Macrophages represent an important effector cell for Ab-mediated
tumor therapy. Previous studies have documented that cytokines can
influence Fc receptor (FcR) expression and function. In this study we
examined the tumoricidal activities of the type I receptors for IgG
(Fc
RI) and the IgA FcR (Fc
RI) on monocyte-derived macrophages
(MDM) cultured in the presence of IFN-
, M-CSF, or GM-CSF. Bispecific
Abs were used to target a Her2/neu breast carcinoma cell
line, SKBR-3, to Fc
RI or Fc
RI on MDM. Although Fc
RI and
Fc
RI share a common signaling pathway contingent on association with
the
-chain (FcR
subunit), a marked difference in their efficiency
in mediating tumoricidal functions was seen in response to specific
cytokines. M-CSF- and GM-CSF-treated MDM mediated efficient
phagocytosis of SKBR-3 cells by Fc
RI and Fc
RI; however,
IFN-
-treated MDM phagocytosed tumor cells only with the
Fc
RI-directed bispecific Abs. Similarly, IFN-
-cultured MDM lysed
tumor cells more efficiently via Fc
RI then by Fc
RI as measured in
Ab-dependent cellular cytotoxicity assays. Conversely, GM-CSF-treated
MDM mediated more efficient lysis of tumor cells via Fc
RI than
Fc
RI, while M-CSF-cultured MDM were relatively less efficient in
mediating Ab-dependent cellular cytotoxicity through either receptor.
With the exception of IFN-
-mediated enhancement of Fc
RI
expression and Fc
RI
-chain complexes, the regulation of Fc
RI-
or Fc
RI-mediated activity occurred without significant change in
either receptor expression or total complexes with
subunit. These
data suggest that the efficiency of Ab-mediated tumor therapy, which
depends on FcR effector cell functions, may be modified by the use of
specific cytokines.
