Creative Biolabs possesses significant expertise in analyzing and characterizing antibody Fc functions, particularly their interaction with Fc-gamma receptors (FcγRs) on immune cells, which can trigger immune responses like complement fixation. Our adaptable technology platform delivers comprehensive Fc receptor profiling services for custom antibodies, with a strong focus on in-depth FcγR binding analysis to enhance your research.

FcγR Introduction

Therapeutic antibodies often exert their effects by engaging immune effector mechanisms through their Fc regions, which bind to specific Fcγ receptors or complement proteins. Expressed on leukocytes, FcγRs are categorized into three classes (I, II, and III) with varying affinities and functions; for example, FcγRIIb inhibits while others activate via ITAM signaling. Receptor polymorphisms and antibody glycosylation impact binding. This Fc-FcγR interaction triggers crucial immune responses like effector cell recruitment, cytokine release, B cell activation, and cytotoxicity, with FcγRIIIa (CD16a) driving ADCC and FcγRIIa (CD32a) mediating ADCP.

FcγR Binding Assays at Creative Biolabs

Creative Biolabs offers comprehensive FcγR binding assays to characterize the interaction between antibody Fc regions and various Fc gamma receptors (FcγRs). Utilizing techniques like ELISA, flow cytometry, and surface plasmon resonance (SPR), we provide detailed kinetic data, including association and dissociation rates and affinity constants, for different IgG subtypes and Fc fusion proteins. These assays help researchers understand the mechanism of action of therapeutic antibodies and optimize their development by analyzing their potential to elicit immune responses through FcγR engagement.

Diverse FcγR Targets

Harnessing cutting-edge technologies and the expertise of our seasoned scientists, Creative Biolabs presents a versatile and dependable platform for in-depth analysis of FcγR binding profiles. Our comprehensive service provides researchers with the tools to thoroughly investigate antibody Fc region interactions with a wide array of FcγR targets (list below), complete with relevant positive controls.

Selective Quantification Approaches

Creative Biolabs is capable of performing FcγR binding assays for various IgG antibody isotypes (IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4) or Fc fusion proteins with different approaches, including but not limited to:

Multi-species Compatibility Assays

Creative Biolabs utilizes advanced surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technology for precise FcγR binding assessments. Our services encompass a range of assays to evaluate the FcγR binding capabilities of humanized antibodies.

Furthermore, we offer specialized services for evaluating FcRn and C1q binding interactions. Moreover, combining FcγR binding data with conventional cytotoxicity assays provides a thorough insight into the mechanism of action of an antibody. Understanding the possibility of differences in cytotoxicity results from in vitro to in vivo, particularly due to the influence of endogenous human serum IgG, it is essential to enhance Fc avidity and affinity for FcγRs to boost clinical effectiveness. To tackle this challenge, Creative Biolabs provides specialized Fc engineering services, employing genetic manipulation and glycoform modification to accurately adjust binding affinities for targeted FcγRs.
