Macrophage activation selectively enhances expression of Fc receptors for IgG2a
نویسندگان
چکیده
After infection with bacillus Calmette-Guérin, peritoneal macrophages (Mø) display enhanced expression of FcR for both monomeric and complexed IgG2a, but not IgG2b. Isotype specificity of FcR can be reversed on nonactivated Mø by immune lymphokines, and IgG2a immune complexes are more effective triggers of the respiratory burst in activated Mø. Selective enhancement of IgG2a FcR by Mø activation could account for efficacy of homologous ab in mediating cytotoxicity in some systems.

Binding of monomeric immunoglobulins to Fc receptors of mouse macrophages
The binding properties of surface receptors of immunoglobulins on mouse macrophages were studied with mouse myeloma proteins and normal peritoneal macrophages, thioglycollate-stimulated macrophages, and a macrophage cell line, P388D1. Primary cultures of mouse embryo fibroblasts served as controls. IgG2a proteins were bound strongly;IgG2b was bound weakly (one-twentieth as well as IgG2a);IgM, I...
متن کاملFunction and regulation of a murine macrophage-specific IgG Fc receptor, Fc gamma R-alpha
Ligand binding specificities of two cloned murine Fc gamma Rs (Fc gamma R-alpha, Fc gamma R-beta [9]) were determined by gene transfer into Fc gamma R negative cell lines. Both receptors were expressed as full-length molecules capable of IgG immune complex binding that was inhibitable by the mAb 2.4G2. The ligand binding profiles of these receptors were indistinguishable whereby both bound immu...
متن کاملCharacterization of a monoclonal antibody directed against mouse macrophage and lymphocyte Fc receptors
To investigate the antigenic relationship between the macrophage and lymphocyte Fc receptors (FcR), a monoclonal antibody capable of blocking mouse macrophage Fc receptors was selected. Hybrids were formed by fusing the P3U1 mouse myeloma and spleen cells from a rat immunized with the mouse macrophage-like cell lines J774 and P388D1. The Fab fragment of the monoclonal IgG secreted by clone 2.4G...
متن کاملA new Fc receptor on mouse macrophages binding IgG3
Monoclonal antibodies to sheep erythrocytes (SRBC) have proved useful in identifying two Fc receptors on mouse macrophages, one for IgG2a, and one for IgG1 and IgG2b. We have used monoclonal IgG3 anti-SRBC to identify a third Fc receptor on mouse macrophages which binds IgG3 uniquely. This receptor is present on primary resident and thioglycolate-induced peritoneal macrophages and on some macro...
متن کاملThe presence of two Fc receptors on mouse macrophages: evidence from a variant cell line and differential trypsin sensitivity
A stable variant of a clone of the P388D1 macrophage line was isolated using four cycles of treatment with mouse IgG2a-rabbit anti-kappa complexes and rabbit complement. The variant had the same Ka and about the same number of sites per cell for IgG2a as the parent line. However, the variant had 10% as many binding sites for rabbit IgG in soluble antigen-antibody complexes, and the affinity of ...
