We have investigated the possible physical interactions between CR, receptors for the Fc gamma R and surface Ig (sIg) on the surface membrane of murine B lymphocytes. We used the rat mAb to murine CR, 8C12, and 7G6, as CR ligands, and soluble Ag-antibody complexes as FcR ligands; and F(ab')2 fragments of rabbit antibodies specific for mouse IgM and IgD as sIg ligands. We have found that: 1) sIg, CR, and Fc gamma R are not directly linked, because capping of any one did not affect the expression of the others; 2) the mAb 8C12 and 7G6 failed by themselves to cross-link CR; 3) soluble Ag-antibody complexes crosslinked some, Fc gamma R on a minority of Fc gamma R+ lymphocytes; 4) once loaded with anti-CR mAb, CR co-capped with sIg when sIg was cross-linked; 5) once loaded with Ag-antibody complexes, Fc gamma R also co-capped with sIg when sIg was sIg was cross-linked; 6) loading of Fc gamma R did not affect the co-capping of surface CR with cross-linked sIg and conversely, loading of CR did not affect the co-capping of Fc gamma R with cross-linked sIg; only loaded CR or Fc gamma R co-capped with sIg regardless of the status of the other surface molecule; 7) neither loaded nor free CR co-capped with cross-linked Fc gamma R, and neither loaded nor free Fc gamma R co-capped with cross-linked CR. These results demonstrate that both Fc gamma R and CR independently become associated with sIg when either receptor is loaded and sIg is cross-linked. 相似文献

The murine lymphocyte receptor for IgE. III. Use of chemical cross-linking reagents to further characterize the B lymphocyte Fc epsilon receptor 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Cross-linking reagents were used to further characterize the murine B cell receptor for the Fc portion of IgE (Fc epsilon R) and compare this receptor to the well-characterized high-affinity Fc epsilon R on rat basophilic leukemia (RBL) cells. The disulfide cleavable and noncleavable reagents 3,3'-dithiobis(sulfosuccinimidyl) propionate (DTSSP) and bis(sulfosuccinimidyl) suberate (BS3) were used. With these reagents, efficient cross-linking of the alpha component of the high-affinity RBL Fc epsilon R to the membrane-buried beta and gamma components occurred only if the membrane was solubilized before the cross-linking reaction. In studies with purified murine B cells, IgE could be cross-linked to the Fc epsilon R on intact cells with either DTSSP or BS3. Under the same conditions, up to 10% of the B cell surface immunoglobulin (sIg) (both IgM and IgD) was also found to cross-link to a portion of the IgE/Fc epsilon R complex, suggesting that on the intact murine B cell the Fc epsilon R is frequently in close association with sIg. The B cell Fc epsilon R was also examined for the presence of receptor-associated proteins. Under conditions where the high-affinity RBL Fc epsilon R was substantially cross-linked to the alpha, beta, gamma complex, no evidence was seen for similar cross-linking of the B cell Fc epsilon R. Cross-linking experiments on affinity-purified Fc epsilon R preparations also gave no evidence for receptor-associated proteins with the B cell Fc epsilon R, although evidence for receptor-receptor association was seen. Thus, these data further support the concept that there may be little relationship between the high-affinity mast cell/basophil Fc epsilon R and the low-affinity lymphocyte Fc epsilon R. 相似文献

