TYR and neoplasm: In some patients suffering from cancer lesions, serum IgG antibodies are present that recognize cancer cells, form immune complexes and consequently activate FcγR. A sustained serological anti-tumor response occurs in patients with melanoma, which includes IgG antibodies against cell surface tumor antigens such as the cancer/testis antigens (NY-ESO-1, MAGE, SSX) and tyrosinase [19–21].
