Microglial ingestion of the amyloid beta-peptide (Abeta) has been viewed as a therapeutic target in Alzheimer's disease, in that approaches that enhance clearance of Abeta relative to its production are predicted to result in decreased senile plaque formation, a proposed contributor to neuropathology. In vitro, scavenger receptors mediate ingestion of fibrillar Abeta (fAbeta) by microglia. However, the finding that cerebral amyloid deposition in a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease was diminished by inoculation with synthetic Abeta has suggested a possible therapeutic role for anti-Abeta Ab-mediated phagocytosis. Microglia also express C1qR(P), a receptor for complement protein C1q, ligation of which in vitro enhances phagocytosis of immune complexes formed with IgG levels below that required for optimal FcR-mediated phagocytosis. The data presented here demonstrate FcR-dependent ingestion of Abeta-anti-Abeta complexes (IgG-fAbeta) by microglia that is a function of the amount of Ab used to form immune complexes. In addition, C1q incorporated into IgG-fAbeta enhanced microglial uptake of these complexes when they contained suboptimal levels of anti-Abeta Ab. Mannose binding lectin and lung surfactant protein A, other ligands of C1qR(P), also enhanced ingestion of suboptimally opsonized IgG-fAbeta, whereas control proteins did not. Our data suggest that C1qR(P)-mediated events may promote efficient ingestion of Abeta at low Ab titers, and this may be beneficial in paradigms that seek to clear amyloid via FcR-mediated mechanisms by minimizing the potential for destructive Ab-induced complement-mediated processes.
