The Contribution of IgG Glycosylation to Antibody-Dependent Cell-Mediated Cytotoxicity (ADCC) and Complement-Dependent Cytotoxicity (CDC) in Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis: An in Vitro Model of Thyroid Autoimmunity
Antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) are involved in destruction of thyroid tissue in Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT). <i>N</i>-glycosylation of the Fc fragment affects the effector functions of IgG by enhancing or suppre...
