ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates, in general, to methods of stimulating phagocytosis and thereby combating infection and/or modulating immune complex disease, in particular, to methods of modulating the number and type of Fc receptors present on cells that normally possess such receptors, including monocytes and macrophages, as well as on cells that normally do not possess Fc receptors, such as fibroblasts, and to compounds and compositions suitable for use in such methods.
