While CD32A and CD32C are involved in activating cellular responses, CD32B is inhibitory.<ref name=":1" /> == Structure and signaling == CD32 is a [[type I transmembrane protein]] with a helical transmembrane region.<ref name=":0" /> Whereas the extracellular region consists of three [[immunoglobulin domain]]s (roughly 100 a.a. in length), the cytosolic region varies by subtype. CD32A and CD32C possess an [[immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif]] (ITAM), while CD32B has an [[immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif]] (ITIM). Both motif types rely upon interactions with [[SH2 domain|SH2 domain-containing proteins]] to transduce signals upon binding to an IgG immune complex. When an ITIM is [[Phosphorylation|phosphorylated]], it activates effector proteins that dephosphorylate the downstream targets of the ITAM signal cascade, such as [[Map kinase|MAP kinases]].<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" /> CD32 receptors bind to the [[Antibody|lower hinge region]] of IgG via an extracellular domain. Additionally, all CD32 subtypes readily bind [[IgG1]] and [[IgG3]] immune complexes, but differ in their binding affinities for [[IgG2]] and [[IgG4]]. CD32A binds IgG2 immune complexes, but not IgG4. CD32B and CD32C bind IgG4 immune complexes, but not IgG2. The usage of [[Monoclonal antibody|monoclonal antibodies]] can distinguish between CD32A and CD32B;<ref name="pmid17386079">{{cite journal | vauthors = Veri MC, Gorlatov S, Li H, Burke S, Johnson S, Stavenhagen J, Stein KE, Bonvini E, Koenig S | display-authors = 6 | title = Monoclonal antibodies capable of discriminating the human inhibitory Fcgamma-receptor IIB (CD32B) from the activating Fcgamma-receptor IIA (CD32A): biochemical, biological and functional characterization | journal = Immunology | volume = 121 | issue = 3 | pages = 392–404 | date = July 2007 | pmid = 17386079 | pmc = 2265948 | doi = 10.1111/j.1365-2567.2007.02588.x }}</ref> however, the high degree of homology between the extracellular domains of CD32A and CD32C make differentiation difficult. == Functions and locations == === ''CD32A'' === CD32A is an activating subtype of CD32 that can be found on a variety of immune cells - notably, CD32A is found on [[platelet]]s, [[neutrophil]]s, [[macrophage]]s, and [[dendritic cell]]s (DCs). On platelets, it is known to aid in the internalization of IgG-[[Opsonin|opsonized]] ''[[Escherichia coli]]'', and it is more generally implicated in mediating bacterial-activated platelet responses.<ref name=":3" /> CD32A also plays an important role in platelet activation, adhesion, and aggregation in response to injured blood vessels.<ref name=":1" /> When bound to an IgG immune complex, the cytosolic ITAM can promote [[Phagocytosis|phagocytic activity]] and [[Cytokine|cytokine secretion]] in neutrophils and macrophages.<ref name=":0" /> CD32A is known to aid in the activation of [[Clathrin|clathrin coat]]-mediated endocytosis on various cell types. On DCs, CD32A plays an important role in maturation and the upregulation of [[B7 (protein)|costimulatory molecules]] on the cell surface, strengthening the DC's ability to [[Antigen presentation|present antigen]] to T cells. CD32A activation is necessary and sufficient to produce T cell anti-tumor cellular immunity. CD32A is also linked to [[autoimmunity]]; for example, the production of antibodies against [[platelet factor 4]] (PF4) bound to CD32A is linked to the development of [[heparin-induced thrombocytopenia]].<ref name=":3" /> CD32A is also found on [[Langerhans cell|Langerhans]] cells, [[mast cell]]s, [[basophil]]s, [[eosinophil]]s, [[monocyte]]s, [[megakaryocyte]]s, and a subpopulation of activated [[T helper cell|CD4+ T cells]]. CD32A is unique to primates.<ref name=":1" /> === ''CD32B'' === CD32B is an inhibitory surface receptor that is part of a large population of [[B cell]] co-receptors, which act to modulate signaling.<ref name=":1" /> Activated CD32B has the ability to cross-link with [[B-cell receptor|B cell receptors]] (BCRs), which increases the threshold for B cell activation and downregulates antibody production in the presence of IgG.<ref name=":2" /> This feedback loop lowers the production of IgG by B cells when there is a surplus of IgG in the body. CD32B is also found on the surface of [[follicular dendritic cells]] (FDCs), which utilize CD32B for the retention and recycling of immune complexes that they later present to B cells.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":4">{{cite journal | vauthors = Hill DL, Schofield L, Wilson DW | title = IgG opsonization of merozoites: multiple immune mechanisms for malaria vaccine development | journal = International Journal for Parasitology | volume = 47 | issue = 10–11 | pages = 585–595 | date = September 2017 | pmid = 28668325 | doi = 10.1016/j.ijpara.2017.05.004 }}</ref> Thus, CD32B plays an important role in both antibody and [[Immunological memory|memory immune responses]].<ref name=":1" /> The balance between CD32B and its activating counterparts is crucial to appropriate cell function. Having too little CD32B has been associated with dysregulated antibody function, as well as increased antibody-dependent inflammatory cell responses.<ref name=":1" /> Some individuals inheriting mutated, inactivate CD32B genes have a reduced risk of contracting malaria; this is attributed to an enhancement of FcR-dependent phagocytic functions.<ref name=":4" /> CD32B imbalance is also associated with autoimmunity. CD32B-deficient mice have been found to be more susceptible to immune-complex-mediated autoimmunity. Likewise, [[systemic lupus erythematosus]] (SLE) in humans is associated with a decrease in CD32B on the surface of [[memory B cell]]s. A decrease on dendritic cells is often found in patients with [[rheumatoid arthritis]].<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":2" /> The therapeutic usage of monoclonal antibodies against CD32B can be effective for inducing cytotoxicity against [[B-cell lymphoma|B cell lymphoma]] cells.<ref name=":1" /> CD32B is also found on basophils, neutrophils, monocytes, and macrophages.<ref name=":0" /> ==== Non-immune system locations ==== CD32B can be found on airway [[smooth muscle]] cells, as well as [[liver sinusoidal endothelial cell]]s and [[salivary gland]] epithelial cells.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":4" /> === ''CD32C'' === CD32C is expressed in ~20% of the human population, and is not well-understood.<ref name=":0" /> It can be found on B cells and [[Natural killer cell|natural killer]] (NK) cells. When expressed, CD32C plays an important role in the activation of [[Antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity|antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity]] (ADCC).<ref name=":1" /> Animal studies have linked CD32C to augmentation of pathological inflammatory responses.<ref name=":1" /> == See also == * [[FCGR2A]] * [[FCGR2B]] * [[Fc fragment of igg receptor iic (gene/pseudogene)|FCGR2C]] * [[Fc-gamma receptor]]s == References == {{reflist}} == External links == * {{MeshName|CD32+Antigens}} {{Clusters of differentiation}} {{Immune receptors}} [[Category:Clusters of differentiation]] [[Category:Fc receptors]]
