Inhibitory Fc-Gamma IIb Receptor Signaling Induced by Multivalent IgG-Fc Is Dependent on Sialylation. Cells 2023; 12:2130. [PMID: 37681862 PMCID: PMC10486564 DOI: 10.3390/cells12172130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2023] [Revised: 08/05/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 09/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Immunoglobulin (IgG) Fc glycosylation has been shown to be important for the biological activity of antibodies. Fc sialylation is important for the anti-inflammatory activity of IgGs. However, evaluating the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of antibody Fc glycosylation has been hindered using simplified in vitro models in which antibodies are often displayed in monomeric forms. Presenting antibodies in monomeric forms may not accurately replicate the natural environment of the antibodies when binding their antigen in vivo. To address these limitations, we used different Fc-containing molecules, displaying their Fc domains in monovalent and multivalent fashion. Given the inhibitory role of Fc gamma receptor IIb (FcγRIIb) in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, we focused on evaluating the impact of Fc sialylation on the activation of FcγRIIb. We report for the first time that in human cellular systems, sialic acid mediates the induction of FcγRIIb phosphorylation by IgG-Fc when the IgG-Fc is displayed in a multivalent fashion. This effect was observed with different types of therapeutic agents such as sialylated anti-TNFα antibodies, sialylated IVIg and sialylated recombinant multivalent Fc products. These studies represent the first report of the specific effects of Fc sialylation on FcγRIIb signaling on human immune cells and may help in the characterization of the anti-inflammatory activity of Fc-containing therapeutic candidates.

Abstract
Antibody-based therapeutics are now standard in the treatment of neuroinflammatory diseases, and the spectrum of neurological diseases targeted by those approaches continues to grow. The efficacy of antibody-based drug platforms is largely determined by the specificity-conferring antigen-binding fragment (Fab) and the crystallizable fragment (Fc) driving antibody function. The latter provides specific instructions to the immune system by interacting with cellular Fc receptors and complement components. Extensive engineering efforts have enabled tuning of Fc functions to modulate effector functions and to prolong or reduce antibody serum half-lives. Technologies that improve bioavailability of antibody-based treatment platforms within the CNS parenchyma are being developed and could invigorate drug discovery for a number of brain diseases for which current therapeutic options are limited. These powerful approaches are currently being tested in clinical trials or have been successfully translated into the clinic. Here, we review recent developments in the design and implementation of antibody-based treatment modalities in neurological diseases.

Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus is a typical autoimmune disease with a complex etiology, including the interaction of genetic/epigenetic factors and environmental and hormonal factors with innate immune cells or B/T lymphocytes. Studies on possible therapeutic targets have been conducted in recent decades, motivated by developments in immunology and molecular engineering. The current treatment guidelines recommend conventional immunomodulation with glucocorticoid and antimalarial agents depending on disease severity. However, targeted therapy based on the diverse disease pathophysiology is still not established and widely applied. Furthermore, although rituximab, belimumab, and other conventional immunomodulators have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration and are widely used, several clinical trials testing other biological products have failed to show satisfactory results. This review introduces novel biological agents that can potentially improve therapeutic performance in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. These agents include humanized anti-CD20, anti-CD22, and anti-CD40L antibody; interferon α inhibitor; rigerimod; Bruton’s tyrosine kinase; and immunocomplex blockers.

Abstract
Since the first description of the administration of high doses of pooled serum IgG, also referred to as intravenous IgG (IVIg) therapy, as being able to ameliorate various autoimmune diseases, researchers have been investigating which molecular and cellular pathways underlie IVIg activity. Apart from trying to understand the obvious conundrum that IgG can trigger both autoimmune pathology and resolution of inflammation, the rapidly expanding use of IVIg has led to a lack of availability of this primary blood product, providing a strong rationale for developing recombinant alternatives. During the last decade, a tremendous number of novel insights into IVIg activity brought the goal of replacing IVIg within reach, at least in select indications, and has led to the initiation of several clinical trials. At the forefront of this effort is the modulation of autoantibody half-life and blocking access of autoantibodies to fragment cystallizable γ receptors (Fcγ receptors). In this rostrum article, we will briefly discuss current models of IVIg activity, followed by a more specific focus on novel therapeutic avenues that are entering the clinic and may replace IVIg in the future.

