Enhanced immunogenic potential of cancer immunotherapy antibodies in human IgG1 transgenic mice

open access: yesmAbs, 2022
Clinical anti-drug-antibody (ADA) responses represent a substantial obstacle to the development of efficacious therapeutic antibodies. The enhanced ADA production against the idiotype (Id) often displayed by cancer immunotherapy antibodies (CitAbs) can ...

New roles for Fc receptors in neurodegeneration-the impact on immunotherapy for Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
There are an estimated 18 million Alzheimer's disease (AD) sufferers worldwide and with no disease modifying treatment currently available, development of new therapies represents an enormous unmet clinical need.

Effects of receptor dimerization on the interaction between the class I major histocompatibility complex-related Fc receptor and IgG [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) transports maternal IgG from ingested milk in the gut to the bloodstream of newborn mammals. An FcRn dimer was observed in crystals of the receptor alone and of an FcRn-Fc complex, but its biological relevance was unknown.

Bullous pemphigoid induced by IgG targeting type XVII collagen non‐NC16A/NC15A extracellular domains is driven by Fc gamma receptor‐ and complement‐mediated effector mechanisms and is ameliorated by neonatal Fc receptor blockade

open access: yesJournal of Pathology, 2023
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune blistering disease characterized by autoantibodies targeting type XVII collagen (Col17) with the noncollagenous 16A (NC16A) ectodomain representing the immunodominant site.

Natural history of liver disease in a large international cohort of children with Alagille syndrome: Results from the GALA study

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Natural history of liver disease in a large international cohort of children with Alagille syndrome: Results from the GALA study. Abstract Background and Aims Alagille syndrome (ALGS) is a multisystem disorder, characterized by cholestasis. Existing outcome data are largely derived from tertiary centers, and real‐world data are lacking.

Targeting the Neonatal Fc Receptor for Antigen Delivery Using Engineered Fc Fragments [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2008
AbstractThe development of approaches for Ag delivery to the appropriate subcellular compartments of APCs and the optimization of Ag persistence are both of central relevance for the induction of protective immunity or tolerance. The expression of the neonatal Fc receptor, FcRn, in APCs and its localization to the endosomal system suggest that it might

Neonatal Fc receptor antagonist efgartigimod safely and sustainably reduces IgGs in humans

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2018
BACKGROUND. Intravenous Ig (IVIg), plasma exchange, and immunoadsorption are frequently used in the management of severe autoimmune diseases mediated by pathogenic IgG autoantibodies.

Single-domain antibodies and their formatting to combat viral infections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Since their discovery in the 1990s, single-domain antibodies (VHHs), also known as NanobodiesA (R), have changed the landscape of affinity reagents. The outstanding solubility, stability, and specificity of VHHs, as well as their small size, ease of ...

Taking the Hinge off: An Approach to Effector-Less Monoclonal Antibodies

open access: yesAntibodies, 2020
A variety of Fc domain engineering approaches for abrogating the effector functions of mAbs exists. To address some of the limitations of the current Fc domain silencing approaches, we are exploring a less commonly considered option which relies on the ...

Characterization of the Interaction between the Herpes Simplex Virus Type I Fc Receptor and Immunoglobulin G [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Herpes simplex virus type I (HSV-1) virions and HSV-1-infected cells bind to human immunoglobulin G (hIgG) via its Fc region. A complex of two surface glycoproteins encoded by HSV-1, gE and gI, is responsible for Fc binding.
