We have evaluated the expression of surface Fc gamma 2b/gamma 1R by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated murine spleen cells, the release of soluble Fc gamma 2b/gamma 1R by activated spleen cells, and the presence of circulating Fc gamma 2b/gamma 1R in mouse serum. LPS activation of murine spleen cells and a cloned B cell line, BCL-1 CW 13.20-3B3, resulted in a 5-10-fold increase in surface Fc gamma 2b/gamma 1R and the concominant appearance in the culture medium of a soluble molecule that is antigenically related to the Fc gamma 2b/gamma 1R. The increase in cell-associated and soluble Fc gamma 2b/gamma 1R after LPS activation is attributable primarily to B cells. Circulating Fc gamma 2b/gamma 1R was also detected in normal mouse serum at a concentration of 10(-9) to 10(-8) M. Levels of circulating Fc gamma 2b/gamma 1R increase with the age of the animals, and were low in adult germ-free mice and elevated in young mice with certain autoimmune diseases. The circulating Fc gamma 2b/gamma 1R bound to IgG-Sepharose, and was partially purified by affinity chromatography on 2.4G2 Fab-Sepharose. After radiolabeling and immunoprecipitation with rabbit anti-Fc gamma 2b/gamma 1R serum, one component of Mr 48,000, was detected.

Abstract Nonadherent spleen cells of mice infected with Trichinella spiralis released growth stimulatory factors (GSFs) in vitro when challenged with excretory/secretory products of muscle stage larvae. The assay of GSF was based on proliferation of normal, nonadherent syngeneic marrow cells in liquid tube cultures. Media conditioned for 1 day by challenged spleen cells stimulated eosinophil production but failed to stimulate production of other cell types. In contrast, media conditioned for 5 days supported eosinophil, neutrophil, and macrophage production. The kinetics of cell production were also different. Eosinophil production started within 1 day, reached a peak at day 2, and was down to control levels by day 4. In contrast, neutrophil/macrophage production began between 2 and 4 days and reached a peak at 6--8 days. The short duration of eosinophil production was evidently due to depletion of growth-factor-responsive cells.
