Discover how antibodies trigger immune responses through complement activation (CDC), cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) & pathogen neutralization for effective immune defense.

Learn about antibody structure & function, including the roles of Fab & Fc regions in antigen binding & immune response, key to therapeutic antibody development.

Explore ADCs, combining monoclonal antibodies with potent drugs for precision cancer treatment. Learn about key components, clinical applications, & future innovations.

Fc-mediated antibody effector functions play an important role in the humoral immune response and form a necessary link between innate and adaptive immunity. The constant (Fc) region is the tail portion of an antibody that interacts with other components of the immune system, such as immune cells and complement proteins. Well-known functions include opsonization, antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP), and complement activation.

Biointron is thrilled to be part of the 4th Fc-Mediated Function Summit, a pivotal event focusing on the latest developments in FcRn, FcγR, and IgG, aiming to enhance related therapeutic applications. This unique conference, happening in Boston from April 16-18, 2024, will be gathering over 80 specialists in the field to share insights on molecular engineering and clinical outcomes.

Uncover the essential roles of antibodies, from neutralization & opsonization to complement activation, agglutination, & ADCC. Discover how they safeguard the immune system.
