Megalin Orchestrates FcRn Endocytosis and Trafficking
The neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) is highly expressed in the renal proximal tubule and is important for the reclamation of albumin by cellular transcytosis to prevent its loss in the urine. The initial event of this transcellular transport mechanism is the

Structure of the human astrovirus capsid spike in complex with the neonatal Fc receptor [PDF]
Human astroviruses (HAstVs) are a leading cause of viral gastroenteritis in children worldwide. Recently the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) was identified as a receptor for HAstV, however the molecular basis for the FcRn-HAstV interaction remained unclear ...

Impact of Neonatal Fc Receptor on Transferrin Receptor Antibody Fusion Protein Pharmacokinetics [PDF]
Background: Transferrin receptor-targeting monoclonal antibodies (TfRMAbs) enhance brain drug delivery by facilitating TfR-mediated transcytosis across the blood–brain barrier (BBB).

Characterization of the rabbit neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) and analyzing the immunophenotype of the transgenic rabbits that overexpresses FcRn. [PDF]
The neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) regulates IgG and albumin homeostasis, mediates maternal IgG transport, takes an active role in phagocytosis, and delivers antigen for presentation.

Cell surface dynamics and cellular distribution of endogenous FcRn. [PDF]
A major role for FcRn is the salvage of pinocytosed IgG and albumin from a degradative fate in lysosomes. FcRn achieves this by binding IgG in a pH-dependent manner in acidic endosomes and recycling it to the plasma membrane to be released at neutral pH.

From promise to practice: evaluating the clinical impact of FcRn inhibition in IgG-mediated autoimmune rheumatic diseases [PDF]
The neonatal Fragment Crystallizable receptor (FcRn) plays a central role in maintaining immunoglobulin (Ig) G homeostasis by protecting IgG from lysosomal degradation and regulating its transcytosis.

The neonatal Fc receptor expression during macrophage differentiation is related to autophagy
The neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) plays a central role in recycling and biodistributing immunoglobulin G. FcRn is also involved in many physiological immune functions as well as pathological immune responses in cancer or autoimmune diseases.

THE ROLE OF THE NEONATAL FC RECEPTOR IN THE UNCOATING OF ECHOVIRUSES AND COXSACKIEVIRUS A9
The aim of this study was to determine the role of the human neonatal receptor for the Fc fragment of IgG (hFcRn) as a common uncoating cellular receptor for echoviruses and coxsackievirus A9 during infection of human rhabdomyosarcoma (RD) cells ...