Cross-linking of the high affinity Fc receptor for human immunoglobulin G1 (Fc gamma RI) on U937 cells triggered superoxide anion (O-2) release. This was accomplished by the binding of an Fc gamma RI-specific monoclonal antibody, mAb 32, followed by cross-linking of the mAb on the cell with anti-mouse IgG F(ab')2 by Fc gamma RI-specific mAbs 32 and 22 used as an equimolar mixture or by Fc gamma RI-specific mAb 197 (a murine IgG2a and thus a multivalent ligand for Fc gamma RI) alone. At subsaturating concentrations of the Fc gamma RI-cross-linking ligands, O2- generation was continuous over relatively long intervals. However, saturating concentrations triggered an often substantial but always transient O2- burst. This transient burst of oxidase activity ceased with maximal ligand accumulation on the cell. Cells in which oxidase activity had ceased could be restimulated using phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate or aggregated human IgG1, indicating that cessation of O2- generation was not due to a generalized exhaustion or inhibition of the NADPH oxidase pathway. Cells incubated in subsaturating concentrations of cross-linking antibodies continued to release O2- until binding of the ligand ceased. In addition, the rates of O2- production and ligand accumulation were the same. Thus, continuous O2- production appeared to be dependent upon continuous de novo formation of cross-linked and activated Fc gamma RI. Furthermore, the mol of O2- released in response to Fc gamma RI cross-linking by the multivalent ligand mAb 197 were directly proportional to the mol of mAb bound over a range of saturating and subsaturating concentrations. This evidence suggests a quantal relationship between each Fc gamma RI activated (cross-linked) and the resultant oxidase activity and supports a "rate" model for the activation of this response. Thus, each Fc gamma RI entering the pool of activated receptors probably makes a unitary contribution to the signal. An additional finding showed that cross-linked Fc gamma RI became associated with the cell cytoskeleton and that this association was also transient. Dissociation of Fc gamma RI from its cytoskeletal attachment occurred well after cessation of O2- production. 相似文献

Transient activation of the NADPH oxidase through Fc gamma RI. Oxidase deactivation precedes internalization of cross-linked receptors 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
It is well known that Fc gamma R mediate the rapid release of agents of inflammation and, in addition, play an important role in the uptake of stimulatory antibody complexes. Activation of the FcR for human IgG1 (Fc gamma RI) on human monocytic cells triggers a transient activation of the NADPH oxidase. In this study, we tested the possibility that transience of the NADPH oxidase activation might have been the result of rapid internalization of cross-linked Fc gamma RI. Stimulatory receptor moieties were formed by cross-linking Fc gamma RI with receptor-specific mAb that are known to trigger superoxide anion release. The formation of the stimulatory receptor units was determined by quantitating the rate of superoxide anion production through its reduction of cytochrome c. This rate has been found to correlate with the rate of binding of cross-linking antibody and, therefore, the rate of formation of the stimulatory moieties (receptor aggregates). Internalization of cross-linked Fc gamma RI was measured by quantitation of cell-associated FITC-labeled Fc gamma RI-specific mAb resistant to acid elution. We found that cross-linking antibody bound to Fc gamma RI continued to be taken up by the cells well after cessation of oxidase activity. The constant rate of uptake and the differential effect of temperature on these two functions suggested that they are separately regulated. Quantitation of cross-linked receptors that were inactive, i.e., no longer stimulating superoxide anion production, indicated that 50% of internalizable, and therefore cross-linked, Fc gamma RI remained on the surface after oxidase activity had ceased. This evidence of cessation of oxidase activity before the endocytic uptake of mAb/R stimulatory units indicates that the activated state of surface cross-linked Fc gamma RI is of brief duration and that occupation of the receptors by cross-linking-ligand does not sustain the activated state of the receptor. Thus, Fc gamma RI-mediated oxidase activation is temporally limited to the formation of the stimulatory receptor moiety. 相似文献

The interaction of an Ag ligand with its B cell surface Ig (sIg) receptor can occur via an FcR-dependent or -independent pathway. We previously found that transfected TNP-specific B cells undergo both Ca2+ signaling and desensitization upon interaction with the thymus-dependent Ag TNP-OVA. Similarly, we showed that these B cells can also be desensitized by cross-linking sIg to the Fc gamma R via the formation of an Ag-antibody bridge. Thus, Ag-specific B cells can be desensitized by two different Ag-dependent events, one mediated by Ag-sIg interaction and the other by sIg-Fc gamma R cross-linking. Inasmuch as Ag-sIg and sIg-Fc gamma R interactions lead to positive and negative signaling, it was of interest to determine whether B cell desensitization mediated by these interactions occurs by one of the well known signaling pathways in B cells. We found that Ag-induced changes in [Ca2+]i could be readily dissociated from Ag-induced desensitization, indicating that a Ca(2+)-independent pathway is likely responsible for this pathway of desensitization. To determine if PKC plays a role in B cell desensitization mediated by either Ag or sIg-Fc gamma R interaction, PKC was downregulated by long term exposure to 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate or inhibited by exposure of cells to staurosporine. The PKC down-regulated and inhibited cells underwent similar Ag- and Fc gamma R-dependent desensitization compared to cells containing active PKC. Taken together, these data indicate that Ag-induced desensitization of B cell signaling likely involves an event(s) that occurs either upstream or independent of Ag-induced elevations in [Ca2+]i and PKC activation. 相似文献

