The present invention features antibodies that bind to human neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn). These anti-FcRn antibodies are useful, e.g., to promote clearance of autoantibodies in a subject, to suppress antigen presentation in a subject, to block an immune response, e.g., block an immune complex-based activation of the immune response in a subject, and to treat immunological diseases (e.g., autoimmune diseases) in a subject. These anti-FcRn antibodies are also useful, e.g., to decrease pathogenic antibody transport across the placenta of a pregnant subject, to increase pathogenic antibody catabolism in a pregnant subject, and to treat an antibody-mediated enhancement of viral disease in a fetus or a neonate.
