抗人 IgM 抗体对
01AB00229
Human IgM is the largest and first antibody produced by the body in response to an initial exposure to an antigen. IgM is a pentameric structure that is highly effective at activating the complement system and agglutinating pathogens. IgM plays a crucial role in the body's early immune response, as it is the first antibody to appear after infection or vaccination.IgM has a low affinity for antigens but its pentameric structure allows it to bind multiple epitopes, resulting in high avidity and efficient pathogen neutralization.IgM is also involved in the clearance of apoptotic cells and cancer cells through its ability to bind the apoptosis inhibitor of macrophage (AIM) protein.Deficiencies or abnormalities in IgM production have been linked to various diseases, including immunodeficiencies, autoimmune disorders, and infectious diseases.For example, low levels of IgM have been associated with increased susceptibility to infections, while elevated IgM levels can indicate ongoing or recent infection. Understanding the structure and functions of IgM continues to provide insights into its role in health and disease.
