“Therefore I say that it is a narrow policy to suppose that this country or that is to be marked out as the eternal ally or the perpetual enemy of England. We have no eternal allies, and we have no perpetual enemies. Our interests are eternal and perpetual, and those interests it is our duty to follow.”

" IgG3 - IgG4"

...very interesting little beasties...

Class switch toward noninflammatory, spike-specific IgG4 ...

IgG3 and IgG4 are two subclasses of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies. They have different functions in the body, and they can be associated with different diseases.

IgG3

IgG3 is a strong mediator of complement- and FcγR-mediated effector functions

IgG3 protects against bacterial toxins like tetanus and diphtheria, and viral infections

IgG3 levels reach normal adult levels by age 5–7

IgG4

IgG4 has a limited ability to fix complement or activate effector cells

IgG4 is associated with chronic antigen stimulation

IgG4 is associated with autoimmune diseases like pemphigus, bullous pemphigoid, and myasthenia gravis

IgG4 is associated with IgG4-related disease, a syndrome that can affect multiple organ systems

IgG subclass deficiency

People with IgG subclass deficiency have low levels of one or more IgG subclasses, and recurrent infections

IgG4-related disease

IgG4-related disease is a syndrome that can affect multiple organ systems

IgG4-related disease is most common in middle-aged and older men

IgG4-related disease can include type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis, Mikulicz disease, and Riedel thyroiditis