We have investigated the role of protein tyrosine phosphorylation in transmembrane signaling via the IgG receptors Fc gamma RI and Fc gamma RII in the human monocytic cell line THP-1. Fc gamma RI and Fc gamma RII were selectively engaged using the anti-Fc gamma RI mAb 197 (IgG2a) and the anti-Fc gamma RII mAb IV.3 (IgG2b). Addition to cells of mAb 197, but not addition of IgG2a mAb of irrelevant specificity, resulted in the rapid induction of cytoplasmic protein tyrosine phosphorylation as assessed by antiphosphotyrosine immunoblotting. A similar pattern of tyrosine phosphorylation was induced by mAb IV.3, but not by control IgG2b mAb. The induction of tyrosine phosphorylation by anti-Fc gamma R mAb was not dependent on antibody Fc region-FcR interactions, because tyrosine phosphorylation was also induced by cross-linked anti-Fc gamma RI F(ab')2 fragments and by cross-linked anti-Fc gamma RII Fab fragments. To investigate the relationship of Fc gamma R-induced tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of phospholipase C, which is known to follow Fc gamma R engagement, we assessed the effect of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor herbimycin A on Fc gamma R-induced Ca2+ flux. Herbimycin A strongly inhibited cellular Ca2+ flux induced by mAb 197, but did not inhibit Ca2+ flux induced by aluminum fluoride, suggesting that tyrosine phosphorylation may be important in regulating Fc gamma R-mediated activation of phospholipase C. Consistent with this, mAb 197 induced rapid phosphorylation of the gamma-1 isoform of phospholipase C. Finally, herbimycin A strongly inhibited the induction of TNF-alpha mRNA accumulation by Fc gamma R cross-linking. These results suggest that protein tyrosine phosphorylation may play an important role in the activation of phospholipase C and in the induction of monokine gene expression that follows engagement of Fc gamma R in human monocytes. 相似文献

Subpopulations of normal adult murine splenic B cells and a panel of murine B cell tumors were examined for their ability to bind murine IgM specifically. By using two-color flow cytometric analyses, we have demonstrated that 90 to 95% of surface (s)IgD+ B cells express surface membrane receptors for IgM (Fc mu R). The binding of pentameric murine IgM to splenocyte Fc mu R was IgM-specific since it was totally inhibited by other polymeric IgM proteins, but not by Ig of other H chain classes or by mAb specific for the murine IgG or IgE FcR. Binding of IgM to splenic cells was saturable. Fc mu R were co-expressed with the Fc gamma R as well as the Fc epsilon R on the majority of splenic B cells. Minor populations of splenic mononuclear cells expressed only an Fc mu R, Fc gamma R or Fc epsilon R. In a survey of B tumor cell lines representing different stages of B cell development, we observed that the Fc mu R was expressed on pre-B cell lines and that Fc mu R detection was maximal on immature B cell lines that expressed sIgM and low amounts of sIgD and Ia. Fc mu R were not detected on cell lines that had switched from sIgM to the expression of another sIg, or on plasmacytomas and hybridomas. The studies with normal splenocytes establish that the majority of sIgD+ B lymphocytes in adult BALB/c mice express surface membrane receptors that specifically bind IgM. The studies with B lineage tumor cells suggest that the expression of Fc mu R on B cells is developmentally regulated and that the pattern of expression exhibited by Fc mu R during B cell ontogeny differs from the patterns that have been previously found for IgG and IgE FcR. These observations raise the possibility that Fc mu R might have a functional significance in some aspect of B cell maturation and activation. By using a family of IgM H chain constant region domain deletional mutants, we have further demonstrated that, like the T cell Fc mu R, the B cell Fc mu R also requires a C mu 3 domain for binding to occur, raising the possibility that the T and B cell Fc mu R in mice may be structurally related molecules. 相似文献

