Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a method for increasing deposition of complement C3b on the bacterial surface and phagocytosis by phagocytes, a therapeutic method and a therapeutic agent for bacterial infections, using an antibody binding to a molecule on the bacterial surface, in which the antibody is modified by substituting at least one amino acid residue with other amino acid so as to show more enhanced complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) than the antibody before substitution of the amino acid residue.
