Abstract
Afucosylated antibodies potentiate natural killer (NK) cell-mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) by enhancing signaling pathways and cellular processes, which in turn, increases cytotoxic potential. Importantly, a better understanding of these processes and properties will aid in exploiting them to help design therapeutic antibodies and strategies that may be of the greatest benefit to patients.Entities:
