Electron tomography of late stages of FcRn-mediated antibody transcytosis in neonatal rat small intestine [PDF]
The neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) transports maternal immunoglobulin (IgG) across epithelia to confer passive immunity to mammalian young. In newborn rodents, FcRn transcytoses IgG from ingested milk across the intestinal epithelium for release into the ...
