Differential Modulation of Stimulatory and Inhibitory Fcγ Receptors on Human Monocytes by Th1 and Th2 Cytokines

Abstract: Immune complex-mediated inflammatory responses are initiated by FcγR on phagocytes. We report in this study that an inhibitory receptor, FcγRIIb2, is expressed on circulating human monocytes, and when co-cross-linked with stimulatory FcγR it down-regulates effector function. FcγRIIb2 expression is increased by IL-4 and decreased by IFN-γ, in contrast to the activating receptor, FcγRIIa, which is increased by IFN-γ and decreased by IL-4. Thus, Th1 and Th2 cytokines differentially regulate the opposing FcγR syst… Show more

“…Indeed, IVIG was not effective in protecting FcgRIIb 2/2 mice from NTN, indicating that this is an important mechanism of action for IVIG (20). Th2 cytokines, such as IL-4, are known to increase myeloid expression of FcgRIIb (21). Recently, it has been determined that the sialylated IgG component of human IVIG binds to a lectin receptor dendritic cell-specific intracellular adhesion molecule 3-grabbing nonintegrin on dendritic cells, leading to the secretion of IL-33, which upregulates IL-4 secretion by basophils and leads to the increased expression of FcgRIIb on myeloid cells (22).…”

“…For example, upon coligation of Fc␥RIIb with the BCR by IgG immune complexes, Fc␥RIIb recruits and activates the SHIP and negatively regulates B cell activation and proliferation, thereby providing a critical mechanism for the feedback inhibition of IgG production (4). On monocytes and macrophages, Fc␥RIIb down-regulates Fc␥RIIa (CD32A)-and Fc␥RIIIa (CD16A)-mediated phagocytosis when coligated with those activating receptors (2,5,6). Fc␥RIIb also down-modulates mast cell activation by the high-affinity IgE FcR (7,8).…”
