Human C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute phase protein that binds to receptors on human and mouse leukocytes. We have recently determined that the high and low affinity receptors for CRP on human leukocytes are Fc gamma RIIa and Fc gamma RI, respectively. Previous work by others suggested that CRP receptors on mouse macrophages are distinct from Fc gamma R, We have taken advantage of the availability of mice deficient in one or more Fc gamma R to reexamine the role of Fc gamma R in CRP binding to mouse leukocytes, Three strains of Fc gamma R-deficient mice were examined: gamma-chain-deficient mice that lack Fc gamma RI and Fc gamma RIII Fc gamma RII-deficient mice, and mice deficient in both gamma-chain and Fc gamma RII that lack all Fc gamma R, No binding of CRP was detected to leukocytes from double-deficient mice, indicating that Fc gamma R are required for CRP binding. CRP binding to leukocytes front gamma-chain-deficient and Fc gamma RII-deficient mice was reduced compared with binding to leukocytes from wild-type mice. Further analysis of CRP binding to macrophages, neutrophils, and lymphocytes provides direct evidence that Fc gamma RIIb1, Fc gamma RIIb2. and Fc gamma RI are the receptors for CRP on mouse Leukocytes, These findings may have important implications in understanding the physiological function of CRP.
