Abstract

Four mouse anti-human Fc gamma RII (CD32) (6C4, 2B2, 3D3, 93.4) (IgG1, kappa) and one anti-human Fc gamma RIII (CD16) (7.5.4) IgG1, kappa) MAbs were raised. An in vitro switch variant, 7.5.4Sw50 (IgG2b, kappa), was also derived from the 7.5.4 MAb. 6C4, 2B2, and 3D3 MAbs bind both Fc gamma RIIa and Fc gamma RIIb isoforms. Two of them (6C4 and 2B2 MAbs) allow a complete blockade of the binding of immune complexes to Fc gamma RII. All three MAbs immunoprecipitate the receptor and bind both its glycosylated and nonglycosylated forms. The fourth anti Fc gamma RII MAb, 93.4, directed against the intracellular region of Fc gamma RIIa1/2, allows its detection by Western blotting only when it is not phosphorylated. The 7.5.4 MAb binds both Fc gamma RIIIa and Fc gamma RIIIb, can be used in Western blotting and does not inhibit aggregated IgG binding. ELISA using IV.3 (anti-Fc gamma RIIa1/2)/6C4 and 3G8 (anti-Fc gamma RIIIa/b)/7.5.4Sw50 MAb pairs make it possible to detect soluble Fc gamma RIIa1/2 and Fc gamma RIII, with a sensitivity of 200 pg/mL and 1 ng/mL, respectively. Surface plasmon resonance analyses indicated that the KD of two of the three anti-Fc gamma RII and of the anti-Fc gamma RIII are in the same order of magnitude (6C4: 0.78 nM, 2B2: 0.28 nM, 7.5.4: 0.47 nM). The anti-Fc gamma RII 3D3 MAb exhibits an off-rate constant higher than the 6C4 and 2B2 MAbs and a KD of 2.19 nM.
