High impact information on Immune Adherence Reaction

FcIgG and C3 (CR1 and CR3) receptors are responsible for binding opsonized particles, phagocytosis, and immune adherence reactions by circulating and tissue-fixed mononuclear phagocytes [1].
In addition, the immune adherence reaction between Ehum and EAC1423b could be blocked by previous treatment of Ehum with C5 or C3 [2].
These observations suggest that in SLE the defective immune adherence reaction might be responsible for the accelerated disappearance of IC from the circulation [3].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Immune Adherence Reaction

By C3-affinity chromatography an activity could be isolated that inhibited the immune adherence reaction and C3b-dependent rosette formation [4].
