Fig 3. The half-life of rFVIIIFc is predominantly extended by FcRn expressed in somatic cells, but not in hematopoietic cells.

The clearance of the following proteins is determined in bone marrow FcRn chimeric mice. (A) rFVIII (250 IU/kg), which clearance is not affected by FcRn (B) rFVIIIFc (250 IU/kg) which is predominantly protected from clearance by FcRn expressed in somatic cells (KO→WT). (C) rFIXFc (250 IU/kg) is mostly protected from clearance by FcRn expressed in somatic cells (KO→WT) (D) human IgG1 (5 mg/kg) is protected from clearance by FcRn expressed in hematopoietic cells (WT→KO). Plasma levels measured at 5 minute are set to 100% and the calculated mean residence times (MRT) are show in the graph insert, n = 4 for each data-point. Significance between plasma levels for individual time points on the PK curves is determined by an unpaired 2-tailed student t-test. A significant difference is indicated between PK curves with one or more significant time point differences (p<0.05).
