Investigating the role of IgG and Fcγ receptors in intestinal inflammation
2018-01-01
Abstract excerpt
IgA is the dominant antibody isotype found at mucosal surfaces during homeostasis. However, genetic variation in Fcγ receptors (FcγRs), a family of receptors that mediate immune cell activation by IgG, influences susceptibility to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), suggesting that IgG may be important during gut inflammation. IBD is a chronic relapsing condition with two major subtypes, Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulc...