The B lymphocyte surface membrane receptors IgD (sigD) and Fc IgG receptors (Fc gamma R) were evaluated for interactions by means of immunofluorescence. Ligand-(F(ab')2 anti-delta) induced capping of sIgD resulted in co-capping of Fc gamma R if the latter were occupied during the capping process by soluble antigen-antibody complexes (which themselves provided insufficient cross-linking to result in capping), but not if the Fc gamma R were occupied by monomeric IgG or unoccupied. Capping of Fc gamma R by highly cross-linked complexes did not cause co-capping of sIgD occupied by monomeric F(ab') anti-delta. The interaction between sIgD and Fc gamma R was specific in that cross-reactions between ligands were excluded and ligand-induced capping of sIgD did not cause co-capping of ligand-occupied sIgM or I-A antigens. The sIgD-Fc gamma R interaction occurred on only approximately 60% of B lymphocytes, and this B cell subpopulation did not correlate with other B cell subpopulations (CBA/N strain B cells and B cells bearing either large or small amounts of sIgD). The sIgD-Fc gamma R interaction differed from the sIgM-Fc gamma R interaction in that co-redistribution of the Fc gamma R was occupied by monomeric IgG and involved nearly all B lymphocytes. The qualitative and quantitative differences between the sIgD-Fc gamma R and sIgM-Fc gamma R interactions suggest a mechanism whereby the two antigen receptors could provide different signals to the B lymphocyte. 相似文献

Cross-linking of Fc gamma R on human monocytes with human IgG has been shown to induce secretion of the inflammatory and immunoregulatory cytokine TNF. In the present study we examined the role of both constitutively expressed monocyte Fc gamma R, the 72-kDa high affinity Fc gamma R (Fc gamma RI), and the 40-kDa low affinity receptor (Fc gamma RII), in the induction of TNF secretion. On the basis of preferential binding of the Fc moiety of murine mAb of different isotype, Fc gamma RI and Fc gamma RII were selectively cross-linked by using either solid-phase murine (m)IgG2a, or solid-phase mIgG1, respectively. On freshly isolated, untreated monocytes only cross-linking of Fc gamma RI with solid-phase mIgG2a induced TNF secretion. The interaction between Fc gamma RII and mIgG1 could be enhanced by treatment of monocytes with proteases or with the desialylating enzyme neuraminidase. After treatment of monocytes with these enzymes, TNF secretion was effectively induced by solid-phase mIgG1, apparently through cross-linking of Fc gamma RII. However, mIgG1-induced TNF secretion differed between protease-treated monocytes from high responder individuals and monocytes from low responder individuals, TNF secretion being considerably less in the latter population. Protease-treated monocytes and mononuclear cells from individuals with an inherited defect in cell membrane expression of Fc gamma RI were induced to secrete TNF by solid-phase human IgG, confirming the capacity of Fc gamma RII to induce TNF secretion. It was not possible to induce TNF secretion by cross-linking Fc gamma RI or Fc gamma RII with anti-Fc gamma R mAb and soluble or solid-phase anti-mIgG, indicating that high affinity Fc-Fc gamma R interactions are necessary to induce release of this cytokine. 相似文献

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Fc receptors play a critical role in linking IgG antibody-mediated immune responses with cellular effector functions. A high resolution map of the binding site on human IgG1 for human Fc gamma RI, Fc gamma RIIA, Fc gamma RIIB, Fc gamma RIIIA, and FcRn receptors has been determined. A common set of IgG1 residues is involved in binding to all Fc gamma R; Fc gamma RII and Fc gamma RIII also utilize residues outside this common set. In addition to residues which, when altered, abrogated binding to one or more of the receptors, several residues were found that improved binding only to specific receptors or simultaneously improved binding to one type of receptor and reduced binding to another type. Select IgG1 variants with improved binding to Fc gamma RIIIA exhibited up to 100% enhancement in antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity using human effector cells; these variants included changes at residues not found at the binding interface in the IgG/Fc gamma RIIIA co-crystal structure (Sondermann, P., Huber, R., Oosthuizen, V., and Jacob, U. (2000) Nature 406, 267-273). These engineered antibodies may have important implications for improving antibody therapeutic efficacy. 相似文献

