Popis: | Flow cytometry was used to investigate two functional parameters of human natural-killer (NK) cell-mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC): (i) the frequency of NK cells which formed conjugates (NKC) with autologous monoclonal antibody (mAb)-coated lymphocyte target cells, a measure of the avidity of CD16-dependent cell-cell adhesion, and (ii) the rise in the intracellular concentration of ionized calcium ([Ca2+]i) elicited in NKC by contact with target cells, a measure of CD16-dependent NK cell activation. For each of four rat IgG2b mAb directed against target cell antigens CDw52, CD5, CD45, and class I HLA, there existed quantitatively similar relationships between ADCC and rise in NKC[Ca2+]i but significant inter-mAb differences with respect to the ADCC vs the NKC frequency relationship. Cytolytic efficiencies of mAb appeared to be determined at the level of the NK cell, dependent upon CD16 and LFA-1, but restricted with respect to quantitative levels of NKC[Ca2+]i. In concert with this notion, targets coated with an IgG1 isotype-switch variant alpha CDw52 mAb promoted significant conjugate formation but failed to elicit a rise in NKC[Ca2+]i or ADCC. Thus, Fc regions of antibodies make contacts with NK cell CD16 which may strengthen cell-cell adhesion without eliciting an activation stimulus, a finding which supports a complexity of CD16 functional regulation of probable significance in the clinical consequences of antibody responses or therapeutic mAb manipulations. |
