Human epidermal Langerhans cells express the high affinity receptor for immunoglobulin E (Fc epsilon RI)
It has been suggested that epidermal Langerhans cells (LC) bearing immunoglobulin E (IgE) may be involved in the genesis of atopic disease. The identity of the IgE receptor(s) on LC remained unclear, although it represents a crucial point in understanding cellular events linked to the binding of allergens to LC via IgE. In this report, we demonstrate that epidermal LC express the high affinity ...
متن کاملExpression of functional high affinity immunoglobulin E receptors (Fc epsilon RI) on monocytes of atopic individuals
Suggestive evidence indicates that immunoglobulin E (IgE)-dependent activation of mononuclear phagocytes plays an important pathogenic role in allergic tissue inflammation. Prevailing opinion holds that low affinity IgE receptors are the relevant IgE-binding structures on monocytes/macrophages and that functional events occurring after cross-linking of membrane-bound IgE on these cells are medi...
متن کاملMast cells lacking the high affinity immunoglobulin E receptor are deficient in Fc epsilon RI gamma messenger RNA
A population of cells that express mast cell markers, including the membrane protein p161, but that lack expression of the high affinity IgE receptor, Fc epsilon RI, can be routinely grown from bone marrow. Ionomycin, but not IgE immune complexes, causes these cells to release serotonin and to express IL-3 and IL-13 mRNA, consistent with their being FC epsilon RI-deficient mast cells. These p16...
متن کاملHigh level of Fc epsilon receptor I-bindable immunoglobulin E in the tear fluid and increased immunoglobulin E-saturated cells in the giant papillae of vernal keratoconjunctivitis patients.
PURPOSE To investigate the concentrations of Fc epsilon receptor I (Fc epsilon RI)-bindable immunoglobulin E (IgE) in the tear fluid and the proportion of IgE-saturated cells among Fc epsilon RI-positive cells in giant papillae from vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) patients. METHODS The tear fluids and giant papillae were obtained from 8 VKC patients with their informed consent. To detect th...
متن کاملExpression of the Fc-receptor for IgE (Fc epsilon RII, CD23) on alveolar macrophages in extrinsic allergic alveolitis
Expression of the Fc receptor for IgE (Fc epsilon R) was analyzed on alveolar macrophages (AM) in 10 patients with extrinsic allergic alveolitis (EAA) compared with 10 patients with sarcoidosis and to 6 apparently healthy controls. By using the anti-Fc epsilon RII mAb M-L25 in immunocytochemistry experiments, we found that greater than 60% of AM in 10 of 10 patients with EAA were strongly posit...
