Efficacy and Safety of Subcutaneous Efgartigimod PH20 in Adults With Primary Immune Thrombocytopenia (ADVANCE SC): A Multicenter, Randomized, Double‐Blinded, Placebo‐Controlled, Phase 3 Trial

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Primary autoimmune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is characterized by thrombocytopenia, bleeding, and reduced health‐related quality of life. In the Phase 3 ADVANCE IV study, intravenous efgartigimod induced significant platelet count responses versus placebo in patients with chronic ITP. ADVANCE SC, a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double‐blinded,

Impact of mAb-FcRn affinity on IgG transcytosis across human well-differentiated airway epithelium

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Effective treatment and immunoprophylaxis of viral respiratory infections with neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) require maintaining inhibitory concentrations of mAbs at the airway surface.

The neonatal Fc receptor expression during macrophage differentiation is related to autophagy

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
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.

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 ...

Sjögren Disease—B Cells at the Brink: From Autoimmunity to Lymphomagenesis and the Rise of Novel B Cell–Targeted Therapies

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Sjögren disease (SjD) is a common systemic autoimmune disorder characterized by inflammation of the exocrine glands, resulting in dryness. Patients frequently exhibit extraglandular manifestations affecting various organ systems. To date, there are no US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)‐approved disease‐modifying therapies for SjD. In this review, we

Neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) – not only transporter of maternal IgG

open access: yesPostępy Higieny i Medycyny Doświadczalnej, 2018
The neonatal Fc receptor, (FcRn) is a transmembrane, heterodimeric glycoprotein with a structure similar to MHC class I molecules. In contrast to MHC class I antigens, FcRn does not bind to peptides (antigens) but interacts with the Fc fragment of IgG and albumin.

Robust expression of the human neonatal Fc receptor in a truncated soluble form and as a full-length membrane-bound protein in fusion with eGFP.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Studies on the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) have revealed a multitude of important functions in mammals, including protection of IgG and serum albumin (SA) from lysosomal degradation.

Hydrophobic Ligand Binding by Zn-α_2-glycoprotein, a Soluble Fat-depleting Factor Related to Major Histocompatibility Complex Proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Zn-alpha2-glycoprotein (ZAG) is a member of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I family of proteins and is identical in amino acid sequence to a tumor-derived lipid-mobilizing factor associated with cachexia in cancer patients.
