Immunomodulation by IVIg and the Role of Fc-Gamma Receptors: Classic Mechanisms of Action after all?

abstract：:Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) exert immunosuppressive effects on immune cells including dendritic cells (DCs). However, many details of the bidirectional interaction of MSCs with DCs are still unsolved and information on key molecules by which DCs can modulate MSC functions is limited. Here, we report that osteopon...
