Humoral immune response modulation

Molecular classification
Other (refers to a physiological process, not a molecule)
01

Overview

Humoral immune response modulation refers to any process that influences the magnitude, quality, or nature of the humoral immune response, which is the aspect of immunity mediated by macromolecules such as antibodies, complement proteins, and certain antimicrobial peptides in extracellular fluids. Modulation of this pathway can enhance or suppress antibody production, influence the quality of antibodies generated (e.g., isotype switching, affinity maturation), and thereby alter protection against pathogens or susceptibility to immune-mediated diseases. It is central to the effectiveness of vaccines, the development of autoimmune diseases, and the action of various immunomodulatory drugs, but it is a description of immune system processes, not a single molecular target or receptor.
