“…Afucosylated IgG has an enhanced binding to FcγRIII, resulting in increased cytokine production and cellular responses, such as Ab-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP) and cytotoxicity (ADCC) (6,7,17). In healthy conditions, the majority of IgG found in plasma is fucosylated (~94%) (18,19), but afucosylated, antigen-specific IgG responses have been described in various pathologies, including alloimmune responses to blood cells (20)(21)(22), as well as immune responses to Plasmodium (P) falciparum antigens expressed on erythrocytes (23) and to foreign proteins of enveloped viruses, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (24), dengue virus (25), and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) (2,3). The common characteristic of such responses is that the corresponding pathogenspecific antigens are generally expressed on the host cell membrane, unlike most foreign antigens.…”
