چکیده

Antibody effector functions have been shown to be influenced by the structure of the Fc N-glycans. Here we studied the changes in plasma or serum IgG Fc N-glycosylation upon vaccination of 10 Caucasian adults and 10 African children. Serum/plasma IgG was purified by affinity chromatography prior to and at two time points after vaccination. Fc N-glycosylation profiles of individual IgG subclasses were determined for both total IgG and affinity-purified anti-vaccine IgG using a recently developed fast nanoliquid chromatography-electrospray ionization MS (LC-ESI-MS) method. While vaccination had no effect on the glycosylation of total IgG, anti-vaccine IgG showed increased levels of galactosylation and sialylation upon active immunization. Interestingly, the number of sialic acids per galactose increased during the vaccination time course, suggesting a distinct regulation of galactosylation and sialylation. In addition we observed a decrease in the level of IgG1 bisecting N-acetylglucosamine whereas no significant changes were observed for the level of fucosylation. Our data indicate that dependent on the vaccination time point the infectious agent will encounter IgGs with different glycosylation profiles, which are expected to influence the antibody effector functions relevant in immunity.

Fc-Glycosylation in Human IgG1 and IgG3 Is Similar for Both Total and Anti-Red-Blood Cell Anti-K Antibodies

After albumin, immunoglobulin G (IgG) are the most abundant proteins in human serum, with IgG1 and IgG3 being the most abundant subclasses directed against protein antigens. The quality of the IgG-Fc-glycosylation has important functional consequences, which have been found to be skewed toward low fucosylation in some antigen-specific immune responses. This increases the affinity to IgG1-Fc-rec...

IgG fc N-glycosylation changes in Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome and myasthenia gravis.

N-glycosylation of the immunoglobulin Fc moiety influences its biological activity by, for example, modulating the interaction with Fc receptors. Changes in IgG glycosylation have been found to be associated with various inflammatory diseases. Here we evaluated for the first time IgG Fc N-glycosylation changes in well-defined antibody-mediated autoimmune diseases, that is, the neurological diso...

Coupling porous sheathless interface MS with transient-ITP in neutral capillaries for improved sensitivity in glycopeptide analysis.

IgG antibodies are modulated in their function by the specific structure of the N-glycans attached to their Fc (fragment crystallizable) portions. However, the glycosylation analysis of antigen-specific IgGs is a challenging task as antibody levels to a given antigen only represent a fraction of the total IgG levels. Here, we investigated the use of a transient-ITP (t-ITP)--MS method for highly...

Fc-glycosylation of IgG1 is modulated by B-cell stimuli.

We have recently shown that IgG1 directed against antigens thought to be involved in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis harbor different glycan moieties on their Fc-tail, as compared with total sera IgG1. Given the crucial roles of Fc-linked N-glycans for the structure and biological activity of IgG, Fc-glycosylation of antibodies is receiving considerable interest. However, so far little...