The monoclonal antibody KuFc79 binds to a determinant on the Fc receptors (Fc gamma R) of human leukocytes. We examined the biologic effects of the interaction of this antibody with Fc gamma R on human neutrophils (PMNL). The univalent Fab fragment of KuFc79 inhibits the formation of rosettes with IgG-sensitized sheep erythrocytes by as much as 91.7%. In other experiments in which PMNL were washed after exposure to Fab of KuFc79, phagocytosis of IgG-sensitized sheep erythrocytes was inhibited by 36%. Fab fragments of other mouse IgG2b monoclonal proteins did not have these effects. When PMNL are exposed to coverslips coated with univalent Fab fragments of this antibody, the Fc gamma R are removed from the surface of the PMNL. Under these conditions, rosetting could be inhibited by 85.4%. We examined cross-linking of receptor bound monoclonal antibody or its Fab fragment by either Protein A or F(ab')2 of an anti-mouse Ig. As much as 31.7% of beta-glucuronidase, a marker for lysosomal enzymes, is specifically released by cross-linking the Fc gamma R on PMNL. The generation of O2- is also induced by specifically cross-linking Fc gamma R with Fab and anti-Fab. The data constitute the first formal demonstration that cross-linking of Fc gamma R on PMNL leads to enzyme release and superoxide generation. 相似文献

C-reactive protein receptors on the human monocytic cell line U-937. Evidence for additional binding to Fc gamma RI. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute-phase protein that binds to components of damage tissue, activates C, and stimulates phagocytic cells. CRP binding to receptors on monocytic and polymorphonuclear phagocytes has been shown. Recently, CRP-binding proteins of 38 to 40 kDa and 57 to 60 kDa have been identified on the human promonocyte cell line U-937 and the mouse macrophage cell line PU5 1.8, respectively. However, analysis of CRP binding to these cells and to peripheral blood leukocytes suggests that additional CRP receptor sites may be present. Because many studies have shown interactions between CRP binding and IgG binding to leukocytes, we have examined further the CRP binding sites on U-937 cells and determined their relationship to the FcR for IgG (Fc gamma R) expressed on these cells. Our results demonstrate specific saturable binding of CRP to peripheral blood monocytes and U-937 cells, which is readily inhibited by aggregated IgG. Monomeric IgG, which binds specifically to Fc gamma RI, inhibited a maximum of 20% of CRP binding to these cells. mAb 197 and mAb IV.3, which block IgG binding to Fc gamma RI and Fc gamma RII, respectively, failed to inhibit CRP binding to U-937 cells. Two CRP-binding molecules were identified by precipitation of lysates from surface-labeled U-937 cells and cross-linking experiments. One of these had a molecular mass of 43 to 45 kDa, similar to the molecule previously described as the CRPR on U-937 cells. The other had the same mobility by SDS-PAGE as Fc gamma RI. The identity of this protein with Fc gamma RI was confirmed by the ability of both IgG-Sepharose and CRP-Sepharose to preclear the protein from cell lysates and by inhibition of binding to both IgG-Sepharose and CRP-Sepharose by anti-Fc gamma RI mAb 197. 相似文献

Mouse B cells are stimulated to proliferate by Fab'2 fragments of rabbit anti-mouse Ig antibodies. Proliferation is inhibited, however, in the presence of IgG anti-mouse Ig. We have previously shown that this inhibition is mediated by binding of the IgG anti-Ig to receptors for Fc gamma R on B cells. This report describes conditions under which IgG anti-mu or anti-delta will induce proliferation despite Fc gamma R engagement. Culture supernatants of Con A-stimulated, Il-4-secreting Th cell lines, but not of Il-2-secreting Th cell lines, will co-stimulate with IgG anti-Ig to induce small B cells to incorporate [3H]TdR. This co-mitogenic activity is inhibitable by anti-IL-4 antibodies and can also be induced by Il-4 affinity purified from the T cell supernatants or by supernatants containing rIl-4. B cells precultured with Il-4 for 18 h, while still expressing normal levels of Fc gamma R, also proliferate to IgG anti-Ig. We have previously shown that Fc gamma R-mIg cross-linking will inhibit mIg-dependent increases in c-myc mRNA levels. We investigated whether Il-4 allows B cells to respond to IgG anti-Ig by elevating c-myc. The data show that Il-4 has little effect on c-myc mRNA levels in either IgG or Fab'2 anti-Ig-containing cultures. 相似文献

