Subfragments from the Fc fragment of human immunoglobulin G. Isolation and physicochemical characterization [PDF]
A fragment termed fragment Fc′ and a related fragment termed fragment pFc′ produced by the actions of papain and pepsin respectively on human immunoglobulin G have been isolated and characterized. Amino acid analyses and experiments utilizing cyanogen bromide to cleave the methionyl bonds of the Fc′ and pFc′ fragments make it possible to locate both ...

The differential ability of human IgG1 and IgG4 to activate complement is determined by the COOH-terminal sequence of the CH2 domain. [PDF]
Using domain switch chimeric antibodies, we confirm the important role of CH2 in complement activation. In addition, we demonstrate that the structures responsible for the differential ability of human IgG1 and IgG4 to activate complement are located at ...

Immunoglobulin treatment ameliorates myocardial injury in experimental autoimmune myocarditis associated with suppression of reactive oxygen species. [PDF]
[Aims]We tested the hypothesis that immunoglobulin ameliorated experimental autoimmune myocarditis (EAM) in mice attributing to the suppression of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated myocardial injury. [Methods]We intraperitoneally administered intact
