Since the description of the first mouse knockout for an IgG Fc receptor seven years ago, considerable progress has been made in defining the in vivo functions of these receptors in diverse biological systems. The role of activating FcγRs in providing a

Brain Invaders: IgG and IgG receptors in schizophrenia [PDF]
Elevated proinflammatory cytokines are found in the brain and the blood from schizophrenia cases and are used to define the “high” and “low” inflammatory biotypes. Cytokines elevated in schizophrenia mediate IgG release and effector functions.

IgG and Fcγ Receptors in Intestinal Immunity and Inflammation [PDF]
Fcγ receptors (FcγR) are cell surface glycoproteins that mediate cellular effector functions of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies. Genetic variation in FcγR genes can influence susceptibility to a variety of antibody-mediated autoimmune and inflammatory ...

Impact of Plasma Membrane Domains on IgG Fc Receptor Function
Lipid cell membranes not only represent the physical boundaries of cells. They also actively participate in many cellular processes. This contribution is facilitated by highly complex mixtures of different lipids and incorporation of various membrane ...

Essential role of NK cells in IgG therapy for experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
Intravenous immunoglobulin has long been used in treating autoimmune diseases, although mechanisms remain uncertain. Activating Fcγ receptors are receptors of IgG and reported to be essential in intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy.

Antigen-specific influence of GM/KM allotypes on IgG isotypes and association of GM allotypes with susceptibility to
Background Plasmodium falciparum malaria is a complex disease in which genetic and environmental factors influence susceptibility. IgG isotypes are in part genetically controlled, and GM/KM allotypes are believed to be involved in this control.

The Roles of Membrane Rafts in CD32A-Mediated Phagocytosis [PDF]
Membrane rafts are highly dynamic heterogeneous sterol- and sphingolipid-rich micro-domains on cell surfaces. They are generally believed to provide residency for cell surface molecules (e.g., adhesion and signaling molecules) and scaffolding to ...
