Antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity: An immune response in which antibody, by coating target cells, makes them vulnerable to attack by immune cells.
Antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity is commonly (and blissfully) abbreviated ADCC.
An immunologic response in which an immunologic effector cell binds to a target cell coated with antibodies, triggering a series of metabolic events that leads to ...
