TLDR
IgG-polymorphisms and post-translational modification of the antibodies in the form of glycosylation, affect IgG-function will be the focus of the current review.Abstract:
Of the five immunoglobulin isotypes, Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is most abundant in human serum. The four subclasses, IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 and IgG4 which are highly conserved, differ in their constant region, particularly in their hinges and upper CH2 domains. These regions are involved in binding to both IgG-Fc receptor (FcγR) and C1q. As a result, the different subclasses have different effector functions, both in terms of triggering FcγR-expressing cells, resulting in phagocytosis or Antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), and activating complement. The Fc-regions also contain a binding epitope for the neonatal Fc-receptor (FcRn), responsible for the extended half-life, placental transport, and bidirectional transport of IgG to mucosal surfaces. However, FcRn is also expressed in myeloid cells, where it participates in both phagocytosis and antigen presentation together with classical FcγR and complement. How these properties, IgG-polymorphisms and post-translational modification of the antibodies in the form of glycosylation, affect IgG-function, will be the focus of the current review.read more

The Sleep-Immune Crosstalk in Health and Disease
TL;DR: The induction of a hormonal constellation that supports immune functions is one likely mechanism underlying the immune-supporting effects of sleep, and sleep appears to promote inflammatory homeostasis through effects on several inflammatory mediators, such as cytokines.
Journal ArticleDOI
The making of bispecific antibodies
TL;DR: There is not ‘one best format’ for generating bispecific antibodies, and no single format is suitable for all, or even most of, the desired applications, but the bispespecific formats collectively serve as a valuable source of diversity that can be applied to the development of therapeutics for various indications.

TL;DR: Select IgG1 variants with improved binding to FcγRIIIA exhibited up to 100% enhancement in antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity using human effector cells; these variants included changes at residues not found at the binding interface in the IgG/Fcγ RIIIA co-crystal structure.

Anti-Inflammatory Activity of Immunoglobulin G Resulting from Fc Sialylation
TL;DR: It is shown that IgG acquires anti-inflammatory properties upon Fc sialylation, which is reduced upon the induction of an antigen-specific immune response, and may provide a switch from innate anti- inflammatory activity in the steady state to generating adaptive pro-inflammatory effects upon antigenic challenge.

TL;DR: The results indicate that IgG isolated from normal individuals, patients with RA and patients with OA contains different distributions of asparagine-linked bi-antennary complex-type oligosaccharide structures, and these two arthritides may therefore be glycosylation diseases, reflecting changes in the intracellular processing, or post-secretory degradation of N-linked oligOSaccharides.
