Functions of IgM fc receptor (FcµR) related to autoimmunity

AbstractUnlike Fc receptors for switched immunoglobulin (Ig) isotypes, Fc receptor for IgM (FcµR) is selectively expressed by lymphocytes. The ablation of the FcµR gene in mice impairs B cell tolerance as evidenced by concomitant production of autoantibodies of IgM and IgG isotypes. In this essay, w...
