lymphocytic activation molecule) family receptor, is relatively weakly expressed on chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) B cells.

A mathematical model of antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) [PDF]
Immunotherapies exploit the immune system to target and kill cancer cells, while sparing healthy tissue. Antibody therapies, an important class of immunotherapies, involve the binding to specific antigens on the surface of the tumour cells of antibodies that activate natural killer (NK) cells to kill the tumour cells.

Natural killer cell antibody‐dependent cellular cytotoxicity to Plasmodium falciparum is impacted by cellular phenotypes, erythrocyte polymorphisms, parasite diversity and intensity of transmission [PDF]
Objectives Natural killer (NK) cells make important contributions to anti‐malarial immunity through antibody‐dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), but the role of different components of this pathway in promoting NK cell activation remains unclear ...

Potentiating Antibody-Dependent Cellular Cytotoxicity in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer via the Humanized Anti-CD147 Antibody [PDF]
Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype with high metastatic potential, poor prognosis, and the absence of estrogen receptors, progesterone receptors, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2).
