FcγRIIIa-158V/F Polymorphism Influences the Binding of IgG by Natural Killer Cell FcγRIIIa, Independently of the FcγRIIIa-48L/R/H Phenotype

TL;DR: Differences in IgG binding among the three Fc gammaRIIIa-48L/R/H isoforms are a consequence of the linked, biallelic Fc Gamma receptor IIIa-158V/F polymorphism at amino-acid position 158.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complement and immunoglobulins stimulate superoxide production by human leukocytes independently of phagocytosis.

TL;DR: Since enhanced O-2 production was stimulated by immune reactants in the absence of phagocytosis, the O-.2 generating system is very likely associated with the external plasma membrane of the polymorphonuclear leukocyte.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neutrophils: Between host defence, immune modulation, and tissue injury

TL;DR: Current understanding of neutrophils in host-pathogen interactions and disease involvement is summarized, illustrating the versatility and plasticity of the neutrophil, moving between host defence, immune modulation, and tissue damage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human neutrophils lose their surface Fc gamma RIII and acquire Annexin V binding sites during apoptosis in vitro

TL;DR: The results indicate that soluble Fc gamma RIII in body fluids might be derived for a large part from neutrophils undergoing apoptosis in the tissues.