A high activatory/inhibitory FcγR binding ratio is critical for the activity of mAb such as rituximab and alemtuzumab that attack cancer cells directly and eliminate them by recruiting immune effectors. Optimal FcγR binding profiles of other anti-cancer mAb, such as immunostimulatory mAb that stimulate or block immune receptors, are less clear. In this study, we analyzed the importance of isotype and FcγR interactions in controlling the agonistic activity of the anti-mouse CD40 mAb 3/23. Mouse IgG1 (m1) and IgG2a (m2a) variants of the parental 3/23 (rat IgG2a) were engineered and used to promote humoral and cellular responses against OVA. The mouse IgG1 3/23 was highly agonistic and outperformed the parental Ab when promoting Ab (10-100-fold) and T cell (OTI and OTII) responses (2- to >10-fold). In contrast, m2a was almost completely inactive. Studies in FcγR knockout mice demonstrated a critical role for the inhibitory FcγRIIB in 3/23 activity, whereas activatory FcγR (FcγRI, -III, and -IV) was dispensable. In vitro experiments established that the stimulatory effect of FcγRIIB was mediated through Ab cross-linking delivered in trans between neighboring cells and did not require intracellular signaling. Intriguingly, activatory FcγR provided effective cross-linking of 3/23 m2a in vitro, suggesting the critical role of FcγRIIB in vivo reflects its cellular distribution and bioavailability as much as its affinity for a particular Ab isotype. In conclusion, we demonstrate an essential cross-linking role for the inhibitory FcγRIIB in anti-CD40 immunostimulatory activity and suggest that isotype will be an important issue when optimizing reagents for clinical use. 相似文献

Fc receptors and immunoglobulin binding factors 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Receptors for the Fc portion of Ig (Fc receptors, FcR) are found on all cell types of the immune system. Three types of FcR react with IgG: Fc gamma RI is a high-affinity receptor binding IgG monomers whereas Fc gamma RII and Fc gamma RIII are low-affinity receptors binding IgG immune complexes; the three types of Fc gamma R are members of the Ig superfamily. Two FcR react with IgE:Fc epsilon RI is a multichain receptor binding IgE with high affinity; it is composed of an IgE-binding alpha chain, homologous to Fc gamma RIII, and of gamma and beta chains that are necessary for receptor expression and signal transduction. The low-affinity Fc epsilon RII is the only FcR described so far that is not a member of the Ig superfamily but resembles animal lectins; it is composed of a transmembrane chain with an intracytoplasmic NH2 terminus. Fc alpha R has homology with Fc gamma R and is a member of the Ig superfamily. Receptors for IgM and IgD are not characterized yet. Finally, Ig transport is made by FcR-like molecules such as the poly-Ig receptor or an MHC-like receptor found on neonatal intestine. A remarkable property of most FcR is the fact that they are released in cell supernatants and circulate in biological fluids as immunoglobulin binding factors (IBF) generated either by cleavage at the cell membrane or by splicing of FcR transmembrane exon. Immunoglobulin binding factors may interfere with Ig-mediated functions and have direct immunoregulatory activities. Involvement of FcR or IBF has been postulated in several diseases, and monoclonal antibodies to FcR are beginning to be used in therapeutics, particularly to target cytotoxic effector lymphocytes and monocytes to tumor cells. 相似文献

