Intravenous immunoglobulin is a biological product, manufactured from plasma of healthy donors. Its relative safety and complete immunomodulatory effects affect its consumption rising in inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, notably in neurology. This review article summarizes the current knowledge on the mechanisms of action of intravenous immunoglobulin with respect to different fragments of immunoglobulin molecules G.

Keywords: intravenous imunoglobulin, immunomodulation, autoimmune diseases
