Human Fcγ-receptors selectively respond to C-reactive protein isoforms

IntroductionThe pentameric C-reactive protein (pCRP), an acute-phase protein, binds to lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) displayed on the surface of dying cells and microorganisms to activate the complement system and to opsonize immune cells via Fcγ-receptors (FcγRs). Members of the FcγR family are cha...
