Contents

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) cross-linking with Fc gamma receptor IIIB (FcyRIIIB) triggers neutrophil degranulation, releasing reactive oxygen species with high levels associated with protection against malaria. The FCGR3B-c.233C>A polymorphism thought to influence the interaction between IgG and FcyRIIIB was recently associated with malaria. We studied...
