Antibodies play a crucial role in coupling the innate and adaptive immune responses against viral pathogens through their antigen binding domains and Fc-regions. Here, we describe how to measure the activation of Fc effector functions by monoclonal antibodies targeting the influenza virus hemagglutinin with the use of a genetically engineered Jurkat cell line expressing an activating type 1 Fc-FcγR. Using this method, the contribution of specific Fc-FcγR interactions conferred by immunoglobulins can be determined using an in vitro assay.
抗体通过其抗原结合域和Fc区域在针对病毒病原体的固有免疫和适应性免疫反应的耦合中发挥关键作用。在此,我们描述了如何使用表达激活型1 Fc-FcγR的基因工程Jurkat细胞系,通过靶向流感病毒血凝素的单克隆抗体来测量Fc效应器功能的激活。使用这种方法,可以通过体外试验确定免疫球蛋白赋予的特定Fc-FcγR相互作用的贡献。
