A human mononuclear cell population, enriched with monocytes by adhering them to microexudate on Petri dishes previously used for fibroblast cultures was used in a homologous human system to form EA rosettes. IgG1, Fc, and subfragments of Fc representing the C gamma 2 and C gamma 3 domains were tested for their ability to inhibit rosette formation. Although Fc and IgG were equally effective in inhibiting rosette formation over the concentration range 10(-6) to 10(-5) M, all subfragments were inactive at these concentrations. At 10-fold higher concentrations the C gamma 2 fragment was still inactive; however, both the C gamma 3 fragments, pFc' and at C gamma 3, did show significant activity at this higher level. Reduction and alkylation diminished the inhibitory capacity of IgG 10-fold but had a lesser effect on Fc. In a parallel series of experiments the ability of IgG and Fc to inhibit granulocyte rosettes was found to be markedly diminished by reduction and alkylation in both cases. These experiments reveal differences between Fc receptors in different cells, confirm a role for the C gamma 3 homology region in monocyte Fc receptor recognition, but do suggest a requirement, either direct or indirect, for the C gamma 2 domain.
