Immunohistochemical detection of Fc receptor. II. Electron microscopic demonstration of Fc receptor by using soluble immune complexes of ferritin-antiferritin immunoglobulin G

G Itoh and I Suzuki

The mouse mesenteric lymph node cells were incubated in the soluble immune complexes of ferritin-antiferritin immunoglobulin G at 37 degrees C for 20 min. After being washed, postfixed with OsO4 and dehydrated by degraded ethanol series, the lymph node cells were observed by electron microscope. Apprroximately 15% of the cells (mainly composed of small lymphocytes) bound ferritin particles to the cell surface. The distribution pattern of the binding of ferritin particles (ferritin-antiferritin immunoglobulin G) took the form of discrete patches of irregular distribution interspaced with unlabeled portions. The electron microscopic features of ferritin particles (ferritin-antiferritin immunoglobulin G) attached to the cell surface suggest that a structure of constant conformation (Fc receptor) situated in the cell membrane takes part in the binding of ferritin- antiferritin immunoglobulin G.
