IgG Fc membrane receptor on normal human glomerular visceral epithelial cells. 1984

R Mancilla-Jimenez, and M D Appay, and B Bellon, and J Kuhn, and J Bariety, and P Druet

This study demonstrates that human glomerular epithelial cells are able to bind heat aggregated immunoglobulins and antigen-antibody complexes. This has been observed on kidney cryostat sections, on whole glomeruli and on cultured visceral epithelial cells. Binding depends on the presence of the Fc portion of IgG and occurs in the absence of complement, showing that the IgG Fc receptor is different from the C3b receptor. The use of heat aggregated anti-peroxidase IgG and of peroxidase anti-peroxidase complexes allowed us to demonstrate, at the ultrastructural level, that the binding of the reagents at the plasma membrane was followed by their internalization within coated pits of vesicles. These observations strongly suggest that glomerular visceral epithelial cells are capable of receptor mediated endocytosis. The role of this process in glomerular diseases remains to be established.

D007678 Kidney Glomerulus A cluster of convoluted capillaries beginning at each nephric tubule in the kidney and held together by connective tissue. Glomerulus, Kidney
D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy

D011971 Receptors, Immunologic Cell surface molecules on cells of the immune system that specifically bind surface molecules or messenger molecules and trigger changes in the behavior of cells. Although these receptors were first identified in the immune system, many have important functions elsewhere.
