Both Th1 and Th2 Cytokines Affect the Ability of Monoclonal Antibodies To Protect Mice against Cryptococcus neoformans

Journal ArticleDOI

Immunoglobulin G monoclonal antibodies to Cryptococcus neoformans protect mice deficient in complement component C3.

TL;DR: In the absence of C3, all IgG isotypes prolonged the lives of mice infected with C. neoformans, indicating that protection by IgG does not require the complement pathways, and protection with IgG3 in the complement-deficient mice was observed, suggesting that complement is involved in the lack of protection observed with Igg3 in other mouse models.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is hard to think of a more banal statement one could make about the law than to say that it necessarily claims legal authority to govern conduct as mentioned in this paper. But no one has ever denied (how could they?) that the law holds itself out as having the legal power to tell us what we may or may not do.
