huIgG serves as a membrane-bound or secreted immunoglobulin receptor that stimulates differentiation and clonal expansion of B lymphocytes upon specific antigen binding to form immunoglobulin-secreting plasma cells. Immunoglobulins are important during the recognition phase of humoral immunity and are critical mediators of effector mechanisms through the binding of soluble and membrane protein antigens via the variable domain.
The abundance of the human IgG1 isotope makes it an attractive target for biopharmaceutical research, particularly in drug development and antibody therapeutics. Increased levels of IgG heavy chain have been observed in prostate cancer patients, with huIgG predicted to play a role in the regulation of prostate cancer growth through the MEK/ERK/c-Myc pathway.
