The most abundant immunoglobulin isotype in serum is Immunoglobulin G (IgG), which is involved in many humoral immune responses, strongly interacting with effector molecules. The IgG subclass, allotype, and glycosylation pattern, among other factors, determine the interaction strength of the IgG-Fc domain with these Fc engaging molecules, and thereby the potential strength of their effector potential. The molecules responsible for the effector phase include the classical IgG-Fc receptors (FcγR), the neonatal Fc-receptor (FcRn), the Tripartite motif-containing protein 21 (TRIM21), the first component of the classical complement cascade (C1), and possibly, the Fc-receptor-like receptors (FcRL4/5). Here we provide an overview of the interactions of IgG with effector molecules and discuss how natural variation on the antibody and effector molecule side shapes the biological activities of antibodies. The increasing knowledge on the Fc-mediated effector functions of antibodies drives the development of better therapeutic antibodies for cancer immunotherapy or treatment of autoimmune diseases.

  • Delayed Onset of Autoreactive Antibody Production and M2
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Delayed onset of autoreactive antibody production and M2- skewed macrophages contribute to Received: 6 October 2017 Accepted: 9 January 2018 improved survival of TACI defcient Published: xx xx xxxx MRL-Fas/Lpr mouse Lunhua Liu1, Windy Rose Allman1, Adam Steven Coleman1, Kazuyo Takeda2, Tsai-Lien Lin3 & Mustafa Akkoyunlu1 Anti-B cell activating factor belonging to TNF-family (BAFF) antibody therapy is indicated for the treatment of patients with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We hypothesized that the BAFF receptor, transmembrane activator and calcium-modulator and cyclophilin interactor (TACI) may be responsible for the generation of antibody secreting plasma cells in SLE. To test this hypothesis, we generated TACI defcient MRL-Fas/Lpr (LPR-TACI−/−) mouse. TACI defciency resulted in improved survival of MRL-Fas/Lpr mice and delayed production of anti-dsDNA and anti-SAM/RNP antibodies. There was also a delay in the onset of proteinuria and the accumulation of IgG and infammatory macrophages (Mφs) in the glomeruli of young LPR-TACI−/− mice compared to wild-type mice. Underscoring the role of TACI in infuencing Mφ phenotype, the transfer of Mφs from 12-week-old LPR- TACI−/− mice to age-matched sick wild-type animals led to a decrease in proteinuria and improvement in kidney pathology. The fact that, in LPR-TACI−/− mouse a more pronounced delay was in IgM and IgG3 autoreactive antibody isotypes and the kinetics of follicular helper T (Tf) cell-development was comparable between the littermates suggest a role for TACI in T cell-independent autoantibody production in MRL-Fas/Lpr mouse prior to the onset of T cell-dependent antibody production.

Accepted 7 August, 2009 Complement receptor 1 (CR1) is a membrane protein mediating the transport of immune complexes (ICs) to phagocytes, and at least two polymorphisms on the CR1 gene are related to erythrocyte surface density of CR1 molecules, in turn related to the rate of IC clearance from circulation. The aim of the study was to explore whether the polymorphic sites of CR1 gene in exon 22 (His 1208 Arg), and exon 33 (Pro 1827 Arg), leading to amino acid change in the protein sequence are associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) susceptibility. To investigate this association, genomic DNA of 62 SLE patients and 76 healthy blood donors were genotyped by PCR-RFLP and direct sequencing. The CR1 analysis showed no significant association of the CR1 functional polymorphisms with SLE. However, the C/G genotype in Pro 1827 Arg polymorphism was significantly associated to nephritis and to the presence of cryoglobulins/ ICs compared to C/C and G/G genotypes (OR: 3.68, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.028 - 13.2; p = 0.038 and OR: 16.6, 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.92 - 31.1; p=0.0002, respectively).

  • Antibodies Rat Monoclonal Igg2b Antibody Against Mouse CD16/CD32, Unconjugated
    Anti-Mouse CD16/CD32 Antibody, Clone 2.4G2 Antibodies Rat monoclonal IgG2b antibody against mouse CD16/CD32, unconjugated Catalog #60161 1 mg 2 mg/mL #60161.1 500 μg 2 mg/mL #60161.2 100 μg 2 mg/mL Product Description The 2.4G2 antibody reacts with a shared epitope of Fc-gamma receptors CD16 (FcRIII) and CD32 (FcRII) in the mouse. CD16 and CD32 are low affinity receptors for the Fc portion of IgG, with CD32 having a higher affinity for IgG aggregates and immune complexes. CD16 and CD32 are expressed on B cells, monocytes, macrophages, NK cells, neutrophils, granulocytes, mast cells, and dendritic cells. The binding of immunoglobulins to Fc receptors is involved in multiple immunological functions, including phagocytosis, cytotoxocity, and the modulation of immune responses. The 2.4G2 antibody blocks the interaction between IgG and CD16 or CD32, and therefore is used as a pre-treatment to minimize non-specific binding of antibodies to FcR-bearing cells in applications such as flow cytometry, cell sorting, and immunofluorescence. Target Antigen Name: CD16/CD32 Alternative Names: FCGR2, FCGR3, FC Receptor, IGFR2, IGFR3, Ly-17 Gene ID: 14130/14131 Species Reactivity: Mouse Host Species: Rat (Sprague-Dawley) Clonality: Monoclonal Clone: 2.4G2 Isotype: IgG2b, kappa Immunogen: Mouse BALB/c macrophage J774 cell line Conjugate: Unconjugated Applications Verified: FC Reported: FA (Blocking), FC, IF, IP Special Applications: This formulation of the 2.4G2 antibody contains low endotoxin and no azide and may be used for in vivo studies in mice.

Therapeutic antibodies specific to cancer cell antigens are used to treat various malignancies. NK cells in turn kill antibody-bound tumor cells through a process known as antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). The ADCC response of NK cells can be modulated by changes in the antibody or Fc receptor. In this review, we detail the functions of Fc receptors in human NK cells and expand upon current research illustrating how engineering monoclonal antibodies and Fc receptors enhance NK cell-mediated ADCC for the treatment of cancer. Abstract: Tumor-targeting monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are the most widely used and characterized immunotherapy for hematologic and solid tumors. The significance of this therapy is their direct and indirect effects on tumor cells, facilitated by the antibody’s antigen-binding fragment (Fab) and fragment crystallizable region (Fc region), respectively. The Fab can modulate the function of cell surface markers on tumor cells in an agonistic or antagonistic manner, whereas the Fc region can be recognized by an Fc receptor (FcR) on leukocytes through which various effector functions, including antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), can be elicited.