Abstract
The success of Intravenous Immunoglobulin in treating autoimmune and inflammatory processes such as immune thrombocytopenia purpura and Kawasaki disease has led to renewed interest in developing recombinant molecules capable of recapitulating these therapeutic effects. The anti-inflammatory properties of IVIG are, in part, due to the Fc region of the IgG molecule, which interacts with activating or inhibitory Fcγ receptors (FcγRs), the neonatal Fc Receptor, non-canonical FcRs expressed by immune cells and complement proteins. In most cases, Fc interactions with these cognate receptors are dependent upon avidity—avidity which naturally occurs when polyclonal antibodies recognize unique antigens on a given target. The functional consequences of these avid interactions include antibody dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity, antibody dependent cell phagocytosis, degranulation, direct killing, and/or complement activation—all of which are associated with long-term immunomodulatory effects. Many of these immunologic effects can be recapitulated using recombinant or non-recombinant approaches to induce Fc multimerization, affording the potential to develop a new class of therapeutics. In this review, we discuss the history of tolerance induction by immune complexes that has led to the therapeutic development of artificial Fc bearing immune aggregates and recombinant Fc multimers. The contribution of structure, aggregation and N-glycosylation to human IgG: FcγR interactions and the functional effect(s) of these interactions are reviewed. Understanding the mechanisms by which Fc multimers induce tolerance and attempts to engineer Fc multimers to target specific FcγRs and/or specific effector functions in autoimmune disorders is explored in detail.

Abstract
Objective Immune complexes (ICs) play a critical role in the pathology of autoimmune diseases. The aim of this study was to generate and characterise a first-in-class anti-FcγRIIA antibody (Ab) VIB9600 (previously known as MEDI9600) that blocks IgG immune complex-mediated cellular activation for clinical development. Methods VIB9600 was humanised and optimised from the IV.3 Ab. Binding affinity and specificity were determined by Biacore and ELISA. Confocal microscopy, Flow Cytometry-based assays and binding competition assays were used to assess the mode of action of the antibody. In vitro cell-based assays were used to demonstrate suppression of IC-mediated inflammatory responses. In vivo target suppression and efficacy was demonstrated in FcγRIIA-transgenic mice. Single-dose pharmacokinetic (PK)/pharmacodynamic study multiple dose Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) toxicity studies were conducted in non-human primates. Results We generated a humanised effector-deficient anti-FcγRIIA antibody (VIB9600) that potently blocks autoantibody and IC-mediated proinflammatory responses. VIB9600 suppresses FcγRIIA activation by blocking ligand engagement and by internalising FcγRIIA from the cell surface. VIB9600 inhibits IC-induced type I interferons from plasmacytoid dendritic cells (involved in SLE), antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-induced production of reactive oxygen species by neutrophils (involved in ANCA-associated vasculitis) and IC-induced tumour necrosis factor α and interleukin-6 production (involved in rheumatoid arthritis). In FcγRIIA transgenic mice, VIB9600 suppressed antiplatelet antibody-induced thrombocytopaenia, acute anti-GBM Ab-induced nephritis and anticollagen Ab-induced arthritis. VIB9600 also exhibited favourable PK and safety profiles in cynomolgus monkey studies. Conclusions VIB9600 is a specific humanised antibody antagonist of FcγRIIA with null effector function that warrants further clinical development for the treatment of IC-mediated diseases.

Abstract
Autoantibody immune complex (IC) activation of Fcγ receptors (FcγRs) is a common pathogenic hallmark of multiple autoimmune diseases. Given that the IC structural features that elicit FcγR activation are poorly understood and the FcγR system is highly complex, few therapeutics can directly block these processes without inadvertently activating the FcγR system. To address these issues, the structure activity relationships of an engineered panel of multivalent Fc constructs were evaluated using sensitive FcγR binding and signaling cellular assays. These studies identified an Fc valency with avid binding to FcγRs but without activation of immune cell effector functions. These observations directed the design of a potent trivalent immunoglobulin G-Fc molecule that broadly inhibited IC-driven processes in a variety of immune cells expressing FcγRs. The Fc trimer, Fc3Y, was highly efficacious in three different animal models of autoimmune diseases. This recombinant molecule may represent an effective therapeutic candidate for FcγR-mediated autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
Autoantibody immune complexes (ICs) mediate pathogenesis in multiple autoimmune diseases via direct interference with target function, complement fixation, and interaction with Fc-gamma receptors (FcγRs). Through high avidity interactions, ICs are able to crosslink low affinity FcγRs expressed on a wide variety of effector cells, leading to secretion of pro-inflammatory mediators and inducing cytotoxicity, ultimately resulting in tissue injury. Given their relevance in numerous autoimmune diseases, FcγRs have been considered as attractive therapeutic targets for the last three decades. However, a limited number of investigational drug candidates have been developed targeting FcγRs and only a few approved therapeutics have been associated with impacting FcγRs. This review provides a historical overview of the different therapeutic approaches used to target FcγRs for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.
