    Monocyte/macrophage Fc gamma RIII, unlike Fc gamma RIII on neutrophils, is not a phosphatidylinositol-linked protein (1990)
    American Society of Hematology
    Details
    Publication Date: 1990-06-15
    Description: The low affinity IgG Fc receptor, Fc gamma RIII, expressed on circulating neutrophils, natural killer (NK) cells, and tissue macrophages, is involved in effector functions such as cytotoxicity and immune complex clearance by these cells. While Fc gamma RIII is reported to be a phosphatidylinositol (PI)-linked, rather than peptide- linked, protein on neutrophils and NK cells, its membrane linkage in macrophages has not been studied. We examined the sensitivity of Fc gamma RIII to cleavage by PI-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) in cultured monocytes and alveolar tissue macrophages and report that this receptor is not PI-linked on these cells. We also observed normal levels of Fc gamma RIII on cultured monocytes of a patient with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, a disease in which PI-linked proteins are deficient. The results suggest that Fc gamma RIII occurs solely in a transmembrane form in cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage. In addition, we studied Fc gamma RIII on a cloned NK cell line and found it to be resistant to the effects of PI-PLC under conditions that cleaved Fc gamma RIII on neutrophils. Taken together, our results provide evidence for a distinct form of Fc gamma RIII that differs from the neutrophil receptor in its structure and, possibly, in its function.

    Monocyte Fc gamma receptor recognition of cell-bound and aggregated IgG (1989)
    American Society of Hematology
    Details
    Publication Date: 1989-08-15
    Description: Monocyte and macrophage Fc gamma receptors are important components in the recognition of IgG-coated cells and IgG-containing immune complexes. Two proteins have been identified on human peripheral blood monocytes that can function as Fc gamma receptors, Fc gamma RI (70 Kd) and Fc gamma RII (40 Kd). We studied the role of Fc gamma RI and Fc gamma RII on human monocytes by examining their binding of IgG- sensitized cells (human IgG anti-D-coated RBCs and rabbit IgG- sensitized sheep RBCs) and their binding of human trimeric IgG. To examine the function of monocyte Fc gamma RII, we used an anti-Fc gamma RII monoclonal antibody (MoAb) that competes for the Fc gamma RII ligand binding site. Preincubation of monocytes with saturating concentrations of anti-Fc gamma RII MoAb did not alter the recognition of IgG (anti-D)-sensitized human RBCs by monocytes. Furthermore, ligand- binding studies demonstrated that anti-Fc gamma RII antibody altered neither the number nor the affinity of monocyte-binding sites for human IgG trimer. Anti-Fc gamma RII inhibited monocyte binding of rabbit IgG- sensitized sheep RBCs, but only at low ionic strength or temperature when increased numbers of monocyte Fc gamma RII were expressed. At low ionic strength and 4 degrees C, anti-Fc gamma RII also partially inhibited monocyte binding of human trimeric IgG. Thus, monocyte Fc gamma RII does not appear to recognize IgG-sensitized RBCs or trimeric IgG at physiologic temperatures and ionic strength. The data suggest that Fc gamma RI is the primary Fc gamma receptor on monocytes involved in the binding of IgG (anti-D)-sensitized erythrocytes and low mol wt complexes of IgG.
