Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Nephrotoxic glomerulonephritis is induced by the administration of antibody against the glomerular basement membrane (GBM). We demonstrated previously that Fc receptors for immunoglobulin G (IgG) (FcgammaR) play crucial roles in the induction of accelerated nephrotoxic glomerulonephritis by using FcRgamma-deficient (-/-) mice. Since FcRgamma-/- mice lack the cell surface expression of two activating FcgammaRs, FcgammaRI and FcgammaRIII. The present study aims to identify the FcgammaR responsible for the induction of nephrotoxic glomerulonephritis. METHODS:Accelerated anti-GBM glomerulonephritis was induced in FcgammaRI-/-, FcgammaRIII-/-, and FcRgamma-/- mice by preimmunization with rabbit IgG followed by inoculation of rabbit anti-GBM antibody. Histologic analysis and immunostaining of renal sections were performed. RESULTS:FcgammaRI-/- mice as well as wild-type mice showed severe glomerulonephritis with hypernitremia by the administration of anti-GBM antibody. In contrast, FcgammaRIII-/- mice showed much milder renal involvement, similar to FcRgamma-/- mice. Histologically, FcgammaRI-/- mice showed intracapillary proliferation, glomerular thrombosis, and crescent formation, whereas FcgammaRIII-/- mice showed only glomerular hypercellular changes. The depositions of anti-GBM antibodies, autologous antibodies and complement C3 along the GBM were equally observed among all three FcR-/- mouse types by immunostaining. CONCLUSIONS:Accelerated nephrotoxic glomerulonephritis is induced predominantly through FcgammaRIII but not FcgammaRI.
