The mouse Fc
RI is one of the most fundamentally important FcRs. It participates in different stages of immunity, being a low affinity receptor for T-independent IgG3 and yet a high affinity receptor for IgG2a, the product of a Th1 immune response. However, analysis of this receptor has been difficult due largely to the failure to generate specific Abs to this FcR. We have made use of the polymorphic differences between BALB/c and NOD/Lt mice to generate mAb specific for the Fc
RI of BALB/c and the majority of in-bred mouse strains. Three different mAb were obtained that detected Fc
RI encoded by the more common Fcgr1a and Fcgr1b alleles, and although they identified different epitopes, none inhibited the binding of IgG to Fc
RI. When bound to Fc
RI, these mAb induced calcium mobilization upon cross-linking. Several novel observations were made of the cellular distribution of Fc
RI. Resting and IFN-
-induced macrophages expressed Fc
RI as well as mast cell lines. Both bone marrow-derived and freshly isolated dendritic cells from spleen and lymph nodes expressed Fc
RI. A class of DC, uniquely found in s.c. lymph nodes, expressed the highest level of Fc
RI and also high levels of MHC class II, DEC205, CD40, and CD86, with a low level of CD8
, corresponding to the phenotype for Langerhans-derived DC, which are highly active in Ag processing. Thus, in addition to any role in effector functions, Fc
RI on APC may act as a link between innate and adaptive immunities by binding and mediating the uptake of T-independent immune complexes for presentation, thereby assisting in the development of T-dependent immune responses.