Fc gamma RI and Fc gamma RII on monocytes and granulocytes are cytotoxic trigger molecules for tumor cells 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
As part of an effort to define the cytotoxic trigger molecules on human myeloid cells, the ability of the different Fc receptors for IgG (Fc gamma R) to mediate killing of tumor cell lines by monocytes and granulocytes was examined. This was accomplished by studying cytolysis of hybridoma cell (HC) targets bearing surface antibody directed toward the different Fc gamma R. The HC line, HC IV.3A, which bears Ig directed to the low affinity Fc gamma R (Fc gamma RII) on monocytes and neutrophils was lysed by human monocytes. The extent of lysis of HC IV.3A was approximately equal to that of anti-Fc gamma RI (the high affinity Fc gamma R on human monocytes) bearing HC lines (HC 32.2A and HC 62A) and was not augmented by treatment of the monocytes with interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). In contrast, neutrophils lysed HC IV.3A and HC 32.2A only after activation with IFN-gamma. Since Fc gamma RI is not detectable on untreated neutrophils and is induced by IFN-gamma on these cells, lysis of HC 32.2A by IFN-gamma-activated neutrophils correlated with receptor induction. On the other hand, Fc gamma RII was present at equal levels on untreated and IFN-gamma-treated neutrophils, but only IFN-gamma-treated neutrophils mediated cytotoxicity via Fc gamma RII. In this case, enhanced killing appeared to be due to events other than an increase in Fc gamma RII number. Neither untreated nor IFN-gamma-treated neutrophils mediated the lysis of the anti-Fc gamma RIII bearing HC 3G8A. Thus, binding to the tumor target via this Fc receptor does not lead to lysis and may initiate signals distinct from those triggered through Fc gamma RI or Fc gamma RII. Surprisingly, HC bearing high amounts of mouse IgG1 antibody of irrelevant specificity were also lysed by monocytes. This lysis was blocked by soluble IV.3 antibody and thus appeared to be due to binding of the Fc portion of the surface Ig to Fc gamma RII on monocytes. Furthermore, monocytes from donors with a form of Fc gamma RII incapable of binding aggregated mouse IgG1 did not lyse these HC, but displayed normal lysis of HC IV.3, demonstrating that this structurally different Fc gamma RII remained a functional trigger molecule. Overall, these studies have demonstrated the specificity of Fc receptors in triggering monocyte- and granulocyte-mediated antibody-dependent tumor cell killing and have begun to dissect functional similarities and differences among the three defined Fc gamma R on human myeloid cells. 相似文献

Prostaglandin E2-dependent induction of B cell unresponsiveness. Role of surface Ig and Fc receptors 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Previously, we demonstrated that two signals were required for accessory cells to induce B cell unresponsiveness: tolerogenic Ig and PG. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether PGE2, in an accessory cellfree system, promoted fluorescein-specific B cell unresponsiveness in conjunction with ligands which bound to surface Ig (sIg) and/or FcR. Several conditions were found whereby PGE2 was obligatory for unresponsiveness. In the presence of aggregated, but not monomeric non-Ig fluorescein-Ag, direct plaque-forming cell responses were reduced by 60%. In contrast, engagement of the B cell FcR by aggregated IgG2b or by the 2.4G2 anti-FcR mAb failed to induce unresponsiveness, even when PGE2 was present. These data suggested that PGE2 could promote sIg-mediated negative signaling. A second condition where PGE2 promoted unresponsiveness occurred when sIg and FcR were simultaneously engaged by monomeric ligands. However, when sIg and FcR were cross-linked, PGE2-independent B cell unresponsiveness occurred. Interestingly, when subinhibitory doses of cross-linking agents were used, PGE2 dependent negative signaling resulted. PGE2 can thereby promote B cell unresponsiveness in three different situations. First, when sIg is extensively cross-linked by aggregated antigens or those with repeating determinants. Second, when sIg is engaged by monomeric antigen and when the B cell FcR is also occupied. Third, under conditions where B cell sIg and FcR are inadequately cross-linked. These situations can occur in vivo when macrophages in the B cell microenvironment (i.e., follicles) secrete PGE2 and when Ag with repeating epitopes, or immune complexes capable of binding B cell sIg and FcR are present. Thus, PGE2 can serve as an important regulatory element in limiting antibody formation. 相似文献

