Cross-linking of B lymphocyte Fc gamma receptors and membrane immunoglobulin inhibits anti-immunoglobulin-induced blastogenesis
Abstract
The Fc portion of rabbit anti-mouse immunoglobulin (Ig) antibodies interferes with anti-Ig-induced B lymphocyte activation as measured by DNA synthesis on day 3 of culture or maturation to Ig-secreting cells in the presence of soluble helper factors on day 4 or 5. To investigate this Fc-dependent effect at an earlier stage in B cell activation, rabbit IgG anti-mouse mu-chain- or delta-chain-specific antibodies were compared with their F(ab')2 fragments for the ability to induce mouse B cells to undergo blast transformation, as defined by an increase in cell volume during the first 24 hr of culture. Both F(ab')2 anti-Ig reagents induce blast transformation, although F(ab')2 anti-mu antibodies induce a greater size change than F(ab')2 anti-delta antibodies. Whole anti-mu or anti-delta antibodies do not induce blast transformation; however, in the presence of a monoclonal anti-mouse Fc gamma receptor antibody that blocks IgG binding to Fc gamma receptors (Fc gamma R), whole anti-mu or anti-delta antibodies induce blast transformation as well as their F(ab')2 fragments. Because the anti-Fc gamma R antibody alone has no effect on blast transformation, it appears that the simultaneous binding of membrane IgM (or IgD) and Fc gamma R by whole anti-Ig antibodies prevents this early event in membrane Ig-induced B cell activation.
