Description

There are 3 classes of receptors for the Fc region of IgG (FcγRs): FcγRI (CD64), FcγRII (CD32), and FcγRIII (CD16), each with multiple isoforms.  All these receptors are members of the Ig superfamily (IgSF) and they play important roles in the activation or inhibition of immune responses. FcγRI is a high-affinity receptor for IgG while both FcγRII and FcγRIII are low-affinity receptors that bind IgG in the form of immune complexes.  There are two genes for human FcγRIII: the FcγRIIIA (CD16A) gene that encodes a transmembrane receptor and the FcγRIIIB (CD16B) gene that encodes a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein. The extracellular domains (ECDs) of CD16A and CD16B share 97% amino acid sequence homology. Three allelic variants of CD16B, NA-1, NA-2, and SH, exist. Whereas CD16A is expressed on most effector cells of the immune system including macrophage, monocyte, NK cells, mast cells, eosinophils, dendritic cells and Langerhans cells, CD16B is selectively expressed in neutrophils and eosinophils. Signaling through CD16A results in oxidative burst, cytokine release and phagocytosis by macrophages, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity by natural killer cells and degranulation of mast cells. By contrast, CD16B is a decoy receptor that binds IgG in complexes without triggering activation. A soluble form of CD16B can be produced by proteolytic cleavage and circulates in plasma and other body fluids. Soluble CD16B interacts with complement receptors CR3 and CR4 on monocytes to induce the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