Macrophage receptors for the Fc portion of IgG play an important role in host defense, inflammation, and the pathophysiology of autoimmune disorders. We studied one important function of Fc gamma receptors--the ability to bind IgG ligand. Direct binding experiments analyzed by nonlinear regression were consistent with monomeric and trimeric IgG binding to a single class of receptors. Indirect binding experiments were also consistent with this interpretation and revealed that both IgG ligands completely inhibited the binding of the other. In addition, we used an anti-Fc gamma RII monoclonal antibody known to compete for the Fc gamma RII ligand binding site and known to inhibit IgG trimer binding to other cells. At concentrations of antibody which saturated all Fc gamma RII sites, no inhibition of IgG trimer binding to U-937 was observed. This was evident despite the observation that the numbers of Fc gamma RI and Fc gamma RII, determined by equilibrium binding of monomeric IgG and anti-Fc gamma RII antibody, respectively, were similar on U-937. Monoclonal antibodies were used to compare the expression and modulation of Fc gamma receptor proteins with their ability to bind monomeric and trimeric IgG ligands. Dexamethasone and gamma-interferon regulated U-937 Fc gamma RI protein expression and IgG ligand binding to a similar degree. In contrast, the expression of Fc gamma RII was not altered by dexamethasone. Interferon-gamma primarily stimulated Fc gamma RI, as determined both by reactivity with monoclonal antibody (227 +/- 26%) and by monomeric IgG ligand binding (350 +/- 151%). In addition, dexamethasone inhibited by 33% the gamma-interferon effect on Fc gamma RI protein and by 56% the effect on Fc gamma RI binding of monomeric IgG. Preincubation of U-937 with anti-Fc gamma RII antibody did not alter the effect of dexamethasone or gamma-interferon on IgG trimer binding. These data indicate that on U-937 cells Fc gamma RII does not function in the recognition of small molecular weight immune complexes and that Fc gamma RI is the Fc gamma receptor responsible for the binding of both monomeric and trimeric human IgG. Furthermore, Fc gamma RI is the major Fc gamma receptor on U-937 that is modulated by both gamma-interferon and glucocorticoids. 相似文献

The specificity of the Fc gamma receptors on the X63.Ag8.653 nonproducing myeloma cell line has been examined for binding to IgG1-, IgG2a-, and IgG2b-containing antigen-antibody complexes. Complexes containing each of these subclasses bind, and the binding of each is inhibited by the others. Trypsin treatment did not inhibit the binding of any of these subclasses. Furthermore, the monoclonal anti-Fc receptor antibody 2.4G2 inhibits the binding of all three subclasses. These results, together with those of other investigators, suggest that there is a single FcR for IgG1, IgG2a, and IgG2b on mouse B cells which differs in its specificity from the macrophage Fc gamma R. This is confirmed by the fact that a mutant IgG2b myeloma protein which binds to the macrophage Fc gamma 1/gamma 2b receptor does not bind to the Fc gamma R on X63.Ag8.653. 相似文献

Guinea pig B cells were found to proliferate when co-stimulated with F(ab')2 of rabbit anti-guinea pig IgM and human 12-kDa B cell growth factor (BCGF), though the proliferation did not occur with the replacement of the F(ab')2 by its parent IgG antibody. In addition, the intact antibody inhibited the proliferation induced by F(ab')2 of anti-IgM and BCGF. Because both two distinct types of FcR for IgG on the B cells, one specific for IgG2 (Fc gamma 2R) and the other for both IgG2 and IgG1 (Fc gamma 1/gamma 2R), can bind rabbit IgG, we determined whether they participate in the inhibition of the B cell proliferation by intact anti-guinea pig IgM antibody. Blocking Fc gamma 1/gamma 2R by F(ab')2 of anti-Fc gamma 1/gamma 2R mAb significantly reversed the inhibitory effect of intact anti-IgM antibody. F(ab')2 of anti-Fc gamma 2R mAb, however, was not effective. Furthermore, guinea pig IgG1 and IgG2 anti-rabbit IgG antibodies suppressed similarly the B cell proliferation induced by F(ab')2 of rabbit anti-IgM and BCGF. These results show that between these two types of Fc gamma R on B cells, Fc gamma 1/gamma 2R alone is involved in the regulation of anti-IgM and BCGF-induced B cell proliferation, and inhibits the response when cross-linked to the surface IgM. 相似文献
