045-Cytotoxic IgG: Mechanisms, functions, and applications
This scientific review article focuses on cytotoxic IgG antibodies and their role in antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), a key mechanism for depleting target cells in various diseases. The authors explore the complex molecular and cellular pathways underlying ADCC, emphasizing how factors like target cell type, effector cells, and tissue environment influence its effectiveness. The text also discusses implications for improving therapeutic strategies and provides an updated model of cytotoxic IgG activity, examining the involvement of Fcγ receptors (FcγRs), different IgG…
